Angel Ministry #2
(Commissioning)
This is #2 study of angels. The last time we saw why the increase of angle appearances. (We are living in a time of changing dispensations)
We talked about the Purpose of Angel Ministry. (God’s Messengers)
We saw how they delivered Mercy to people even when they did not deserve it. (Lot)
We saw how God delivered Israel because of Repentance, Word of God, and prayer.
Heb.1: 14 Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
You ought to be excited when we see that God has sent angels to minister to you because you are a child of God.
Ps.34: 7 The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
THIS IS FOR YOU.
Ps. 91:11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
This means at least two angels are in charge of you.
Heb.2:1 Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard lest at any time we should let them slip
We are told that we are to pay close attention to the things we have heard about angels. We tend to forget the power and provisions that are ours as we struggle through the trials of life.
3 How shall we escape if we neglect so great salvation;
Your escape of the difficult times of your life depends upon the ATTENTION we pay to Angel Ministry.
We all know that We are to live by faith and without faith it is impossible to please God. We also know most of us don’t walk in faith all the time. We are in disobedience some time, our words kills
our harvest sometimes, but God uses ANGEL MINISTRY TO DELIVER US when we “blow it”
We know people that are children of God that suffers defeat and captivity. We know that is not the “will of God”.
The Will of God is for blessings, provision, and liberty. Some children of God get these things and others do not.
We must understand how we can be the ones that are recipients of Angel Ministry.
Ex.23:20 Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared
God still sends Angels to prepare a way for us.
We do not want to just receive Mercy but to Commission our angels.
We want to make more earnest heed to the things a reality.
2 Cor.4:17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory;
18 While we look not at the things which are seen but at the things which are not seen for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.
When we look at this scripture we see something that will cause us to only suffer “Light afflictions for a moment” and that is something most of us would be happy with.
My favorite scripture is “and it come to pass”.
What is the secret of a short light problem?
LOOKING AT THE UNSEEN.
This is not impossible but it does take practice.
Most of us look at the things that we taste, feel and hear. THESE ARE TEMPROAL. These things will cause your problems to be long and hard.
We must learn to see the unseen world. (SPIRITUAL WORLD) THIS IS WHAT MAKES OUR PROBLEMS light and only for a moment.
HOW DO WE MAKE THAT SHIFT?
2 Kings 6:8 Then the king of Syria warred against Israel, and took counsel with his servants, saying In such and such a place shall be my camp.
9 And the man of God sent unto the king of Israel, saying Beware that thou pass not such a place; for thither the Syrians are come down.
10 And the king of Israel sent to the place which the man of God told him and warned him of, and saved himself there, not once nor twice.
11 Therefore the heart of the king of Syria was sore troubled for this thing; and he called his servants, and said unto them, Will ye not shew me which of us is for the king of Israel?
12 And one of his servants said None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber.
13 And he said Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying Behold, he is in Dothan.
14 Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about
