Moses was in an altogether different plane compared to the sons of Israel. He wasn't just occupied with God's action—splitting the Red Sea and Mana falling down. These are all exciting things for the sons of Israel, you know, being healed from snake bites. Moses was not taken up with all that. [00:57:16]

God saw that in his heart and God showed him things which he could not show any of the other children of Israel. He got Revelation. What we heard today is very, very important. I believe it's the thing that can make the difference in your life between knowledge of the Lord which is intellectual and a knowledge of the Lord which is spiritual. [01:85:24]

The man Moses was very humble, more than any man on the face of the Earth. That was the reason why he got Revelation more than any man on the face of the Earth. Throughout the ages, God has always looked for humble people, those who do not think highly of themselves, those who don't think they are better than others. [02:146:879]

Moses had been in Pharaoh's Palace for 40 years, and when he grew up, means when he came to the age of 40, there were three decisions that he took. One in relation to the honor of this world. I don't want to be known as the next Pharaoh. I am the son of Pharaoh's daughter. [03:239:92]

Moses knew the ways of God. He got Revelation, and his whole attitude to sin changed completely. Did Moses know there was pleasure in sin? Sure, it says the pleasures of sin is one of the verses in the Bible who says there is pleasure in sin, but he rejected it because he'd seen God. [06:361:319]

When you get Revelation, you're willing to suffer with God's people, to be misunderstood, to be rejected, despised. Paul was called a false teacher in his day, but people like Timothy and Titus and all were very happy to be associated with Paul. The true Servants of God are always called false teachers in their lifetime. [07:435:56]

Moses said, I want to suffer with God's people. I don't want any of this honor. And then you see another thing here, another thing he rejected, The Riches of Egypt. Egypt was the richest country in the whole world, the treasures of Egypt. I can't imagine what it was. [08:534:6]

When our whole attitude to Money Changes and you say I'm not interested in making money, you got Revelation. But if you've only understood truth and these—the honor of men, the pleasures of sin, and the riches of this world—that still draw you inside, I want to urge you, don't miss out on God's best. [09:562:76]

I know it changed my life. I was a young man with great Ambitions in this world, and when Christ gave me Revelation, it completely—it wasn't a gradual change. Suddenly, I suddenly lost interest in honor, sin, and money. It was not a gradual thing over 20 years. [10:608:079]

All that the world considers important, I've dumped it all in the garbage. It's something like that in The Message Bible. I've dumped it all in the garbage, all that this world considers important. It's all garbage to me, like we sing in that chorus, Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. [11:678:44]

All of a sudden, Revelation hit one of them. He wasn't listening to a servant. I don't know what it was. I think in his heart, God saw some humility despite his being a crook and a robber, and he suddenly got Revelation and said, boy, this is the Messiah whom I've been speaking like this to. [13:798:72]

Let's pray. Don't let those words fall to the ground. Don't push it away for someone else to take heed to. However much you are advanced in the Christian Life, my brother, sister, seek for more Revelation. There's more that God has to give us. [14:869:519]
