Book of Luke - Chapter 20 - Verse 43

20:43
Till I make thine enemies thy footstool.

Meaning

When the Bible says "Till I make thine enemies thy footstool," it is a powerful statement of ultimate victory and triumph. In ancient times, placing one's foot on the neck of a defeated enemy symbolized absolute conquest and domination. In this verse, God is promising to subdue all of our enemies and make them powerless beneath our feet. This imagery conveys the idea that God will defeat all who oppose His people and establish His authority and reign over all creation. It is a reminder that no matter how strong or numerous our adversaries may be, God is ultimately in control and will bring about justice and victory in the end. This verse is a source of hope and encouragement for believers, reminding us that God is our protector and defender, and that He will ultimately defeat all that stand against His righteous purpose.
