Revelation 7:11
And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God.

In the book of Revelation, John sees the angels of heaven bowing down and worshipping the Almighty. God is the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning, and the End, and all of Creation knows it. Not only did God create the universe and breathe life into you, but by sacrificing His only begotten son He rescued you from yourself. You owe Him your worship not just for being the God of the universe, but also for being our Savior who loved us and paid for our sins with His blood. And at the end of our time here on earth, when you and I are gathered in Heaven with the angels, every knee will bow, and every tongue will glorify the Lord.

Luke 15:10
Just so, I tell you, there is joy before the angels of God over one sinner who repents.”

God’s love for you is too vast to imagine, and He loves all His children with the same infinite affection. It’s His will that none should perish, and the will of the Lord is the will of His angels. When even one sinner repents and comes to know Christ, not only is God filled with joy, but so are His servants. The Word tells us that there is great rejoicing in heaven when souls are saved, and this should encourage us even more to share the gospel and see lives changed. The next time you have the opportunity to present the message of salvation to someone, remember that there are angels rooting for you.

1 Peter 5:8
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.

The Word tells us that Satan himself was once an angel. However, his pride and ambition to be like God caused him to rebel, and through trickery he wreaked havoc on God’s creation. But Satan was not the only one who would be cast out of heaven; angels exist, but so do demons, who like their master chose to betray God and were punished for it. While the scriptures do tell us that demons are real, it also assures us not to be afraid of them. The devil’s goal is to deceive you and turn you away from God, but by holding fast to the Word and the truth of salvation, you render the enemy and his servants all but useless.

Hebrews 13:2
Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers, for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

The bible doesn’t tell us everything there is to know about angels. However, we do know that they serve the Almighty in both the spiritual and the physical world, and they have even disguised themselves as people to carry out God’s purposes. The Lord wants us to be kind and hospitable to everyone we meet, showing the love of Christ not only to our friends but also to strangers. By doing this, the Word tells us that some have entertained angels without knowing it. Show grace and goodness to everyone you meet; you might not meet an angel, but you will meet a person, infinitely loved by God, whom He has called you to treat with love and humility.

Psalm 91:11
For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.

Angels are Gods servants, created by Him to deliver messages, stand against evil, and enact the Lord’s will on earth. They appear to many different people throughout the bible, helping those whom God had called and even destroying those who opposed Him. Angels are very present throughout the scriptures, and the same is true today. The Lord commands His angels concerning us, and His mighty servants are always on the move. Take courage in knowing that, even in the corrupt and often scary world you live in, the angels of the Lord are never far.

Mark 12:30
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.

God is the Creator of the universe. Every atom and every breath belong to Him, and each day you and I live out is a day that He created. As if that wasn’t enough reason to cherish our Father, the sacrifice of His son on the cross is the reason we have hope for an eternity in paradise. So love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength; your relationship with Him should never be left on the back burner. Christ loved you and died for you, and it’s His hope that we are able to fully and completely love Him back.
