A Study of Faith Part 11 (Hebrews 11:23-29)
Bob Schultz, November 27, 2016Part of the Book of Hebrews series, preached at a Sunday Morning service
Today we will be challenged to greater faith by using the example of Moses. Specifically faith chooses certain things, and faith refuses certain things, so that we would grow in our own faith for the glory of God.
Hebrews 11:23–29 (Listen)
23 By faith Moses, when he was born, was hidden for three months by his parents, because they saw that the child was beautiful, and they were not afraid of the king’s edict. 24 By faith Moses, when he was grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter, 25 choosing rather to be mistreated with the people of God than to enjoy the fleeting pleasures of sin. 26 He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward. 27 By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured as seeing him who is invisible. 28 By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.
29 By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.
