Our Lord Jesus Christ utterly demolished Satan, crushing him under His feet as He rose triumphantly from the dead, securing our ultimate victory! Satan stands defeated, powerless against us, facing his eternal destiny in the lake of fire! Keep looking UP Jesus is coming!
👉🏼As our day approaches, the spiritual warfare is ramping up. The enemy is launching his most potent attacks against us, but none of them will succeed, for we are shielded by the blood of Jesus Christ! No weapon formed against us shall prosper!
👉🏼Paul told the Romans to watch out for the enemy's schemes.
📖"And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly."
Romans 16:20
If Paul were alive today, he'd probably say in modern terms:
📖🔊"Hey, Church, prepare to crush those demons with your feet. Lift your foot high and slam it down on them, squishing them like grapes into wine or breaking their bones until they're destroyed."
💣"Bruise" meant crushing grapes for wine, but it also meant breaking bones to bits.
💣"Shortly" comes from Roman soldiers marching strong and loud to clear their path. They'd stomp and pound, not stopping for anything or anyone in their way. They just kept on marching, stepping over whatever came their way.
👉🏼Paul told us how to crush it, wearing our spiritual armor‼️
📖"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." Eph 6:10
🛡️THE ARMOR OF GOD: Eph 6:14-18
1. Truth: Know the truth, believe the truth, and speak the truth.
2. Righteousness: Just chill knowing that we're declared righteous because of what Christ did for us on the cross.
3. Gospel: Keep spreading the gospel no matter how tough it gets. Just keep pushing through!
4. Faith: Stand strong in our faith, trusting God’s promises no matter how strongly we are attacked.
5. Salvation: Our strongest defense is knowing without a doubt that we're saved, a confidence that no spiritual attack can shake.
6. The Word of God: Our offensive weapon is the Scripture, not our own opinions, or our feelings.
7. Prayer: Pray always and pray for the Church.
🔊 Jesus destroyed Satan’s power over us through His death and resurrection. He gave us the power over him and He expects us to use it. Know you are saved, speak the truth, rest in your righteousness, stand firm in your faith, preach the gospel, and use the Word of God when the enemy attacks and pray!
🔊Keep marching, keep moving forward, don't let the enemy stop you, keep smashing him under your feet, and KEEP LOOKING UP! OUR REDEMPTION DRAWS NEAR!

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved." He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3:16-18)
