Satan's Head to Crush
As I drove to the church early this morning to sit in the chapel and pray for an hour as part of the Prayer Vigil. I began to think about the glory of God and the fullness of what His glory might mean. I searched for the glory in the cross as I sat in the front of the Holy Sacrament and found Charles Spurgeon September 13, 1885 sermon on Galatians 6: 14. Eleven pages of gripping exposition of glory responding to what Paul writes “14 May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which[a] the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.”
If you were to define glory, what would you say?
There are some fanciful definitions, but throughout this week as I have thought about this word, stripping it down to the basics, I think I would say that Glory is the complete presence and purity of God where the trappings of the world, the flesh, and that devil have zero influence or impact.
Where do you find Glory?
This is what we carry to our Easter Celebration and have to share with the world around us if we have first placed all that is in our lives upon the cross that we would receive His glory that He would crush the head of Satan and the deceptive lies he has tried to destroy us with.
Satan might think he has won, but the only way he can celebrate is if you hold on to your glory instead of casting it down and foot of the cross. Amen.
