He ascended into the throne of God. He is ruling from heaven right now. This is where she has a place prepared by God in which she is to be nourished for 1,260 days. Now war arose in heaven. Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon and the dragon and his angels fought back, but he was defeated. And there was no longer any place for them in heaven.
