September 10 | Daily Devotion | Pleasing God by Dying to Our Own Will | Zac Poonen
Summary
The speaker uses the example of Jesus' baptism by John the Baptist to illustrate that pleasing God requires being willing to be misunderstood. Jesus willingly went through the public rite despite having no sin, demonstrating his commitment to the Father's will over personal comfort or understanding. Ultimately, baptism for Jesus symbolized dying to his own will and living only to please the Father.

Zac Poonen - A Message on Baptism
Zac Poonen · Sep 26, 2019
The speaker distinguishes between John's baptism of repentance and the baptism commanded by Jesus. While John's baptism acknowledges past sin, Jesus' baptism signifies a desire to be united with Christ in his death to sin, leading to the power of his resurrection. True baptism involves a complete immersion, symbolizing the burial of the old self and the reliance on God to raise the believer to a new life.
