About This Sacred Artwork

Saint Michael the Archangel appears in solemn victory, clothed in burnished armor beneath a deep blue mantle lined with red. His golden wings fill the celestial scene, while a radiant halo and descending light frame his calm, resolute face. With a luminous sword held before him and the dragon crushed beneath his feet, the image turns the drama of spiritual battle toward quiet triumph. The star-filled blue and gold setting, with its ordered arches and radiant geometry, gives the scene a sacred grandeur. It invites contemplation of the Archangel’s faithful obedience to God and the hope that divine strength is never overcome by darkness.

September 29

Sacred Tradition

History & Devotion

Devotion to Saint Michael the Archangel is rooted in Scripture and the Church’s long tradition of prayer for protection against evil. In the Book of Daniel, Michael appears as a heavenly defender of God’s people; in the Letter of Jude, he is named as an archangel; and in Revelation, he leads the angels in battle against the dragon. Catholic devotion often turns to Saint Michael as a powerful intercessor in spiritual conflict, not as a rival to Christ, but as a servant of God’s victory. His feast is celebrated with Saints Gabriel and Raphael on September 29, honoring the holy archangels who serve before the Lord.

Prayer to Saint Michael the Archangel

Saint Michael the 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, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
