How many times do we stop and take time to appreciate the world around and above us? God covered the heavens with His majesty; all of creation speaks to us about His power.

Amos is often called a prophet of doom. When you begin to read his prophecy, it doesn’t take long to realize that nickname fits. On the surface, his prophecy doesn’t sound like a happy formula for the good life. However, every condemnation he gives serves as an invitation, a cry for us to “seek God and live” (Amos 5:4). This kind of living will bring us peace and true prosperity.

In Genesis 3:15 GW, God directly tells Satan, “I will make you and the woman hostile toward each other. I will make your descendants and her descendant hostile toward each other. He will crush your head, and you will bruise his heel.” This prophetic verse holds God’s powerful plan to restore our severed relationship with Him: Jesus, who defeated the enemy for good by dying on the cross and being raised from death. Because of His sacrifice, we have the power to crush the head of Satan in our own lives. Join me in this seven-day plan as we take an in-depth look at what it means to walk with Jesus in victory, even when our heels are bruised.
