I came ,I saw ,I conquered ( Romans 8 v 37 - 39 )

 It was said that Julius Caesar utter the following words,'I came,I saw ,I conquered',he was a great general , who won many battles.I thought on his words, and thought of someone so much greater than him Jesus ,  but unlike Caesar He did not come with an army,no, He came himself. Where did He come from?,from heaven,and He came to fight a battle, to destroy the works of the devil 1 John 3 v 8,and to destroy the power of death,and  the power of sin.That which Caesar could not destroy.As we see the history of humanity those three  things are every evident.Look out the at  the world,what do you see?, take the blinkers off,look at reality,oh yes we cannot see the devil, but there is plenty of evidence that he exists,sin and death are only to real,and we are affected by them,we are born without hope and without God Ephesians 2 v 12.  But Christ came to change all that, and He did  it in a strange way ,by dying on a cross, there sin was dealt with,and there death was dealt with,as was manifested by His resurrection .It means that the devils power can be broken in our lives,sin can be forgiven,and death will not have the final say,death will eventually die,but we who have trusted Jesus shall live.
