Faithful Messengers

They have been watching and observing us and been here since the beginning of time. A few men have had encounters with them. We have always had a fascination with angels.

Consider these brilliant, powerful creatures who fly and fill the night sky announcing His coming to the shepherds. At His darkest hour they appear to strengthen their Lord and on His glorious morning they move the heavy stone, terrifying the soldiers guarding the tomb.

As we ponder their existence, remember their purpose. They quietly, minister to God’s people and serve their Lord who created them. It’s the fallen ones who make a great commotion. Be careful of these who disguise themselves wanting our destruction. They lie and deceive men, supporting the atheist yet desiring our worship. The angels of God know better. (Revelation 22:8-9)

We’re warned not to listen to an angel from heaven bringing us a different message. So what is the truth we are to believe? That Jesus was made lower than the angels for a little while. Now crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death, so by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.

What about you friend? What voices are you listening to? Here on the earth, the evil spirits fight to get your attention. In heaven the voices of millions of angels and men surround the throne saying, “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, riches, wisdom, might, honor, glory and blessing” and they all fall down and worship.
