What happens in heaven at the midpoint of the tribulation according to Revelation 12?

At the midpoint of the tribulation, a great war breaks out in heaven. Satan and his angels fight against Michael and the other angels, but Satan is defeated and cast out. A loud voice then declares salvation, strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the accuser of the brethren is cast down.

Les explains that Revelation 12 places this event at the midpoint of the tribulation, the final seven years. There will be a great war in heaven: Satan and his angels fight against Michael and the other angels. Finally, Satan and his angels are defeated and cast out. Then verse 10 gives the loud voice in heaven: “And now has come salvation and strength and the kingdom of our God.” Only three and a half years remain until Christ returns to set up His kingdom, the kingdom of our God and the power of His Christ. The accuser of the brethren is cast down, who accused them before God day and night.
