GUARDIAN ANGELS

Do you believe in angels? Guardian angels? I do. I've had too many angelic encounters to believe otherwise. I don't mean I've seen any angels with my physical eyes, but I've experienced their watchcare in my life many times.

We're told several places in Scripture that God has given His angels charge over us. Angels are ministering spirits, or messengers, you could say. A messenger is one who is sent. Have you ever sent angels to minister for you? I never fly on an airplane unless I direct the angels to carry the plane safely through the air. I even tell them to sit on the wings, to dance on the wings and to surround the plane with their presence.

I once read an analogy between angels and waitresses in a restaurant. Both are messengers. And just as a waitress cannot bring you your food until you order it, so the angels need to be told what it is you want them to do! I don't mean one should pray to angels. We pray only to God, in Jesus' Name! But we CAN tell and direct angels concerning what we need them to do.

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

We would be shocked and overwhelmed if we could ever look back upon our lives and see the many, many times when angels had stepped into our circumstances, guided, directed, and protected us.

Why not give your guardian angels some direction and guidance? Try it -- it works!
