Hebrews 11:23-26

By faith Moses' parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king's edict. By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter. He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God rather than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a short time. He regarded disgrace for the sake of Christ as of greater value than the treasures of Egypt, because he was looking ahead to his reward.

By faith Moses' parents hid him for three months after he was born
Exodus 2:2 ... and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son. When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him for three months.

and they were not afraid of the king's edict
Exodus 1:16 "When you help the Hebrew women in childbirth and observe them on the delivery stool, if it is a boy, kill him; but if it is a girl, let her live."
Exodus 1:22 Then Pharaoh gave this order to all his people: "Every boy that is born you must throw into the Nile, but let every girl live."

By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be known as the son of Pharaoh's daughter
Exodus 2:10-11 When the child grew older she took him to Pharaoh's daughter and he became her son. She named him Moses, saying "I drew him out of the water." One day, after Moses had grown up, he went out to where his own people were and watched them at their hard labor. He saw an Egyptian beating a Hebrew, one of his own people.

He chose to be mistreated along with the people of God
Hebrews 11:37 They were stoned; they were sawn in two; they were put to death by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, persecuted and mistreated-- ...

He regarded disgrace
Hebrews 13:13 Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.

for the sake of Christ
Luke 14:33 "In the same way, any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple."

because he was looking ahead to his reward
Hebrews 10:35-36 So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.
