Today is the 75th Anniversary of the Allied Victory in Europe in World War 2, VE Day. This anniversary is being remembered, but in a more subdued way because of the lockdown restrictions. Victory in Europe didn’t mean the total end of the warfare, VJ Day, Victory in Japan, didn’t come until later, 15 August 1945.
I’m not comfortable referencing mens’ battles alongside those of the Kingdom of God, but I’m reminded of all that Jesus won for us, His people on the cross. Today may be a good time to reflect and remind ourselves of His sacrifice and victory 2000 years ago and what a victory, the firstborn of many children of God.
“The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created… He is before all things, and in him all things hold together(God holds/keeps everything in creation together). And He is the head of the body, the church; He is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead so that in everything He might have the supremacy(Lance Lambert, from Jerusalem, gave this advice to younger Christians, IN EVERYTHING GIVE CHRIST THE SUPREMACY). … once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behaviour. But now He has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you wholly in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation – if you continue in your faith, established and firm and do not move from the HOPE held out in the gospel”. Col 1:15-23
Christ is our victor and has indeed crushed the head of the enemy. There may be more fighting but the battle has been won and victory is sure. We are fighting FROM HIS VICTORY, NOT trying to win victory for ourselves, Hallelujah.
