VIDEO: Being A Living Sacrifice To Overcome—Lance Lambert

Описание: Lance Lambert explores the profound meaning of being an overcomer through the lens of Romans 12 and Revelation 12:11. In this powerful teaching from the 2010 Christian Family Conference, Lambert challenges the common misconception that overcomers are an elite group of super-Christians, instead revealing that every believer is designed by God to be an overcomer through becoming a living sacrifice.

Lambert draws from decades of ministry experience to illustrate how being a living sacrifice is not about elitism or superiority, but about surrendering our will to God's will. He shares that an overcomer is simply "someone who is in the full will of God at the end of their life"—a definition he received from T. Austin-Sparks.

This message addresses the fear many believers have of God's will, showing through personal testimony that God's will is always good, acceptable, and perfect. Lambert emphasises that without becoming a living sacrifice, there is no spiritual progress, growth, or advancement in the Christian life.

The seven consequences of being a living sacrifice include:
1. Spiritually intelligent worship and service
2. Freedom from being moulded by the world
3. Transformation through the renewing of the mind
4. Proving God's good, acceptable, and perfect will
5. Sober self-assessment
6. Discovery of the body of Christ
7. Development of spiritual character
