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

“‘Don’t be afraid!’ Elisha told him. ‘For there are more on our side than on theirs!’ Then Elisha prayed, ‘O Lord, open his eyes and let him see!’ The Lord opened the young man’s eyes, and when he looked up, he saw that the hillside around Elisha was filled with horses and chariots of fire.”

(2 Kings 6:16-17) 

(Michael the Archangel retelling the story of Elisha) 

Elisha’s servant fell to his knees when he saw my mighty army of angels riding the chariots and horses of fire from Heaven. The flames from the chariots and horses devoured the morning sky, as they seared the mountain tops surrounding Elisha’s camp. Molten lava poured out of the eyes of the horses, and with every breath, smoke erupted from their nostrils, enveloping the riders. I hovered above them all, riding in God’s chariot. In my right hand, I held high the spear of the Almighty God, ready to strike the Arameans.

Elisha’s servant wept. “The horsemen and chariots of Heaven! Please help us, my God.”

Elisha got on his knees. “Do not fear my friend, for our God is always on the side of His servants. Never lose faith, for He is more powerful than anything we can ever face. Stand with me and watch God’s mighty victory, for He will hand over the Arameans to us today.”

Elisha shouted with a booming voice, “O Lord, the God of Israel, prove to the world that You’re the True and Living God by blinding the Arameans. Bring victory to Your people today.”

         I thrust God’s spear toward the enemies’ camp as a blazing light pierced through the morning sky, searing the eyes of the Arameans. They shrieked with sounds of terror, as they stumbled on the ground, grasping for anything they could hold on to. Their horses, startled by the blazing light, thundered through the valley, leaving them helpless. “Hadad, our mighty god of war, please help us,” they cried, still crawling on the ground.
