And God never said to any of the angels,” Sin the place of honor at my right hand until I humble your enemies, making them a footstool under your feet.” Therefore, angels are only servants-spirits sent to care for people who will inherit salvation.
– Hebrews1:13-14(NLT)
ON ANGELS
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you believe that God created angels for a reason?
They were made to serve God’s plan for salvation
Like us, we are made to be servants for God’s kingdom
They were created so we can continue to live in freedom.
Angels don’t have the place of honor that God gave his Son
Only Jesus can free us from bondage and let the devil run
Don’t put angels on a pedestal as you would Jesus Christ
Their purpose is to protect and to help us win the fight.

In the 80’s angels were a “craze” in my country of origin. I got into this fad myself. I collected angel statues and sculptures. I even prayed to them and taught my son to do so. There is a prayer for angels which goes like “Angel of God, my guardian dear. To whom his love commits me here. Ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. Amen.”
The bible says we should only pray to God the father, Jesus and to the Holy Spirit. Anything other than them is idolatry.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for angels who protect us.
REFLECTION
Why do you think we are cautioned not to put angels at par with Jesus?

PROTECTED BY ANGELS
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you know that God is faithful to those who love him?
He’s always with you and wants you to repent of your sins
He orders his angels to protect you wherever you go
Let God’s word be planted in your hearts so it can grow.
He has given you authority to trample and crush the enemy
You need to declare in his might name so you can have victory
His angels are encamped around you and protects you constantly
Look forward to all his promises so you can prosper continually.

We live in a war zone. Ephesians 6:12 says: For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. This verse tells us that we are in a daily battle with someone we don’t visually see. How can we win with a war when we don’t see the enemy? This whole chapter written by Paul to the Ephesians is a guide to all believers how to do spiritual combat with the enemy. We are instructed to put on all of God’s armor and reminded in Psalms 91 that God orders his angels to protect you wherever you go.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for your reinforcements to protect me.
REFLECTION
Have you experienced angel presence in your life, especially when you were threatened or in danger?
