How many of you believe in angels?
They are watching over us, all around us.
They are protectors of physical and spiritual dangers.
Angels are commanded to "encamp all around us”.
I shot some photos at an early morning wreck last week and I can tell you the woman driving one of the cars surely had some angels encamped around her. Her vehicle was smashed, twisted and turned upside down. You had to look twice to see that it was actually a car.
Yet, she suffered only a broken leg and was treated and released at the local hospital.
It was miraculous, but reminded me that we do have angels with us.
The angels we are talking about are not the chubby little baby angels that are often depicted. Those angels are not biblical.
This is not fiction stuff, but the truth that is confirmed in the Word of God. Angels are powerful, spiritual agents under God's sovereign will.
God's holy angels are not passive, but active and powerful in nature.
Ask daily for God's angels to be dispatched around you and your family.
We may have even encountered and entertained angels without even knowing it or without being aware of it. That's an eye-opening thought. It makes me want to always treat people with love and respect.
Protection is vital since that roaming lion hides and lies in wait for us and evil spirits that rule this world that seek to destroy His own. However if God is for us, who can be against us!?
And since God's Word is true, then why should we fear what anyone can do to us?
We should take comfort that angels are there for us.
The New Testament in Luke 16:22 mentions that Lazarus was "carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom" after he had died so it may even be that even we may have more than one angel who is assigned to us.
Take comfort in the knowledge that we are secure in Christ's very own hands and in the hands of the Father and that he's dispensed angels for our physical protection and strengthening.
Let us remember Psalm 34:7, “The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.”
We can be thankful that God has his angels watching over us, every move we make and every step we take.
Be blessed.
