INTRODUCTION:
God has assigned angels as ministering spirits to serve those who are heirs of salvation. These heavenly beings are powerful agents of God’s will, sent to intervene in the affairs of men. They have always been active in fulfilling God’s purpose—delivering messages, executing judgement, protecting God’s people, and facilitating miracles.
In the Old and New Testaments, angels played key roles in moments of supernatural breakthroughs. From Abraham’s encounter at Mamre to Peter’s miraculous release from prison, we see that God deploys angels to work wonders. Their ministry did not end in Bible times; angels are still at work today, responding to God’s Word and the prayers of His people.
However, to fully experience their ministry, believers must live in alignment with God’s Word, walk in faith, and actively engage their assistance. Understanding their purpose and applying biblical principles positions us for angelic intervention that turns impossibilities into testimonies.
1. UNDERSTANDING THE MINISTRY OF ANGELS

c) Angels Execute God’s Word
They respond swiftly when God’s Word is spoken in faith (Psalm 103:20).
