The man of faith understands the brevity

of sin’s rewards.


In Egypt, Moses enjoyed 3 great benefits:

• He had position.• He had pleasures.• He had prosperity.


We are a lot like Moses early years in Pharoah’s Court:• We are obsessed with titles

and a will to power.


We are a lot like Moses early years in Pharoah’s Court:• Our will to power is only

exceeded by our will to pleasure.


We are a lot like Moses early years in Pharoah’s Court:• Our will to prosper is so great that it has twisted the most noble elements of our society.


David Roper“The Strength

of a Man”


There is a very definite

structure to this passage in Hebrews:

Rejecting the Fruits of Worldliness Moses24 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.

Why did Moses walk away from the Three “P’s” (Power, Pleasure and Prosperity)?

•Two of these “causal phrases” answer this question.•because he was looking ahead to his reward.•because understood the brevity of sins rewards.

Third Post

The man of faith understands that there

is “Power in the blood”.


Hebrews 11:27 (CEV)

27 Because of his faith, Moses left Egypt. Moses had seen the invisible God and wasn’t afraid of the king’s anger.


Hebrews 11

28 By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.


Numbers 12:3 (NIV)

Now Moses was a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth.
