Sorry, this is a little lengthy but it will take you to your Bible and explain the connection between Michale and Jesus.
Who Is Michael the Archangel?
THE spirit creature called Michael is not mentioned often in the Bible. However, when he is referred to, he is in action. In the book of Daniel, Michael is battling wicked angels; in the letter of Jude, he is disputing with Satan; and in Revelation, he is waging war with the Devil and his demons. By defending Jehovah’s rulership and fighting God’s enemies, Michael lives up to the meaning of his name—“Who Is Like God?” But who is Michael?
At times, individuals are known by more than one name. For example, the patriarch Jacob is also known as Israel, and the apostle Peter, as Simon. (Genesis 49:1, 2; Matthew 10:2) Likewise, the Bible indicates that Michael is another name for Jesus Christ, before and after his life on earth. Let us consider Scriptural reasons for drawing that conclusion.
Archangel. God’s Word refers to Michael “the archangel.” (Jude 9) This term means “chief angel.” Notice that Michael is called the archangel. This suggests that there is only one such angel. In fact, the term “archangel” occurs in the Bible only in the singular, never in the plural. Moreover, Jesus is linked with the office of archangel. Regarding the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ, 1 Thessalonians 4:16 states: “The Lord himself will descend from heaven with a commanding call, with an archangel’s voice.” Thus the voice of Jesus is described as being that of an archangel. This scripture therefore suggests that Jesus himself is the archangel Michael.
Army Leader. The Bible states that “Michael and his angels battled with the dragon . . . and its angels.” (Revelation 12:7) Thus, Michael is the Leader of an army of faithful angels. Revelation also describes Jesus as the Leader of an army of faithful angels. (Revelation 19:14-16) And the apostle Paul specifically mentions “the Lord Jesus” and “his powerful angels.” (2 Thessalonians 1:7; Matthew 16:27; 24:31; 1 Peter 3:22) So the Bible speaks of both Michael and “his angels” and Jesus and “his angels.” (Matthew 13:41) Since God’s Word nowhere indicates that there are two armies of faithful angels in heaven—one headed by Michael and one headed by Jesus—it is logical to conclude that Michael is none other than Jesus Christ in his heavenly role.

Archangel michael's spirit did not enter into the body of Jesus.
John 6:38 For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
Michal is just an angel. they do not have spirits. The are just angels. Where are you getting these things from?

The Spirit that descended upon Jesus was after the Baptism was the Spirit of God, and at the same time when God spoke saying that Jesus was his son. There is nothing to do with Michael. Look at Mark 1:1-11... this is from the translation of NIV.
The beginning of the gospel about Jesus Christ, the Son of God. 2 It is written in Isaiah the prophet: "I will send my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way"-- 3 "a voice of one calling in the desert, 'Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him.'" 4 And so John came, baptizing in the desert region and preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 5 The whole Judean countryside and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him. Confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan River. 6 John wore clothing made of camel's hair, with a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey. 7 And this was his message: "After me will come one more powerful than I, the thongs of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. 8 I baptize you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
9 At that time Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 As Jesus was coming up out of the water, he saw heaven being torn open and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. 11 And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased."

NO,
16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:
17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved SON, in whom I am well pleased.
Matthew 3:16-17

There was the Almighty God and he made another spirit person to be with him in heaven. col.1:15 Rev 3:14
Jesus was the first of his creations by means of him all other things in heaven and in earth was created.
He had many other spirit persons in heaven Rev 12
Says micheral and his angels battled with the dragon and his angels showing two oposing forces. It was called a war in heaven. Micheal is called the arch angel there is only one arch angel and it was said that was Jesus. That is the war name for Jesus. Just as Jacob was also called Israel.
He lived in heaven it says in many scriptures before coming to earth. "No man has ascended but he who descended Jesus Christ>"

No. It was the Holy Ghost. St. Luke 3:22.

The Spirit (Holy Spirit) descended upon Him like a dove. Michael had nothing to do with it.

This is right if you want to believe that it is right, at least it will seem right for you.
He said that he came down from heaven because that is the only possible place to come from. Each of us could say the exact same thing.

The word 'archangel' derives from the Greek arche (ruler or source) and angelos (messenger).
Who is the ruler of the angels?
