We don’t just “come through” these things
We are MORE than conquerors - Greek comes from a word group that means:
To win overwhelmingly, to completely vanquish the foe, so that everyone around can see that it has happened
People SEE the difference in your life
peace
stability
How does this happen?
Our text tells us that:
We are more than conquerors through him who loved us
This overwhelming victory comes THROUGH Jesus Christ - and not in any other way
THROUGH him -
What does “through Him” mean?
Best and shortest definition is:
“Through Him” = because of Him
because of his love
because of his power
because of his promises to us
because of His word IN us
GET THIS - because of your relationship with/to Him
What happens BECAUSE OF Him depends on your relationship with Him
Let me show you a key passage:
Your relationship with Him depends on the service you give Him.
Some give a lot of “lip service” but no “life service”
Its those who give the “life service” who become more than conquerors through him
THROUGH HIM
IMMERSED IN HIM AND HIS WAYS
MORE THAN A CONQUEROR!!
I overwhelmingly win!!
But it is THROUGH HIM that this happens
Today is a special day, so I want to spend a little time talking about:
Overwhelming Your Enemies
WHY should I be baptized?
What does baptism do?
Baptism in water opens the door to God’s kingdom.
Kingdom of God - where HE rules and reigns, where HE takes care of everything, where HE takes care of his children, where HE fights the battles
Baptism in water is a commitment to God that when I pass through the door into His kingdom, I’m leaving my past behind.
Cloud - God
Sea - Water
They went in slaves and came out free.
They went in running from a past that was hot on their heels and came out free of that past - all by the power of God.
DON’T MISS:  they were baptized in the cloud AND in the sea.
AND they were baptized INTO Moses - as we are baptized into Christ.
The baptism worked to unite them with Moses - the one that God had chosen to take them into the promised land.
We are baptized into Christ - the one chosen by God to take US into the promised land.
Once the Red Sea closed, there was no going back - no chance to return to the old life.
Baptism in water is your promise that you trust God and His power to deliver you.
Baptism prepares me for life service with Him
Its like cleaning and tuning up your car to get it ready for a trip with special guests.
My conscience is clear - I’ve done what you’ve told me to do
I’ve left my past behind
I believe in your resurrection power
I’m ready to go to work with you
Its through life service with Christ that we become more than conquerors through Him
