There is a rather interesting verse in Revelation 12: 7 which says:
“there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels”.
Now that is rather interesting. War in heaven? Yes, there was a war for supremacy. The dragon, the devil, tried to become the boss. Rev 12: 8 and 9 give the result of the war, saying that the devil and his angels:
” prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him”.
Jesus told the disciples in Lk 10: 18 that He “saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven”. Int his context, He assured them that they had been given “power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.” (Lk 10: 19).
Angels help us in this warfare, fighting on our behalf as we pray. Let us utilize the power of God that is available to us through angelic assistance. Blessings!
