God and Lucifer had a fight in Heaven, not sure on this correct me if I'm wrong.?

Question

If God is all powerful why did Lucifer think he could beat him?

Answer 1

Alcohol.

People always seem to think they can fight better when they're drunk.

Answer 2

This story is from Milton's Paradise Lost', an epic poem that is the source of most of the Lucifer story. Lucifer and Gabriel were God's Arch Angels, his best. Lucifer, whose name actually means 'bringer of light', hence the lighters used by the soldiers in the firs World War being called 'Lucifer's', was God's favourite. But his pride and his insolence went to his head and he dared to sit in the seat of God. When God discovered this he was so enraged he cast Lucifer and his followers out of Heaven. Inthe fall from grace the Lucifer and the Angels lost their beauty, the feathers on the wings turned to scales and they settled in Hell. Lucifer swore vengance on God and all who followed him. Mankind was his challenge, to turn as many as he could away from God. The 'battle' to continue until the Day of reckoning; Judgement Day, when the winner will be decided. Hope this helps>

Answer 3

Because Lucifer is not All Knowing and tried to do what WE ALL DO. Put God in a Box.

Answer 4

Lucifer did not have a fight with God directly, Micheal threw lucifer out of heaven. Who is Micheal, well, there is evidence in the Bible that Michael is Jesus, still busy checking it out

Answer 5

Pride. You can read about it in Isaiah. Lucifer was the bright and morning star. I believe he was the "praise and worship" leader. He is what happens when someone gets out of line with God in their place.

Not unlike the fallen ministers that we see on television today.

Answer 6

Lucifer, who was the king of Babylon, never fought in heaven.

The devil never fought with God in heaven.

Answer 7

The Bible never mentions this, it is in fact first mentioned by Milton.

I don't think Lucifer thought he could beat Him, he said that "I would rather reign in Hell than serve in Heaven."

Answer 8

Sin is the reason, he let his ego and his pride take over. then he thought that he could be just like God!

Answer 9

ever head of egotism - someone full of themselves - he became prideful and thought higher than he ought of himself - so he challenged God and lost.

Answer 10

First the scripture says that Michael battled with the dragon(Satan) but is Michael God......The only holy angel other than Gabriel named in the Bible, and the only one called “archangel.” (Jude 9) The first occurrence of the name is in the tenth chapter of Daniel, where Michael is described as “one of the foremost princes”; he came to the aid of a lesser angel who was opposed by “the prince of the royal realm of Persia.” Michael was called “the prince of [Daniel’s] people,” “the great prince who is standing in behalf of the sons of [Daniel’s] people.

Scriptural evidence indicates that the name Michael applied to God’s Son before he left heaven to become Jesus Christ and also after his return. Michael is the only one said to be “the archangel,” meaning “chief angel,” or “principal angel.” The term occurs in the Bible only in the singular. This seems to imply that there is but one whom God has designated chief, or head, of the angelic host. At 1 Thessalonians 4:16 the voice of the resurrected Lord Jesus Christ is described as being that of an archangel, suggesting that he is, in fact, himself the archangel. This text depicts him as descending from heaven with “a commanding call.” It is only logical, therefore, that the voice expressing this commanding call be described by a word that would not diminish or detract from the great authority that Christ Jesus now has as King of kings and Lord of lords. (Mt 28:18; Re 17:14)

There are also other correspondencies establishing that Michael is actually the Son of God. Daniel, after making the first reference to Michael (Da 10:13), recorded a prophecy reaching down to “the time of the end” (Da 11:40) and then stated: “And during that time Michael will stand up, the great prince who is standing in behalf of the sons of [Daniel’s] people.” (Da 12:1) Michael’s ‘standing up’ was to be associated with “a time of distress such as has not been made to occur since there came to be a nation until that time.” (Da 12:1) In Daniel’s prophecy, ‘standing up’ frequently refers to the action of a king, either taking up his royal power or acting effectively in his capacity as king. (Da 11:2-4, 7, 16b, 20, 21) This supports the conclusion that Michael is Jesus Christ, since Jesus is Jehovah’s appointed King, commissioned to destroy all the nations at Har–Magedon.—Re 11:15; 16:14-16.

The book of Revelation (12:7, 10, 12) specifically mentions Michael in connection with the establishment of God’s Kingdom and links this event with trouble for the earth: “And war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels battled with the dragon, and the dragon and its angels battled. And I heard a loud voice in heaven say: ‘Now have come to pass the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of his Christ, because the accuser of our brothers has been hurled down . . . On this account be glad, you heavens and you who reside in them! Woe for the earth and for the sea.’” Jesus Christ is later depicted as leading the heavenly armies in war against the nations of the earth. (Re 19:11-16) This would mean a period of distress for them, which would logically be included in the “time of distress” that is associated with Michael’s standing up. (Da 12:1) Since the Son of God is to fight the nations, it is only reasonable that he was the one who with his angels earlier battled against the superhuman dragon, Satan the Devil, and his angels.

So in conclusion Michael rid the heavens of Satan and threw him down to the earth.
