"Appointed Angels in Your Life"by Kent Simpson, Gainesville, Texas

From the Desk of Steve Shultz:

Steve ShultzAngels are very real...and they are here to minister to us. There are so many accounts of how angels assisted those mentioned in the Bible in many circumstances...and some you will read about here in Kent Simpson's article.
Kent shares:
There are so many references to angels in the Bible. If you were to look up all of the encounters, you would surely be blessed to know that angels are still here ministering for us. They are making sure that the word of God is fulfilled in your life.
That is reassuring! I encourage you to read this word and ask the Lord to show you just how His angels are ministering in your life!

"Appointed Angels in Your Life"by Kent Simpson, Gainesville, Texas

Tabernacle of Angels
In 1991, Oral Roberts prophesied that many people would begin to have encounters with the Lord's angels in the years to come. Since that time, there have been a number of documentaries in which common people have testified about their experiences with angels. A weekly television series called Touched by an Angel was created in this same decade and has been viewed by millions. There have been virtually hundreds of editorials, books, and devotionals written, even calendars printed, which give witness to the presence of angels in our midst.

There is Biblical evidence that angels can also create mass destruction. Sodom and Gomorrah were consumed by fire, but it was not an ordinary fire. God's wrath manifested by His angels annihilated these two cities. Today, archaeologists are still trying to locate the exact location where these sinful cities once flourished.

Elisha and his servant witnessed the presence of angels when they were surrounded by their enemy, who had come to kill them. Elisha was not afraid. Why? Because he saw thousands of angels standing behind his enemy, ready to protect him and his servant in the spirit realm (2 Kings 6:15-18).

Territorial Angels
There are territorial angels of God as well as spirits of the evil one. The Church is a great place to find angels. A pub or bar is a good place to find a demon. There are also countries with a large number of angel or demon inhabitants, depending on their religion.
Have you ever walked into a service and felt power hit you? That was the presence of the Lord's angelic host. Ever been caught up in praise and worship and felt someone touch you, yet when you opened your eyes there was no one there? Maybe you have experienced goosebumps while in praise and worship. All of these events are angelic encounters.
Now that we have all these angelic beings with us, we must ask, "Why they are here?" Our Lord Jesus is setting the stage where many of us will find ourselves being the voice of His commandments to these angels who have massive powers.
Appointed Angels of God
What father would not come to the defense of his children, knowing he had the power to protect them? Here again, allow me to ask this question of those who are shepherds of a portion of God's flock. Do you feel called to stand aside and do nothing if you witness the enemy of God destroying what you have been placed over to protect? Our Lord has empowered you to use His power to do all that you can to protect and preserve the Church.

It will not be long before we start seeing many of these appointed angels of God raising the dead on the word of those who have an ear to hear what the Spirit of the Lord is proclaiming from His throne. Others will stand in the midst of a deadly storm and command it to be still by the word of the Lord - and it will. Whatever you can think of as being a miracle, you will soon begin to be a part of the signs and wonders taking place daily across the nation and in other lands.

Maybe you thought that all these years we have been equipping the saints for the work of the ministry and learning to pray, hear, and obey, was all just to bless the Church. Well, you would be wrong! We have just begun to see all that He has proclaimed that you and I will do! Because greater works we shall do than these, says He! (John 14:12).

Angels of Our Lord
When Jesus was born in a manger, there was an army raised to find Him. Every child two years old or under was to be slaughtered because King Herod heard that a king was born. Herod feared losing his position.
An angel appeared unto Joseph and Mary and warned them to leave Judea because Herod sought the life of their newborn son. They left and stayed away for a number of years. Eventually, an angel appeared to them again and let them know that it was safe to return, for King Herod was dead. This was just the beginning of many encounters with angelic hosts in the ministry of Jesus Christ.

When Jesus stood before those who were to judge Him on Earth, Pontius Pilate said to him, "Do You not know that I hold Your life in my hands? I can give life or I can take it" (see John 19). Jesus replied that Pilate did not know what he was talking about. Jesus knew He had thousands of angels at His disposal at He said, "Do you think I cannot call on My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels?"(Matthew 26:53). At His word, the angels could have destroyed everything.

When Jesus walked into a city, people came from everywhere to seek Him. Jesus did not have to advertise His presence. People just showed up in the middle of nowhere because the angels of the Lord gathered them. Many times Jesus could not find a place to be alone so that He could seek the will of the Father. These encounters are important to us because they are examples of how our lives should be. We are not to worship or pray to angels, but they are there as ministering spirits to minister for us.

Acts 12 tells the story of when Peter was in prison and the congregation was praying for his safe return. An angel went to the prison and struck Peter to wake him up. The angel told him to get his things, then led him out of prison. Peter came to the house where they were praying for him and knocked on the door. A girl peeped out and saw Peter but did not let him in; instead, she went to tell the others he was there. They replied that it could not be Peter at the door, so it must be his angel. Why would they say such a thing?

There are so many references to angels in the Bible. If you were to look up all of the encounters, you would surely be blessed to know that angels are still here ministering for us. They are making sure that the word of God is fulfilled in your life. It should be an effortless deed to walk in the supernatural! When you believe and understand an appointed angel's purpose is to minister for you, your life begins to flow in the supernatural.
