Bible Verse of The Day – 8-14-23

Genesis 3:15 (NKJV) 15 And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel.”

As God spoke to the serpent (satan) after he had deceived Eve, He clearly laid out his future and the defeat he would ultimately suffer at the hands of the coming Redeemer (Christ).

The enemy had no idea what God was referring to when He said, “He shall bruise your head”.

What God meant was that the coming Redeemer would deal him a fatal blow, removing the power of death from him by rising from the dead Himself, defeating death with a blow of finality.

Christ would crush his head under His feet with this single, miraculous act.

Death itself would die.

This all happened through a chain of events that is utterly impossible for human minds to completely comprehend.

The precision with which God moved and worked to tie everything together neatly over the centuries is truly mind boggling.

Specific people had to be born and precisely placed in time and in geographical locales.

Events would have to play out that would cause certain shifts in populations.

Stars would have to be put in place to shine and signal the birth of the Redeemer.

And there was so much more that happened that we cannot begin to fathom with our finite minds.

But it happened. And because God was faithful in His promise to redeem humanity, Christ came, lived, died, and rose again.

And it is solely because of this that we are offered redemption and the forgiveness of our sins through the sacrifice that Christ made for you and me.

Let us not forget or make light of the depth of this incredible miracle, and the intricate, powerful way by which God carried it out.
