ANGELS ON THE JOB

Psalm 91:11 NLT For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go.

There are angels all around us whether we’re aware of them or not and I’ve heard three amazing testimonies from friends in just this past week of God delivering and rescuing them from different situations. One of those would have been a three vehicle pile up caused by brake failure, but they were miraculously delivered by their angels and saved from a terrible collision.

Yesterday I was in our daughter’s car and we were going to post a card on the way home. As I jumped out to post it I hadn’t realised my foot had caught in the strap of my bag which was in the car footwell. As I went to put one foot in front of the other I went sprawling all over the pavement which was a bit of a shock to the system!

But praise God I was wearing a padded coat which cushioned me and no bones were broken, just some nasty bruises and sprains but I know there must have been angels on the job or it could have been so much worse. It might have been an unhappy Christmas in plaster and I’m so thankful it wasn’t!😊

We pray, don’t we, for protection as we declare Psalm 91 and it’s promises over our lives but don’t ever let’s forget to thank God, not just for the times we know He’s rescued us, but also for the times when we haven’t even realised He’s done it.

Our God is a delivering God, like the day I was just about to be scammed by a fake bank call to give them access to my bank account when I felt a nudge of the Holy Spirit that it was all wrong and shut it down just in time. 

Hebrews 1:14 Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?

You could probably testify to similar stories in your lives, so let’s give a big thank you to our God for His protection and for His angels who are on the job on our behalf around the clock. Thank You Lord. Amen.
