“Then cried he upon me, and spake unto me, saying, Behold, these that go toward the north country have quieted my spirit in the north country.”
The angel calls out: Go, patrol the earth. And they patrolled the earth.\u2014establishing that the command is executed immediately and completely, the chariots disperse to accomplish their missions of judgment and divine oversight. The completion of the command emphasizes the certainty of divine purposes: God commands, and what He decrees occurs. The patrolling of the earth by these divine chariots provides closure to the visionary sequence: what began with the survey of horsemen in vision one concludes with the dispatch of cosmic forces to patrol and judge the earth. This final vision establishes God's comprehensive governance of the created world and the certainty that His purposes will be accomplished through whatever forces and circumstances He directs.
