Romans 16:20 - The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
Message: Satan Crushed Under Our Feet
Time: Written in AD 57 from Greece, to the Christians, both Gentile and Jewish in Rome.
What the Lord is Saying:
In the book of Romans, this is the first mention of Satan. Paul has been talking about people that cause divisions and obstacles in the church. And has been speaking of false teachers and those that have smooth talk and flattery and whet their own appetite. He remarks that the church is to remain obedient for all. Then here, he mentions that "The God of Peace will soon crush Satan." Those that teach deceit and falsehood are instruments of the devil.
The God of Peace will crush the strength and power of Satan once and for all.
And the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ is with us always. "Grace bring us into a saving relationship with God. Grace sustains this relationship and grace preserves us forever. We depend entirely on grace at every point on our Christian journey, and without grace we are nothing."
Promise: From TableTalk, December 26, 2014, "When when the foes of God's people seem to flourish, their ultimate loss is assured. This is an incredible encouragement for us to persevere under opposition."
