When did Christ defeat Satan? Well, it was predicted immediately after the fall in the third chapter of the Bible, when it says Christ will “bruise [Him] on the head” (Gen. 3:15). 1 John 3:8, “The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil” (cf. Jn. 12:31). We see this victory ultimately happen through His Passion when our Savior defeated the devil and dealt Him a mortal wound. Hebrews 2:14, “That through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil.” Colossians 2:15, “When He had disarmed the rulers and authorities, He made a public display of them, having triumphed over them through Him.” And then He, 1 Peter 3:22, ascended to “the right hand of God, having gone into heaven, after angels and authorities and powers had been subjected to Him.” The war is over. The mission is completed. Satan is defeated. And while he still, 1 Peter 5:8, “Prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour,” his ultimate defeat is guaranteed. Romans 16:20, “The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.” Revelation 20:10, “And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.”

42:1 (Al músico principal. Masquil de los hijos de Coré) Como ansía el venado las corrientes de las aguas, así te ansía a ti, oh Dios, el alma mía.

42:2 Mi alma tiene sed de Dios, del Dios vivo. ¿Cuándo iré para presentarme delante de Dios?

42:3 Mis lágrimas han sido mi alimento día y noche, mientras me dicen todos los días: “¿Dónde está tu Dios?”

42:4 Recuerdo estas cosas y derramo mi alma dentro de mí: cuando pasaba con la muchedumbre, guiándolos hasta la casa de Dios, con voz de alegría y de acción de gracias de la multitud en fiesta.

42:5 ¿Por qué te abates, oh alma mía, y te turbas dentro de mí? Espera a Dios, porque aún le he de alabar. ¡Él es la salvación de mi ser,

42:6 y mi Dios! Mi alma está abatida dentro de mí. Por esto me acordaré de ti en la tierra del Jordán y del Hermón, en el monte de Mizar.

42:7 Un abismo llama a otro por la voz de tus cascadas; todas tus ondas y tus olas han pasado sobre mí.

42:8 De día, mandará Jehovah su misericordia; y de noche, su canción estará conmigo, la oración al Dios de mi vida.

42:9 Diré a Dios: “Roca mía, ¿por qué te has olvidado de mí? ¿Por qué he de andar enlutado por la opresión del enemigo?”

42:10 Mientras mis huesos se quebrantan, mis enemigos me afrentan diciéndome cada día: “¿Dónde está tu Dios?”

42:11 ¿Por qué te abates, oh alma mía, y por qué te turbas dentro de mí? Espera a Dios, porque aún le he de alabar. ¡Él es la salvación de mi ser, y mi Dios!
