Isaiah 31:4-5 For thus hath the LORD spoken unto me, "Like as the lion and the young lion roaring on his prey, when a multitude of shepherds is called forth against him, he will not be afraid of their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them: so shall the LORD of hosts come down to fight for mount Zion, and for the hill thereof. As birds flying, so will the LORD of hosts defend Jerusalem; defending also He will deliver it; and passing over He will preserve it."
Those are two fascinating verses. The Lord spoke to Isaiah telling him (and us) that the lion stalking children of God, wanting to spiritually rip them to pieces.... will not fear the voices of His shepherds...we are His shepherds that He has called forth against him.
We, as His shepherds, have been given power over serpents and scorpions but there is one we are given special instructions about....
Even Michael is an example on "this kind."
So we are told before the event that this will happen. Satan will not fear us but we have....the Lord! The Lord Himself will come down to fight. Spiritually we, His children, are His Jerusalem. If we are the man child, the very elect then we are also His mount Zion. How does He do this? How does He fight for us.....as birds flying. :huh:
What does that mean?

Even Michael is an example on "this kind."
Jude 1:9 Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
