One Hour For Eternity

Flying High amid God's creation, There was one beautiful in Heaven. A creation with wisdom, power, An impeccable angel for all to admire. Here we observe a born king among God's holy family. Lucifer, the radiant Prince, serving God as the angels, Having been endowed with a voice of splendor, Given a tongue to please the ear of God, Possessing a face without impurity, a bold body as black marble, One day, becoming conscious of his qualities, took appraisal of his own identity. Rallying angels close to him, Lucifer exhibited his power, his voice, and acumen. Lucifer gained an audience in Heaven, His volcanic power left lesser angels in awe, His voice shook the air, a concert of pride stirred the chest of all who heard, As evident by the senses, he appeared superior to God, His pride could be measured and known by every sense given by God. Lucifer gained a following, as angels enlisting their faith in him to seize Heaven. Of all angels, loyalty and faith pooled within Michael and Gabriel in that hour, For the one, true God, they commanded His heavenly brigades against Lucifer. War in Heaven, How powerful pride is that it gave birth to such an incident. Angels raced about as bees out of a stirred hive, Lucifer and Gabriel, brothers, were engaged in a duel, As mighty as he was in battle, Gabriel could not withstand Lucifer’s power. Subdued, Gabriel watched as Lucifer stood over him to take his life. As lightning would a tree, Michael seized Lucifer and presented him Before God. Out of love, mercy, and righteousness, God repossessed the talents of Lucifer. He took his glowing presence, his power and authority, as well as his name. Satan was cast out of Heaven with his following, into the Earth. A great creation thought blameless, rebelled out of pride, Rebelled to make us imperfect as he is, in the same hour God decided to love mankind.
