The name Michael signifies "Who is like to God?" and was the war cry of
the good angels in the battle fought in heaven against Satan and his
followers. Holy Scripture describes St. Michael as "one of the chief
princes," and leader of the forces of heaven in their triumph over the
powers of hell. He has been especially honored and invoked as patron
and protector by the Church from the time of the Apostles. Although he is
always called "the Archangel," the Greek Fathers and many others place
him over all the angels - as Prince of the Seraphim. St. Michael is the
patron of paratroopers.
SAINT MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL PRAYER
St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle; be our safeguard against
the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly
pray. And do you, O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God,
cast into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
