Romans 16:20 And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
Are you facing unfair persecution?
Judas Iscariot was one of Jesus’ trusted disciples. He spent more time, witnessed more miracles, and forged a stronger bond with Jesus than most people.
But none of this mattered when 30 pieces of silver were presented to him in exchange for his betrayal. Have you wondered how Jesus felt when one of his own stabbed Him in the back?
On that gloomy Friday, Jesus was flogged, persecuted, and crucified. While the demons in hell rejoiced and celebrated our Saviour’s pain, the people closest to Him were in deep mourning.
Little did satan know, that crucifixion Friday was not an isolated incident. There was a resurrection Sunday to follow. In the meantime, the Lord Jesus stepped into hell and called satan out for a radical showdown. He destroyed satan’s power over sin and set us free through the priceless gift of salvation. In essence, He crushed satan under His feet and gave us the blueprint to do the same.
Often, we are faced with betrayal and persecution for no fault of ours. Remember, your Friday has arrived. Satan may be rejoicing, but he doesn’t know that Friday won’t last for long! We have a resurrection Sunday ahead of us! Prepare for victory because God is going to crush satan under your feet shortly!
