And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen. Romans 16:20 Tor Bowling, 27, an engineer, quit his job to see the world; but earlier this year in Thailand he got more than he bargained for. While hiking in the Phu Luang Wildlife Sanctuary, he encountered an elephant charging at him like a freight train. Bowling instinctively stepped forward and held up his hand in a halting motion. The elephant stopped, turned, and fled in the opposite direction. At times, Satan charges us like a stampeding elephant or a roaring lion. He can be intimidating. He may even appear to be winning. He reduced Job to the ash heap, sifted Peter like wheat, caused Christ to die for our sins, and hindered Paul from visiting the Thessalonians. According to the book of Revelation, he will dominate the entire world during the Tribulation. But when we hold up the cross, Satan’s power is broken. His defeat is certain, and the God of peace will crush him under our feet shortly. Until then, we have all we need for victory—the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Christ is the Overcomer! Satan is already defeated! ... We should stand on the ground of the cross, asking for victory as well as for the destruction of the works of the devil. Watchman Nee
