Angels Are With Us

All the angels are spirits who serve God and are sent to help those who will receive salvation. Hebrews 1:14 

But you are as wise as an angel of God, and you understand everything that happens among us! 2 Samuel 14:20

Praise the LORD, you angels, you mighty ones who carry out his plans,

 listening for each of his commands. Psalm 103:20

No, you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to countless thousands of angels in a joyful gathering. Hebrews 12:22

And now this Good News has been announced to you by those who preached in the power of the Holy Spirit sent from heaven. It is all so wonderful that even the angels are eagerly watching these things happen. 1 Peter 1:12

My God sent his angel to shut the lions’ mouths so that they would not hurt me, for I have been found innocent in his sight. Daniel 6:22

Finally, the poor man died and was carried by the angels to sit beside Abraham at the heavenly banquet. Luke 16:22

We all know the angel told Mary she would carry God’s son. This was an intervention by an angel into our world. Have we thought about all the other times angels have been in our world? Henry Morris says in Days of Praise that even though they are invisible to us, angels are real, and are more involved in our personal lives than we realize. He can even shut the lions’ mouths.

There are thousands of angels who are wise, understand what happens to us, are watching what happens on earth, carry out God’s plans, protect us at times, and eventually will carry us to our heavenly home. Think about this. I believe the angels are guiding me in my latest project which keeps taking different forms as I pray for God’s leadership. He protected me from accidents as I drove those dangerous 15 passenger vans around the country with Wesleyan tennis.

Prayer: Thank you dear Lord, for the protection you give us, the guidance you can give us when we ask and the angels you send to us. Amen.
