The Woman of Revelation 12 and The Eagle
Who is the woman of Revelation 12? Is she an actual woman? Let’s look closer to see how Daniel’s prophesies parallel with those of John in Revelation.
Revelation 12:7 – An there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels…
We see here that there is a war between good and evil. Michael is an archangel. He is also the angel of war. He is a leader of angels in heaven. Gabriel is another archangel, who is the messanger of God.
The Book of Revelation was written at about 96 AD. This was almost 700 years after the Book of Daniel was written. We will see how these two prophets’ prophesies were parallel.
Daniel 12:1 – “And that time shall Michael stand up the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people.”
Thy people are the chosen, who are Jews. The time of trouble that is spoken of in these passages are referred to as the Great Tribulation. This is a tribulation where the dragon (satan) will deceive many.
This is parallel to Revelation 12 where the Lord talks about a great tribulation. The Lord’s chosen who are saved will be delivered. This also refers to the 144,000 from the 12 Tribes of Isreal. Contrary to Jehovah’s Witnesses followers, but according to the Word of God, they are the Jews who are saved during the Great Tribulation.
So when does this Great Tribulation take place?
… Revelation 12: 8-9 – And prevailed not. Neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the devil and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.
Satan has even deceived one out of three angels in heaven (a third part of the stars? – Rev. 12: 4). Yes, satan has angel followers. Do you think he could do all of his dirty work alone?
Some believe that the Great Tribulation will begin when Satan is cast down. Think about this: the Abomination of Desolation will spark the beginning of the Great Tribulation. This is when the antichrist will become possessed of the devil himself.
With that in mind, I believe that when the Abomination of Desolation (this is when the antichrist will sit in the third temple, proclaiming to be Christ) occures, that is when Michael the archangel has cast the dragon (Satan) upon the earth.
Revelation 12:13 – “And when the dragon saw that he was cast into the Earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
Who is this woman? Who is the man child?
Undoubtly the woman is Isreal and of course Jesus is her man child. Satan (the antichrist) will come against Isreal like never before. He will also come against all followers of Christ.
Revelation 12:14 “And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time and times and half a time, from the face of the serpent.”
America is known for being the eagle. Our national bird is the eagle. She is also the only friend of Isreal. Undoubtly America will be there to aid Isreal during this Great Tribulation.
What is a time and time and half a time? – It is 3 1/2 years.
Another Scripture to back up the Abomination of Desolation is when the Lord addressed His people in the Book of Matthew:
Matthew 24:15 – When ye therefore shall see the Abomination of Desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place. (whoso readeth let him understand). Then let them which be in Judea flee into the mountains.
When looking at the parallel of Scripture from Daniel and the Book of Revelation, the Abomination of Desolation and the casting down of Satan by Michael will occur at about the same time.

The woman of Revelation 12 is now here. God is precise: It is a woman Rev 12 that delivers the true word John1:1, Rev 12:5, Rev 12:13 who restores Acts 3:21 all things to the world before Christ’s return. This woman exposes the lies of Satan who has deceived the whole world Rev 12:9. This woman creates a new thing in the earth by fulfilling God’s promise to Eve Gen 3:15, Jer 31:22, Isa 14:16. Moses and Elijah are together with the word Matt 17:3 they all three are in this one woman. She is like unto Moses Num 12:3. She was raised up Acts 3:22 from the Laodicean church that becomes lukewarm because they refused to hear her Rev 3:14-17. She is bold like Elijah Matt 17:11, Luke 1:17. As Elijah was alone declaring the true God to the people 1 Kings 18:22 so also her witness alone turns the hearts of the fathers to the children Mal 4:5-6 to prepare a people for the Lords return before the great and dreadful day of the Lord Matt 17:3, Luke 9:30. Those who will not hear Acts 3:23 the true word of God she now deliveres to the world free of charge, as a witness, at the heel of time from the wilderness Rev 12:6 will not be allowed inside the walls of God’s coming kingdom from heaven Rev 21. This true testimony of the true value of the blood of the Lamb delivers the truth that not one child of God will be put in a hell fire no matter what their sins. It never entered the heart or mind of God to ever do such a thing Jer 7:31, Jer 19:5. God created evil Isa 45:7 to teach his children the knowledge of good and evil Rom 8:7, Gen 3:22 so that at their resurrection they become a god Matt 22:29-30, Ps 82:6. Prove all things. You cannot rightly judge this unless you read all that has been written by this woman first Pro 18:13. http://thegoodtale.blogspot.com Check out the bruising of Satan and the reason for all of mankind’s sufferings.
