St Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle...
🧘Mental/Physical Health 🏋🏼♂️
Saint Michael, the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host, by the Divine power of God, cast into hell Satan and all other evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
St. Michael, place your Shield of Truth over the heart of this nation. By the power of God, design circumstances which will reveal the evil in every heart. Make our nation secure once again through sound leadership and justified enforcement of law. Amen.
Lord, may truth and righteousness be victorious.
I really like St. Michael slaying the dragon. Here in England you see the image all over the place like old churches have it carved into the stonework. St. Michael is often thought to be a Christian motif but in fact he is a feature of all major religions. He lends his name to places as well such as St. Michael's Mount, Mont-Saint-Michel, the city of Arkhangelsk, Russia, and numerous others.
I have a feeling there is a deep meaning behind slaying the dragon but wish I knew what it was.
Not sure about American English but in English English we stopped saying thee and thou many years ago. When I was a kid I remember some older people used that style but it has long died out now, except maybe you'd still hear it in rural parts of Yorkshire.
There is a story of the archangel michael fighting a dragon and casting it from heaven in Rev 12
Putin has a flag with a white night slaying a dragon and his white horse stomping on it, when he is making a speech
I know, that is why I bought a flag just like it. I support dragon slayers !
Could be St. George too... he's always shown slaying a dragon.
thanks for the detail/lets me know they're out there; even in midwest. have just started noticing some Archangel Michael statues, etc. interesting & will be definitely looking for more.
