Children today love the comic book heroes. They love seeing a hero, a villain and a story of redemption. In fact, the movie industry has contributed billions to box office sales!
Today, we have such a story. The villain is Satan himself, the hero is Jesus Christ and we are the people in need of redemption. We need to be rescued from the grips of Satan and Jesus is the one and Only one who can rescue us! Satan is not going to let go easily and Jesus Himself knows this. Satan wants to steal God’s Grace, mercy and gifts from us, he wants to kill our bodies and destroy our souls! But Jesus says I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Who do we know that needs to be rescued from the grips of the enemy? Tell them about your real-life super hero, the One who gives life and gives it to the full, Jesus Christ! Without Him, we are left in the hands of the worst villain imaginable, Satan himself. Today and together, let us spread the good news. He is not a comic book hero, but our forever helper, Savior,redeemer! This is our story and our life and joy AND He can be theirs!
