One of my favorite verise of scripture concerning Angels
is HEB 13:2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers:
for therby some have entertained angels unawares.
We like to romanticize angels, which over the years have
allowed angels to become many things to many people. I urge
you to check the bible on the facts about angels and to stick
with the facts. This much I can tell you, you can't trust
all angles, remember that the devil was once an angel. According
to the bible, with the possible exception of one debatable
passage in Zechariah 5:9, angels always appear
as males rather than females (Mark 16:5).
In Genesis 18, Abraham welcomed three angelic
guests who appeared at first to be nothing more than some
travellers. Angels in the Bible never appear as cute, chubby
infants with wings! They are always full-grown adults. When
people in the Bible saw an angel, their typical response was
to fall on their faces in fear and awe. The one thing the
bible teaches us is that Angels are servents of God and that
God uses Angels for various thing. This does not mean that
we should pray to angels, it means that we should ask God
to send Angels to help and protect us.
How Does God
Use Angels?
God often uses angels as His means of answering the prayers
of His people (Daniel 9:20-24; 10:10-12; Acts 12:1-17).
God has used angels to provide physical needs such as food
for Hagar (Genesis 21:17-20), Elijah (1
Kings 19:6), and Christ after His temptation (Matthew
4:11). Angels also serve as messengers to communicate
God's will to men. They helped reveal the law to Moses (Acts
7:52-53), and served as the carriers of much of the
material in Daniel, and Revelation.
