Hebrews 11: 26
Moses regarded disgrace for the sake
of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was
looking ahead to his reward.
Moses was
remembered for the legacy of his great faith in God and because of this, God
favoured him throughout his life and his name is recorded for all posterity and
world history. His faith became an icon for the believers throughout history to
emulate.
The whole
chapter of Hebrews 11 was devoted to the records of the men and women of faith
in the Old Testament. History will remember what we do whether it is something
great and beneficial to society or whether it is some notoriously bad.
Even the
bible records such great names, some are kings, some are ordinary people but people
who do great exploits have their legacy recorded for eternity.
Even in the
church culture, many great men and women have their names recorded. We have a
pattern to follow and God has given us the bible as our working manual. It
would be an incentive for us to do well here on earth as our success or failure
will follow us through to the next world.
Let us be
faithful learning from the examples of the saints who have gone before us.
