"The reason why it does not scare because I don't find the phrase scary and does God suppose to be good and such? Isn't God scary, right? If it was I Am The Devil; I would be scared of the devil. The Devil. The devil is more terrifying than God so why do people write I Am The Devil rather than I Am God. I just don't understand it at all. Please try to explain this, to make me understand because I'm trying so hard."

Well, it's not related to the actual reason why the phrase is used (to imply great power), if you think the Abrahamic God is the good guy and the Devil is scary then you didn't read deep enough into any holy book. Most versions of God describe abilities that imply it's downright sadistic. It committed multiple genocides and don't get me started on the concept of hell.

I really don't see why the Devil would seem scary.
