Unfortunately, certain patriots are misunderstanding a prayer by General Michael Flynn based on a false and misleading Antifa Remix of the prayer below.

Doing my own research to make this video, I have concluded that there is overwhelming evidence that this is a true and godly Christian prayer. A modern interpretation, inspired by a traditional Christian and early church prayer.

Spread the word (logos); "We Are Your Instrument" prayer by General Michael Flynn is a modern interpretation of a traditional Catholic prayer(s) to Saint Michael Archangel, patron saint of soldiers and cops.

The prayer is in fact, a de-Catholicized version of the Catholic Prayer of Archangel Michael, his namesake, and the patron Saint of Soldiers.

I overlayed the prayer I found on Rumble with Catholic, the early church and Saint Michael imagery.

Saint Michael Archangel Official Catholic Prayer
"Saint Michael Archangel, defend us in battle,
be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil;
may God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God,
cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl through the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen."

There is confusion about some of the terminology used in the prayer by General Michael Flynn, below is my interpretation based on standard, historical, canonical Catholic, early church and common interpretation of those terms. It is my belief, from reviewing this prayer that the General has modified the prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel for a modern American and patriotic audience. You decide.

The Seven Fold Rays are the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit, the legions, are the heavenly hosts of the legions (military formations of angels). In Matthew Jesus says he can call on the legion of angels to defend himself when he is betrayed.

Matthew 26:53
The Betrayal of Jesus
…52“Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him. “For all who draw the sword will die by the sword. 53 Are you not aware that I can call on My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels? 54But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen this way?”…

Seven Fold Rays are the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit often depicted as rays of bright or blinding light, flames or engulfing fire. Sevenfold is early English equivalent of Seven Times or Times Seven.
In Summa Theologiae I.II, q. 68, a1, Saint Thomas Aquinas says that four of these gifts (wisdom, understanding, knowledge, and counsel) direct the intellect, while the other three gifts (fortitude, piety, and fear of the Lord) direct the will toward God.

The Holy Spirit has been represented in Christian art both in the Eastern and Western Churches using a variety of depictions.[99][100][101] The depictions have ranged from nearly identical figures that represent the three persons of the Holy Trinity, to a dove, to a flame.

The Holy Spirit is often depicted as a dove, based on the account of the Holy Spirit descending on Jesus like a dove when he was baptized in the Jordan.[102] In many paintings of the Annunciation, the Holy Spirit is shown in the form of a dove, coming down towards Mary on beams of light, as the Archangel Gabriel announces Jesus Christ's coming to Mary. A dove may also be seen at the ear of Saint Gregory the Great – as recorded by his secretary – or other church father authors, dictating their works to them. The dove also parallels the one that brought the olive branch to Noah after the deluge, as a symbol of peace.[102]

The book of Acts describes the Holy Spirit descending on the apostles at Pentecost in the form of a wind and tongues of fire resting over the apostles' heads. Based on the imagery in that account, the Holy Spirit is sometimes symbolized by a flame of fire

Fire – symbolizes the transforming energy of the Holy Spirit's actions. In the form of tongues "as of fire", the Holy Spirit rested on the disciples on the morning of Pentecost.

The seven gifts of the Holy Spirit are an enumeration of seven spiritual gifts originating from patristic authors,[1] later elaborated by five intellectual virtues[2] and four other groups of ethical characteristics.[3] They are: wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge,piety, and fear of the Lord.[4]

Saint Archangel Michael
Michael (Hebrew: [mixaˈʔel]; Hebrew: מִיכָאֵל‎, romanized: Mīḳāʾēl, lit. 'Who is like El?'; Greek: Μιχαήλ, romanized: Mikhaḗl; Latin: Michahel; Coptic: ⲙⲓⲭⲁⲏⲗ; Arabic: ميخائيل ، مِيكَالَ ، ميكائيل‎, romanized: Mīkā'īl, Mekaal, Mekal, Mechaal, or Mīkhā'īl)[6] is an archangel in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

In Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Anglican, and Lutheran systems of faith, he is called Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Michael. In the Oriental Orthodox faith he is called Saint Michael the Taxiarch.[7][8] In many Protestant denominations, he is referred to as Archangel Michael.

Michael is mentioned three times in the Book of Daniel. The idea that Michael was the advocate of the Jews became so prevalent that, in spite of the rabbinical prohibition against appealing to angels as intermediaries between God and his people, Michael came to occupy a certain place in the Jewish liturgy.

In the New Testament Book of Revelation, Michael leads his angels against the dragon ("the Devil and Satan") and his angels during the war in heaven[9] where he defeats the dragon. In the Epistle of Jude, Michael is specifically referred to as "the archangel Michael". Sanctuaries to Michael were built by Christians in the 4th century, when he was first seen as a healing angel. Over time his role became one of a protector and the leader of the heavenly host against the forces of evil.

Disclaimer: I made this video independently and under no payment, contract or arrangement, and with no inside or special knowledge, I do not know Gen Flynn, and have had no contact with his networks during the making of this video.

I do, however, now ask, that patriots review this video post, decide for themselves, and spread the word (logos).

God Bless America.
