Al and I did a little research relating to this experience.

1. There will be angels to assist those on the ridge when the divine glory descends, particularly in prayer.

2. Jesus carried His shed blood to the Father and that blood can cleanse the conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

3. The purple robe of the angel was a clue that this was no mere angel. He cloaked Jesus, who is royalty. All the colors of the rainbow in that large halo give another clue that this angel was more than an angel of prayer.

4. The angel named YOU WHO HEAR PRAYER was sent to the Moravians by a royal decree. Jesus – by coming Himself within the angel – showed that the angel whose nickname is PRAYER – came by a royal decree to this little mount also. The purple draining from the garment before Jesus stepped from the angel was a visual statement of this royal decree. The purple covered the top of the ridge.
