Before Moses was called by God, he was a shepherd and was not eloquent.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.studylight.org/study-desk.html?q1=Exodus+6%3A12&q2=&ss=0&t1=eng_n84&t2=eng_kjv&t3=eng_nas&ns=0&sr=1&ot=bhs&nt=wh&hv1=1&b=verse&d=3 |title=Exodus 6:12 |publisher= |quote=}}</ref> However, after receiving God’s call, he became a leader of 600,000 Israelite men and led them into Canaan. This enlightens us to the fact that '''when God calls us for a mission, He gives us power to carry it out'''. God does not use those who are wise and strong in the world, but rather, He uses those who humble themselves and believe that it is God who gives them all their abilities. | Before Moses was called by God, he was a shepherd and was not eloquent.<ref>{{Cite web |url=https://www.studylight.org/study-desk.html?q1=Exodus+6%3A12&q2=&ss=0&t1=eng_n84&t2=eng_kjv&t3=eng_nas&ns=0&sr=1&ot=bhs&nt=wh&hv1=1&b=verse&d=3 |title=Exodus 6:12 |publisher= |quote=}}</ref> However, after receiving God’s call, he became a leader of 600,000 Israelite men and led them into Canaan.

Moses is recorded as one of the forefathers of faith in the [[book of Hebrews]] of the [[New Testament]]. Moses grew up as the son of an Egyptian princess, but he abandoned the wealth, power, and honor he had in Egypt, and chose to be mistreated with God’s people. It was because he looked ahead to his rewards from God rather than for the pleasure of the world. | Moses is recorded as one of the forefathers of faith in the [[book of Hebrews]] of the [[The New Testament|New Testament]].

{{quote5 |내용=By faith Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter when he was grown up. He chose to be mistreated with God’s people instead of having the temporary pleasures of sin. He thought that the abuses he suffered for Christ were more valuable than the treasures of Egypt, since he was looking forward to the reward. By faith he left Egypt without being afraid of the king’s anger. He kept on going as if he could see what is invisible. By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of blood, in order that the destroyer could not touch their firstborn children.|출처=Common English Bible, Hebrews 11:24–28}} | {{quote5 |내용=By faith Moses refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter when he was grown up.
