The Faith Of The Patriarchs, And The Faith Of Moses

Hebrews 11:20-31, By faith Isaac blessed Jacob, and Esau in regards to their future.By faith Jacob, when he was dying, Blessed each of Joseph's sons and worship as he leaned on the top of his staff. By faith Joseph, when his end was near, Spoke about the exodus of the Israelite's from Egypt, and gave instructions about his bones. [Genesis 47: 28-31] By faith Moses parents hid him for three months, after he was born, because they saw that he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the kings commandment. By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. He choose to be mistreated along with the people of God. Rather then to enjoy the pleasure of sin for a short time. Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: because he was looking ahead to his reward. [Exodus 2:1-10] By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the Kings anger: he preserved because he saw him [God] who is Invisible. Through faith he kept the Passover, and the sprinkling of blood, less He that destroyed the first born should touch  them. By Faith, they passed through the red sea, as by dry land:  [Exodus 12:21],

Hebrews 11:30- By faith, the walls of Jericho fell, after the people had marched around them  seven days. [Joshua 6:1-20,] By faith Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient. [Joshua 2:1-10,] And What more can I say? I do not have time to tell about Gideon, Judges 6:11-ch,8:22, Barak, Judges 5:1, Samson, Judges 13: 24, Judges 11:1-17, David, 1 Samuel, 17:20-58, And The prophets, who through faith, conquered kingdoms, administered justice, and shut the mouth of the lions, quenched the fury of the flames, and escaped the edge of the sword; whose weakness was turned to strength; and who became powerful in battle and routed foreign armies. Women received back there dead raised to life again. Others were tortured and refused to be released, So that they might gain a better Resurrection. some faced jeers, flogging, Some were put in Chains, in prison. They were Stoned, Some were Sawed in two, They were put to death, by the Sword they went about in Sheepskins, and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated The world was not worthy of them. They wondered in deserts and mountains, and in Caves, and in holes in the ground.   These were all Commended  for their faith, yet none of them Received what had been promised.      God had planned something better for us so that only to gather with us would they be made perfect.      
God Had also provided better things for the Church, His Saints, and with Obedience, hope, patients, and faith in our Lord Jesus Christ, We also will increased in the faith that we possessed. God is near and always available, As believers put their trust and Confidence  in His words, We are encouraged  to keep on, keeping on, Our Salvation is near, Jesus promise is true. And He Understand all our groaning.[ 2 Timothy 1:5, When Paul wrote to encouraged and strengthen Timothy in prayer.  What ever good that we do God Should first get the glory, As with Paul, he never fail to magnified Christ, and the grace of God which brings Salvation, and free grace to the world. No one else could deliver and Secure our Soul through the trials of life and death. that is why Paul exhorts Timothy to hold fast the Holy Scriptures, the gospel of truth. So many heroes of faith trusted in God and gave their lives to him. [James 2: 21-26] Hebrews 6:13, John 6:31-32, [ John 6:14-15,Jesus the true Prophesied, do you know Him?
