God, man and Satan

After man sinned in the Garden, God rebuked all parties involved and said, "And I (God) will put enmity between you [Satan] and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he shall bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise him on the heel" (Genesis 3:15).

God promised to bruise Satan's head- not directly, but through the seed of the woman. The seed of Satan would in turn bruise mankind's heel. This established the grounds for spiritual warfare. Satan is working through mankind to do his business on the planet.
And God is working through mankind to defeat the enemy. .

This is what has been happening throughout history.
