    I met archangel Michael in the flesh .. I am also a former marine. I think the great general likes looking after the warriors of god. I love this personal testimony. . it was real. He restored my relationship with my wife and foretold about the coming of our first son. I am truly humbled to have personally known the great Angel of the lord. Satan will meet his end soon.. Prepare and walk as Jesus did

I knew who I was, and My weapons of war are not carnal but for the bring down of strongholds. My grandpa had a Elias spiritual anointing and I had a King anointing so, I went back to what I know growing in my Spiritual Baptist and Christian family.

    My husband, a non Catholic and a Michael witnessed St. Michael come to his defense. Our marriage was at a low point. We were separated at the time. He was living with friends of ours. My husband says he awoke and saw a cloven hoof in a shadow on his bedroom wall. Then he saw St Michael descend into his room, with sword raised. St. Michael through a covering over my husband and my Mike says he was put instantly to sleep. We believe St. Michael is an advocate for protecting our marriage.

    Who could down vote this video. SMH. This was beautiful. I want to tell a story of MY dad's experience. When he was a youth in the 1930's, he ran away from some mean foster parents who took him out of a Catholic orphanage. He was crippled because he had Diptheria has a little kid which left him with a short, frozen arm and a significant limp. He hopped freight trains on his way to Oklahoma. It was difficult with his physical handicaps but he had a formidable determination. One night, he was running as fast as he could but he could tell he was not going to make it this time. In fact he was about to go under the wheels of the train. Suddenly, some big strong arms grabbed him and lifted him up. He looked up and it was a powerfully built, huge black man. The man set him down on his feet on top of the freight car. My dad turned around to thank him, but he wasn't there. Nobody was there. My dad always believed his entire life that it was an angel. Also, it was night, in the dark, loud as trains are. Who could have even noticed my dad attempting to try to catch that train car? Somebody noticed and knew right where he was and saved his life. A supernatural somebody. I hope to meet him in Heaven.

    Yesterday was my 20th wedding anniversary mass. My wife and I were married at St. Michael the Archangel's church in a remote part of east Slovakia. So we flew from Australia to have our wedding vows renewed. We went to ask the priest who turned out to be the exorcist for the area. I prayed to St. Michael during the mass. Afterwards the priest came to me and showed me his relic of St. Michael, they were stones from St. Michael's cave in Italy where he appeared. I asked if I could kiss them. He said "This relic is now yours". I was so choked. I love St. Michael, he has been the guardian of my marriage for 20 years. I am going to buy a thick gold chain and wear these stones around my neck for the rest of my life. St. Michael is my defender and he will be there for me in my last hour. I can't wait to see him. Death will be my chariot to heaven. 💘

    Thank you for sharing the beautiful story! My ex husband is a retired Army soldier I always told him to pray the St. Michael prayer. Even though I knew that he was raised as a Jehovah Witness but I told him that anyway and I prayed for him a whole lot. I still pray for him. I remember looking at his dog tags and see a St.Michael medallion with the prayer on it! He always wore it! And he confessed to me that when he was scared or worried he always prayed the prayer. And that he prayed the St.Michael prayer with the regentamental Chaplain before every mission and he got blessed to by the Chaplain him and the soldiers that we were going a mission with him! I can honestly say that he came close to death many, many times but he made it home safely. Many soldiers didn't but he did and he blames himself all the time because he feels guilty. I tell him I understand his feelings of guilt. But I tell him that he made out all those times and made it home safely by the Grace of God🙏🙌 God is good! Even when we aren't. Thank you God🙏🙌😁

    You hear Fr. Joachim's voice break around 4:12 when he reads what St. Michael said about joining the outfit 'at the last minute.' I too become immediately, deeply impacted by these words. They are laden with meaning. First they tell us that St. Michael was saying to this Marine - 'I'm here for you. I'm here to protect you in your time of need.' But as is often the case, the soul didn't realize this at the time. Secondly, it reinforces that God often gives us what we need only at the moment we need it - 'at the last minute' as it were - to enable us to demonstrate faith and virtue in adversity right up until the point at which He delivers us. So beautiful. Straight to the heart. This is why Fr can't even read the words without being overcome with the love they convey.

    When I was really at a low point and physically and mentally exhausted I had a vivid dream of me sitting with my head in my hands and suddenly feeling a heavy pressure on my head, so strong that I woke frightened but instantly saw a vision of legs either side of me as I was still sitting and these legs were up to my shoulders and as I tried to look up I struggled to see the rest of the body as I was being surrounded by angel's wings, totally engulfed and the feeling of peace and tranquility just instantly dissolved my fear as I knew that heavy presence on my head was St Michael reassuring me with his protection. I've always invoked this prince of heaven and at that dark period in my life he heard my plea. How privileged we are to have this mighty warrior on our side. Ask for his protection morning and night, he hears you!

They have it published in LA Times. I had the newspaper but unfortunately it was stolen from me. They are so tall they look like 10 feet and funny because they were smiling looking at the people who were welcoming the Holy Father. I guess the Holy Father has a retinue of Archangels with him because of HIS EXALTED POSITION. THE HIGHEST IN THE HIERARCHY SECOND ONLY TO GOD.

    My little one was troubled with very bad, scary dreams. I taught him Saint Michael's prayer. I told my little one to call on Saint Michael whenever bad spirits came calling. One night I noticed my little one in distress while sleeping. In the ear I whispered Saint Michael's prayer and saw Immediate ease.
    The next morning I asked,"How was your sleep?" My little one answered, " a boy faught the demons away. Then the boy and I shared a pizza together." 😇 God Bless Saint Michael for helping those I need!!!

I myself and my fire team partner should of been killed when we had a head on collision with an afghan army truck full of propane bottles. They were leaking profusely.

    He was named Michael, after St. Michael.
