“How you have fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth, you who once laid low the nations! You said in your heart, “I will ascend to the heavens; I will raise my throne above the stars of God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of Mount Zaphon. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.”

“I will not be denied my throne above the stars!” Lucifer proclaimed to Shamayim.

“Do not do this, Lucifer. You know what will happen.” Michael warned from behind him. Lucifer remained defiant and stood his ground.

Lucifer suddenly ignited into flames and fell from Shamayim like a lightning streak. His scream of pain pierced all of creation and echoed for all to feel and hear.

“Through your widespread trade you were filled with violence, and you sinned. So, I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and I expelled you, guardian cherub, from among the fiery stones. Your heart became proud on account of your beauty, and you corrupted your wisdom because of your splendor. So, I threw you to the earth; I made a spectacle of you before kings.”

Lucifer crashes into Sagun like a meteor, creating a crater around him. He was on his knees and his body and wings continued to smolder. His body appeared to be charred with cracks of cinders coursing throughout. The ground beneath him shook violently and majestic gates of iron and steel rose before him. Once erected, Lucifer witnesses an angel glide down from Sagun’s sky and perch atop the gates. “Welcome to your new home, brother.” Anahel stated caustically. Lucifer gazes at him intensely and states defiantly “You have no power over me, Anahel.”“Perhaps, but once our Father judges you, there’s a nice little lake in here for you to spend eternity in, Lucifer.” Anahel sneered. “NO!” Lucifer growls and uses his wings to raise himself back up to his feet. He then leaps into the air and flies away from Anahel and the gates of hell. “You will be back, brother, I promise.” Anahel says under his own breath.

‘Then war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.”
