Story: The Conversation
No Weapon Formed Against Us… Continued
April 22, 2022
As the battle on Earth rages on, Michael (the Archangel) answers a summons to the Throne Room. As he steps into the heavenly realm, he hears the praises filling the entire domain. As he traverses each section of heaven, he hears the sounds of worship blending into one magnificent chorus. Michael has always enjoyed these times.
The sounds of Heaven are rarely heard on Earth. There were times, he would be in some region of the world and hear the praises reminiscent of the sounds he enjoyed in Heaven. The sounds produced by instruments were enjoyable, but it was the worship and praises of the people which filled the Throne Room. As their spirit echoed into the heavenly realm, Michael knew the sounds were coming from the very depth of their souls. The praise coming from the earthly realm into the throne room. The praises God delighted in from his people. It wasn’t just the praise or worship from churches. It came from bedrooms, from believers stretched out on the dining room floors, from anywhere a person could stop and give God total praise.
As he continues towards the throne, he can see in the distance the twenty-four elders bowed before The Lamb. Each having a harp and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. He hesitates, looking into the bowls observing the prayers of those who believed. The voices of the many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders encircles him; and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands, but it was the 12 saying with a loud voice,
“Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and wisdom, and strength and honor and glory and blessing!”
Encircling the Throne is a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues. All standing before the throne and before The Lamb. Clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out in a loud voice,
“Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”
Just as he takes his last step before kneeling, he sees the group elders and hears the elders say,
“And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”
“Michael,”
“Father,”
“Father, it is hard for me to understand man and your love for these creatures. Some battles we are fighting, such as the one on Earth now. We fight because you have instructed us to protect and fight for them. They have your word which has been blood sealed with your love. I can see they are clinging on to that word. We see the churches standing strong for you. Leaders are rising to the platform, encouraging the listeners to hold fast. People are crossing culture lines, racial lines and economic statuses binding together and crying out your name… Yet!”
The Father hands Michael a report, and the content of what he was given overwhelmed him. It outlines the prayers emerging from the prison system and it is astonishing. Even with the struggles of prison life, many are turning to God. He looks over at the golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. Fully aware this is the constant incoming and outgoing of prayers and answers.
Answers are always coming down from the heavenly realm filling the earthly realm. Looking down at the battle he left on earth, the believers are picking up the proper weapons for the warfare before them. There is an understanding that, this is not a flesh and blood battle. People are rejoicing over the answers to their prayers. They are embracing responses which looked like nothing they could have ever imagined. God’s answers for their life. “Not my will God, but thou will be done” has freed God’s hand their situation, for their life. From this vantage point, Michael sees a different perspective from what he was seeing while in the actual battle
The enemy is weakening because the believers are now armed with the appropriate weapons. Strongholds are being broken as the believers use the Sword of the Spirit (the Word of God) as their weapon…
“for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the casting down of strongholds, casting down imaginations, and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;” 2 Corinthians 10:4–5 — American Standard Version
Michael sees Grace leading the Forces in a direction that has thrown the Forces of Darkness and their counter-warriors off course. Grace was God’s unmerited favor, a gift from God. God's favor towards the unworthy. The undeserving are breaking the grip of the enemy. As people are embracing God’s love, realizing they don’t have to strive to earn it. Grace cleared a pathway for Peace, Faith, the Sword of the Spirit (the Word of God) and Praise. It released them in every area where Losses, Finances, Depression, and Loneliness had long-standing strongholds. Michael bows.
“Father,”
“Michael,”
As Michael exits the Heavenly realm, he notices the sounds of heaven and earth are blending as one magnificent sound.
