“By faith Moses, when he was come to
years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
Choosing rather to suffer affliction with
the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming
the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had
respect unto the recompense of the reward.
By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath
of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.”
To live by faith is to know what to esteem
as important to your life and living. There are things that must become very
valuable to you more than others. You cannot esteem everything the same way.
For instance, you must esteem the word of God of greater value than the word of
man. You must esteem spending time in prayer and in fellowship with God of
greater value than watching television.
