Notice the specific references to the defeat of the devil:
-He was defeated in his attempt to devour the Christ-child (12:4-5).
-He was defeated in his war with the angels (12:8).
-He was defeated in his attempts to destroy the woman (12:16).
Read through Revelation 12 and notice all the results of the Cross:
-Satan and his army are defeated.
-Satan is cast out of Heaven.
-Christ’s kingdom has come.
-Satan can no longer accuse Christians before God (Romans 8:33).
-Christians share in Christ’s victory.
-Satan knows his time is short.
-The church is protected by God from Satan’s ultimate aim.
Preach the gospel to yourself today. Christ has defeated Satan and secured your eternal protection.

Thank you for sharing this with us who couldn't be in your Revelation Bible Study last night. I do wish that I am in there with the adult.
But I am with the kids (including your lovely daughter Karis and Noah) during that time. They are very special, and they do need to be in "Awanna" (spelling). They are learning the scriptures and mission too.
In Christ Alone,
