“I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel.” Genesis 3:15

Takeaways:
God accomplishes His plan through people, families, nations, disasters, and even disobedience.
God’s plan can’t be stopped by us, by sin, by Satan or by anything else.
The book of Genesis is not a story about us; it is a story about God, He brings us into His story.
You don’t have to be afraid. You can trust Him.
