What if your biggest battle was already won?
What if the thing you're afraid of, fighting against, or feeling overwhelmed by—has already been disarmed, defeated, and publicly shamed?

At Harvest Sharon Fellowship Church, Pastor Jenson George delivered a Spirit-filled message that shook the foundations of fear and doubt. Preaching from Colossians 2:15, he declared a powerful truth: Jesus has already won the battle. The enemy is not just wounded—he’s been disarmed and disgraced. The cross is not a sign of struggle; it’s the ultimate banner of victory.

1. The Enemy is Powerless

The message opened by anchoring in truth: God has disarmed the enemy. While the devil may act like he has power, it’s only smoke and mirrors. Jesus has already stripped him of authority.

Through vivid imagery, the scene was painted of Christ stepping into the enemy’s territory after the crucifixion—demanding the keys of death and hell, setting captives free, and announcing: "You’ve got no hold anymore."

This was echoed with a reminder from the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego in the fiery furnace. “The fire couldn’t touch them,” it was declared, “because Jesus stepped in as the fourth man.” The same Christ who neutralized the flames then, still covers His children today. The enemy’s threats are loud but empty.

2. Shame Has Been Erased

Why did Jesus endure public mockery, beatings, and a humiliating death on the cross? It was so that we would never have to carry shame again.

Christ became a public spectacle—stripped, scorned, and shamed—not because He had to, but because He chose to take our place. In doing so, He stripped the enemy not just of power, but of leverage. No more shame. No more disgrace. No more “you’re not good enough” ringing in our ears.

The story of the prodigal son was highlighted. When the son returned in filth and regret, the father didn’t shame him—he robed him. In the same way, Jesus covers our shame with grace.

3. Triumph is Our Testimony

Then came the call to action: “You’re not walking into battle—you’re walking from victory.” Like a Roman general leading a parade with conquered enemies in chains, Jesus walks in triumph—and we are invited to follow Him.

A compelling modern example was drawn from the show Undercover Boss. Just like a CEO who disguises himself to work alongside regular employees and later reveals his true identity—Jesus came to earth in humility, took on our pain, and then revealed His divine power by rising from the grave. And just like the CEO who fires unjust managers, Christ says to the enemy: “You have no authority over My children.”

This is not just poetic. It’s personal. The enemy may try to lie, discourage, and delay—but he has no actual power over those walking in the shadow of the cross.

4. Don't Be Fooled by Hollow Teachings

There was also a strong warning against a common temptation: when immediate answers to prayer don’t come, it’s easy to start chasing other solutions. That’s exactly what happened in the church of Colossae. Believers began adding rituals and harsh self-discipline in hopes of pleasing God more or gaining faster results.

But that’s not how grace works.

The truth is, spiritual discipline matters—fasting, prayer, and holy living are important. But they are responses to grace, not replacements for it. Victory comes not through human effort or philosophy, but by being deeply rooted in Christ.

The victory has already been won.
The enemy has been disarmed.
Shame has been covered.
You are not in a losing battle—you are walking in the triumph of the cross.

Every fiery dart, every shame-filled whisper, every accusation the enemy tries to bring—has already been defeated at Calvary.

"Enemy, is that the best you’ve got?"
That’s the boldness every believer is invited to carry—not because of who we are, but because of what Jesus has done.

In every unanswered prayer, in every delay, in every hidden season—stay in the shadow of the cross. Keep proclaiming Christ’s victory. Let your life shout what the enemy hates to hear: It is finished. Jesus has already won.
