Because instead of becoming just another army commander seizing the throne, it would make him emperor 'by the grace of God', thus enormously enhancing his status.

A:The day prior to the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, Constantine claimed that he had seen a cross in the sky, and the words, "By this sign you will conquer" inscribed in the sky. That night, he said that he had a dream, telling him that the Christian God would ensure his victory. The Christian historian, Eusebius recorded this after Constantine's death, but implied that the emperor was not altogether telling the truth about his vision.

Even before the Battle of the Milvian Bridge, an acolyte reported that Constantine had seen a vision of the god Apollo in the sky to show Constantine that he would be victorious in an earlier battle. Whether this story inspired Constantine to tell the Christian story, or whether he genuinely believed that both Apollo and the Christian God helped him, may never be known.
