Micaiah continued. “Therefore hear the word of God: I saw the LORD sitting on his throne with all the host of heaven standing on his right and on his left.” (2 Chronicles 18:18)
This host of heaven consists of many angels. In Daniel 7:10 we are told, thousands upon thousands attend the Ancient of Days. In Revelation 5:11 more details are given as follows: Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels, numbering thousands upon thousands, and ten thousand times ten thousand.
Using simple arithmetic we can determine that ten thousand times ten thousand equals one hundred million.
So the situation in heaven is barely comprehensible for most of us humans. It is difficult for us to understand the physics that govern heaven or visualize over 100 million angels attending God. Perhaps it is possible for the human mind to visualize 100,000 individuals (the number of spectators in a large sports stadium) but a multitude 1000 times larger is totally outside our daily experience.
As with most of the other descriptions of the situation in heaven, we must wait to see in person and then we can expect we will comprehend. For now we must be content with just knowing it will be indeed grand!
