In the baptism and anointing of Jesus, we see he is not only with us, but that he is so for us, that he is put on this world to fight for us. He is anointed by and empowered by the Spirit to go from these waters into conflict with Satan, who oppresses us all. Hey its one thing to know God is with you and for you. That is a powerful truth that we live into when we are baptized. God loves me. God delights in me. God is for me and is pouring out his spirit on me.
