That 1st PROMISE

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Genesis 3:15
 
"This is the first promise to fallen man. 
It contains the whole gospel and....has been in great measure fulfilled. 
The seed of the woman, even our Lord Jesus, was bruised in His heel, and a terrible bruising it was. 
How terrible will be the final bruising of the serpent's head! 
 

This was virtually done when Jesus 
took away sin, 
vanquished death, 
and broke the power of Satan; 
 
---but it awaits a still fuller accomplishment at our Lord's second advent and in the Day of Judgment
---To us the promise stands as a prophecy that we shall be afflicted by the powers of evil in our lower nature, and thus bruised in our heel; but we shall triumph in Christ, who sets His foot on the old serpent's head. 
By faith let us rejoice that we shall still reign in Christ Jesus, the woman's seed."
Charles Spurgeon
