Good morning! How are we faithing? The fall of Satan from heaven is an interesting study. I can't even begin to present all that it entails in this forum so I will present a vision or a dream I had years ago. Satan was before God accusing believers of all the sins we were guilty of and at the same time was being very prideful of his own greatness. As he continued railing about himself and believers his form started to change. He was transforming if you will from an exalted being into a reptile like four footed creature that took on pride, self praise and started cussing everything God created, (best I can describe). Then he fell from the presence of God to earth with all his angels that forsook God and followed him. I can still see this event in my minds eye and to this day I think I understand that as great as Lucifer was created, he isn't God. His pride in his beauty and his music, designed to praise God, is now influencing Gods creation of man. I don't know why this vision or dream of the fall of satan ever came my way but it revealed scripture to me in a way that never before had. Look here;
Rev 12:7-17 And there was war in Heaven. Michael and his angels warring against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels warred, but did not prevail. Nor was place found for them in Heaven any more. And the great dragon was cast out, the old serpent called Devil, and Satan, who deceives the whole world. He was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. And I heard a great voice saying in Heaven, Now has come the salvation and power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers is cast down, who accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony. And they did not love their soul until death. Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and those tabernacling in them. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and in the sea! For the Devil came down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a little time. And when the dragon saw that he was cast to the earth, he persecuted the woman who bore the man child . And two wings of a great eagle were given to the woman, so that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the serpent's face. And the serpent cast out of his mouth water like a flood after the woman, so that he might cause her to be carried away by the river. And the earth helped the woman. And the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth. And the dragon was enraged over the woman, and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Heavenly Father, Thank you for salvation and your Word that explains you. Lord we ponder so many things in scripture and seek truth from it. We thank you that we are literate enough to ask questions about you. Your praises just are not enough because we adore you so much words fail us. Lord, keep us from satan and his minion. Help us see their ploys. Grant us wisdom and courage to stand firm on your Word. In Jesus name, amen
