Quest for God's Own Heart
The Old Testament
Through the Eyes of Michael the Archangel 

“Then the Lord took Abram outside and said to him, ‘Look up into the sky and count the stars if you can. That’s how many descendants you will have!’ and Abram believed the Lord, and the Lord counted him as righteous because of his faith.”

(Genesis 15:5-6) 

         (Michael the Archangel retelling the story of Abraham Part II) 

Years later, God and I visited Abram who was now ninety-nine-years-old. God called out to him. “Abram, I am El-Shaddai, the God Almighty. My promises are always true.”

Abram fell to the ground and worshipped Him.

“Abram, your name from now on will be Abraham, for you will be the father of a great nation. Many other nations will also come from your descendants.

When we got to his home, I knocked on the door, as I looked over my shoulder, expecting Satan to lunge out of the shadows. Lot opened the door with a perplexed look. “Who are you?”

“I am Michael the Archangel, and this is Gabriel. We have come to save you from God’s wrath. He is going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah tonight because of their wickedness. Quickly get all that you can and come with us now.”…

            …Lot grabbed his wife, “We’re leaving now.”

“I don’t want to go, Lot,” she screamed, as he dragged her out of the house. I followed them, as they weaved their way through the crowds, making their way out of the city.

         When they were a safe distance away, I looked up to Heaven, as Gabriel stood by my side. “The God of Heaven’s Armies," I cried out. “Rain upon Sodom and Gomorrah your wrath and destruction.” From Heaven, fire and burning sulfur tore through the sky, destroying everything in its path; the people, animals, buildings, and all vegetation.
