Moses: Bema Seat of Christ 7

Moses spent the first 40 years of life being raised to be Pharaoh of Egypt.  

He gladly left all that wood, hay, and stubble  behind.  YHWH freed His people through Moses. Moses always looked ahead to his reward at Messiah's bema seat.  Scripture tells us:  BY FAITH MOSES, WHEN HE HAD GROWN UP, REFUSED TO BE CALLED A SON OF PHARAOH'S DAUGHTER, BECAUSE HE PREFERRED BEING MISTREATED WITH GOD'S PEOPLE TO ENJOYING THE PLEASURES OF SIN FOR A SHORT TIME.  HE THOUGHT THAT BEING INSULTED FOR THE SAKE OF THE MESSIAH WAS OF GREATER VALUE THAN THE TREASURES OF EGYPT, BECAUSE HE WAS LOOKING AHEAD TO HIS REWARD.  BY FAITH HE LEFT EGYPT, WITHOUT BEING AFRAID OF THE KING'S ANGER AND HE PERSEVERED BECAUSE HE SAW THE ONE WHO IS INVISIBLE.  BY FAITH HE ESTABLISHED THE PASSOVER AND THE SPRINKLING OF BLOOD TO KEEP THE DESTROYER OF THE FIRSTBORN FROM TOUCHING THE PEOPLE. (Heb. 11;24-28 ISV) 

The Sacred Writings reveal to us that faith is pure gold that pleases God.  NOW WITHOUT FAITH IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PLEASE GOD, FOR WHOEVER COMES TO HIM MUST BELIEVE THAT HE EXISTS AND THAT HE REWARDS THOSE WHO SEEK HIM. (He. 11:6 ISV)  We can bank faith in heaven.  FAITH, HOPE, AND LOVE ENDURE FOREVER... (Epistles)
