Satan in Law

One bright, beautiful Sunday morning, everyone in the tiny Midwest town got up early and went to the local church. Before the services started, the townspeople were sitting in their pews. Suddenly, Satan appeared at the front of the church. Everyone started screaming and running for the entrance, trampling each other in a frantic effort to get away from an evil incarnate.

-
Soon everyone was evacuated from the church, except for one elderly gentleman who sat calmly in his pew, not moving.....seemingly oblivious to the fact that God's ultimate enemy was in his presence. Now this confused and irritated the Devil a bit, so he walked up to the man and said, "Don't you know who I am?"

-
"Yep, sure do," the elderly man said.

-
Satan asked, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

-
This time the man said, "Nope, sure ain't!"

-
Satan, a little more perturbed at this, asked, "Why aren't you afraid of me?"

-
The man calmly replied, "Been married to your sister for 56 years."

A WORLD UNDER CURSE

1. God cursed the serpent (14-15).God cursed the serpent. He punished him by destroying his pride (14); Satan would be at war with mankind, but in the end, he would lose. God planted the hope and assurance of victory in man's heart. The offspring of the woman would someday crush Satan's head. Jesus, the offspring of the woman, did this (Gal 4:4). He was sorely wounded, but he won the victory by his death and resurrection.

2. The woman's punishment (16).God's blessing became a curse. A woman's greatest joy became her greatest pain; furthermore, she became a captive to her own desire for her husband, and instead of being a willing and joyful helper and friend to her husband, she became his slave. Only Jesus can set women free from the curse of slavery to desire for men, and enable her to serve God in freedom and joy.Prayer: Father, I was born under the curse of sin, but I thank you for Jesus, who sets me free and gives me hope and makes me fruitful.
