THAT FAITH WHICH CHOOSES ETERNITY WITH CHRIST OVER TEMPORAL THINGS
The book of Hebrews teaches that it was “by faith” that Moses chose to be identified with God’s people rather than remain as the adopted son of Pharoah’s daughter. Moses was further commended for his faith in that he considered it better to suffer for “Christ” and look to a greater future reward with God, than it was to own the worldly treasures of Egypt. For the Lord had revealed to Moses that He would one day “raise up” a Prophet from among his “brethren” who would speak every word the Lord told him to say to them (Deut. 18:15-19). This Prophet would be the Lord’s “Anointed One” (Which from the Hebrew is called “Messiah” and from Greek is called the “Christ”). Of whom, the Lord God had certainly revealed some aspect of to Moses. And for whom, Moses had by faith looked to and “written” about. For didn’t the Lord Jesus Himself say, “If you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me” (John 5:46).
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank You that the Christ that Moses looked forward to, has been revealed to us. For it is by faith in Him that we have become Your children. Now help us to live by faith as we look to that Day when Christ returns. In Jesus’ name, amen.
