15 And I will cause hostility between you and the woman,

In one of the darkest and gloomy moments in human history God is present, involved and offering hope. This is the first prophecy in the Bible about Jesus and how HE will defeat Satan!!
You and I will go through storms in life. It will rain on us no matter how much we follow and love God. However, in the midst of the storm God is present, is involved and He always offers hope. This is what Jesus said in the Gospel of John chapter 13
John 16:33— 33 I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
