THE BOOK OF DANIEL
Part
6
Arch-Angel
Michael is the angel that watches over GOD’s people—the Church and Israel. He
is the angelic prince of heavenly battles who came to support Gabriel, when the
principality over Persia resisted him in 21 days.
But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one
days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was
detained there with the king of Persia.
Dan 10:13 NIV
Afterwards,
Arch-Angel Gabriel met with Prophet Daniel and told him:
"Do you know why I have come to you? Soon I will return to
fight against the prince of Persia, and when I go, the prince of Greece will
come; but first I will tell you what is written in the Book of Truth. (No one
supports me against them except Michael, your prince.
Dan 10:20-21NIV
Arch-angel
Michael is the ‘top angelic-officer’ of the Heavenly armies. He defended Darius
the Mede in the time of his reign over Babylon (11:1).
At
the time of “the Great Tribulation,” Arch-angel Michael will stand up for Israel—He
will defend and protect “the Elect.”
"At that time Michael, the great prince who protects your
people, will arise. There will be a time of distress such as has not happened from
the beginning of nations until then. But at that time your people — everyone
whose name is found written in the Book — will be delivered.”
Dan 12:1 NIV
Just
as the saints are given the eternal privilege of unmeritorious victory, Arch-angel
Michael rebukes the devil, in the Name of The LORD and by His Authority (Jude
9).
“The
Elect” that is still on the earth after “the Bride” meets with Jesus Christ in
the air, will be protected in the time of the Great Tribulation—just as Daniel
prophesied.
Awhile,
after Arch-angel Michael defeats the dragon in battle and casts him to earth
[Rev. 12:7]—this takes place.
Now,
take special note of this: the former event had already taken place. It took
place in the year 2012.
