Angelic activity

ANGELIC ACTIVITY

In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a village in Galilee, to a virgin named Mary. She was engaged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of King David. Gabriel appeared to her and said, “Greetings, favored woman! The Lord is with you!”(Luke 1:26-28 NLT)

Are angels real or not?  How do they benefit you?  Do we need the protection of angels in these difficult times?  There are angels around us in these times that we are living, there are angels who are taking care of your body, who are taking care of your family, your loved ones, your children, etc.

Two passages where we see angelical activity:

The angel and Mary.
Angels bring news, they are messengers of God.  This angel told Mary that she was going to become pregnant by the Holy Spirit and that represented a problem, because she and Joseph were not yet married, they were only engaged.  But since Joseph was a good man and he didn’t want to embarrass her, he thought of walking away from her without saying anything; so the angel intervened again.

The angel and Joseph

As he considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. “Joseph, son of David,” the angel said, “do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. (Matthew 1:20 NLT)

One of the phrases the angels used is: “Do not fear”, they said that to Mary and also to Joseph.  And that’s the same message for today.
The spirit of fear wants to steal peace from people in these times, it wants to steal love, gratitude and joy.  Let’s not fear!  There are angels around us!  They were not only for them, they are for all of us, they are at our disposal.

…no evil will conquer you;no plague will come near your home.For he will order his angelsto protect you wherever you go. They will hold you up with their handsso you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone. (Psalms 91:10-12 NLT)

Think about it:

How have you experienced angelic care?
Does it bring you peace to know that the angels of God guard you in all your ways?
Do you need the protection of angels in these difficult times?
