"The breaker is come up before them." — Micah 2:13 

Now that Jesus has gone before us, things remain not as they would have been had He never passed that way. 

He has conquered every rival that obstructed the way. 

Cheer up now you faint-hearted warrior. Not only has Christ travelled the road, but He has slain your enemies. 

Do you dread sin? He has nailed it to His cross.  

Do you fear death? He has been the death of Death.  

Are you afraid of hell? He has barred it against the appearance of any of His children; they shall never see the gulf of eternal punishment.  

Whatever opposer may be before the Christian, they are all overcome.  

There are lions, but their teeth are broken; there are serpents, but their fangs are extracted; there are rivers, but they are bridged or passable; there are flames, but we wear that matchless garment which renders us invulnerable to fire.  

The sword that has been forged against us is already made dull; the instruments of war which the enemy is preparing have already lost their point.  

God has taken away in the person of Christ all the power that anything can have to hurt us. Well then, the army may safely march on, and you may go joyously along your journey, for all your enemies are conquered beforehand. 

What shall you do but march on to take the prey?  

They are beaten, they are vanquished; all you must do is divide the spoil. You shall, it is true, often engage in combat; but your fight shall be with a vanquished enemy. 

His head is broken; he may attempt to injure you, but his strength shall not be sufficient for his spiteful design.  

Your victory shall be easy, and your treasure shall be beyond all count. 

"Proclaim aloud the Saviour's fame, 
Who bears the Breaker's wond'rous name; 
Sweet name; and it becomes him well, 
Who breaks down earth, sin, death, and hell."
