Who Do You Day I Am?

In Matthew 16:13-16, Jesus said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”

Jesus asked the disciples who they thought He was. They had spent a lot of time with Him traveling the country. People had been healed of sickness and disease. Others were raised from the dead.

Jesus taught with authority and depth no one had ever seen and heard before.

Reading this scripture it made me wonder what people would say if I asked them that same question.

“Who do you say that I am?”

What would their answer be? 

Am I someone I want to be? 

Am I being the person I know I can be?

Who do people say you are? 

Who does God want you to be?

Who has God made you to be? 

He has good plans for you, a future and a hope.

Make the changes in your life so you get the answer you want to the questions above. 

Pray for God’s help, only He can make lasting changes in all of us.

Matthew 16:13–17 (NKJV)

13 When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” 14 So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.
