Hello My Friends,

I apologize for the late posting. We have been struggling with keeping our internet working since the storms that hit early last week. I appreciate your patience and support.

The title of today’s episode is, “Angels”

There are all sorts of angels. There are too many kinds to remember all of them. There are some that are Seraphim, like Michael and Gabriel warring angels. There are some angels like Isaiah saw in his vision of the throne. Their entire function is to fly and sing, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of Host: the whole earth is full of his glory.”

Some angels are created to deliver messages like the one that visited Jesus’ Mother Mary and told her that she was going to have a son. Others are governmental angels that God has placed to look over the running of things.

Psalm 91:11-12 For he shall give his angels charge over thee to keep thee in all thy ways.  12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

There are many other kinds of angels. The kind I want to talk about is what we call the guardian angels that he sends to watch over his children. They are responsible for protecting us and only allowing what God wills.

As I was reading Psalm 91 something came to me that I had never thought about before. Since I was a child my parents and grandparents prayed over me for God to allow his angels to encamp around about me and protect me.  I have always known about how God protects us. I cannot tell you how many times I have had close calls that I know he has protected me. 

It says they are given charge, this means-to entrust with a duty or responsibility, task or obligation. In other words, they are entrusted with the duty of watching over us. So far this was nothing I had not heard before, then God gave me a revelation. He loves us so much that he created angels to protect us. Like someone that is assigned to look out for our well-being. This is why a lot of people call them guardian angels.

It makes me wonder; how many times has God’s angels stood in the way of something happening to me. A reckless driver turned off the road I was on before we could collide.  The train held me up in traffic long enough to keep me from that person that was on the wrong side of the road being there to hit me. I decided to not run an errand until a different day, because he was protecting me from coming in contact with someone who was sick.

Often, we have feelings like we may not want to go somewhere we planned to go. I believe that is God’s way of protecting us from something harmful. We have an amazing God. We should not be surprised that he created angels to watch over us, we are His children.  He paid a horrific price for us, why would he not protect us?

Matt 7:7-11 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8) For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.  9) Or what  man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10) Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11) If ye then being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

How much more does God love us? He will give us only the things needed to make us stronger. He gives good gifts to his children and sends angels to watch over us. He loves us so much it is hard to wrap our minds around that love. We have become somewhat desensitized to the message of the cross. We fail to let it really impact us sometimes. Other things get lost in our theology, while we are searching for the deep things of God. It is good to sit and ponder on the things of God. This is how Christian’s meditate. We take a passage of scripture and think about it. We pray for a deeper understanding and God’s revelation.

It is in the quiet times that God will give us a fresh insight into the heart of the scriptures. Like starting to understand how much he really does love us. Not only did He send his son to die for us. Which was the most amazing act of love, but he created angels to protect us and watch over us. I find that to be amazing love and amazing grace.

Until next time

Be Bold, Be Brave and Keep Your God Focus
