EB 11:27{If we were always doing everything just as if we saw Him, whom having not seen we love, how different our lives would be! How much happier too! These words were said of Moses; and this seeing Him by faith had three effects. (1) "He forsook Egypt"; it made him ready to give up anything for his God, and God's people. It made him true and loyal to God's cause. What did he care for anything else, so long as he saw "Him who is invisible"? (2) It took away all his fear. What was "the wrath of the king" to him, when Jehovah was by his side? Of what should he be afraid? (3) It enabled him to "endure," to wait patiently for forty years in the desert, and then to work patiently for forty years in the wilderness; and only think how strength-giving that sight of faith must be which enabled him to endure everything for eighty years! Try for yourself today what was such great help to Moses.
"From glory unto glory!" Though tribulation fall,
It cannot touch our treasure, when Christ is all in all!
Whatever lies before us, there can be naught to fear,
For what are pain and sorrow when Jesus Christ is near?
