Satan fell from Heaven as a flash of lightning! That is a very powerful statement. This happened when the Disciples were sent out on their mission trip by Jesus. This was a part of their Discipleship Training from Jesus in preparation for the planting of the New Testament Church. As we obey the Will of God and the commission of those who are our Spiritual Leadership, the Lord will also give us powerful testimonies for His Glory.
