TRUE STORY of Angels

Angels in the Bible are the topic of the day.

Part one.

Who are angels? The first question we face is, "Who are angels?" Let us go to the scriptures. When we study the Old Testament, for instance, we find that angels are mentioned 108 times. Angels intercede in the lives of the elders Abraham and Jacob, as the Book of Genesis shows, and in the Book of Exodus, Moses also encountered angels during his wandering in the wilderness. Exodus 14:19 says then that the angel of God who had gone before the camp of Israel withdrew and went behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from before them and stood behind them. In total, the word "angel" appears in the book of the law and the writings of Moses 32 times. The angels of God are introduced to us in the scriptures as the host of heaven. Angels are real beings; they are not mythical figures or opinions; they are spiritual personalities and have a physical impact. Just like the demon world is hidden, the angelic world is also hidden. Angels surround us; their dynamic impact is undeniable, although you may not see them. There is nothing that the angels of God do not observe; we might not be able to touch them, yet angels touch people; you cannot handle them, yet they can destroy kings. In the Bible, the Lord chose a particular angel to go onward with Moses to Egypt, and he alone trashed a whole nation. Invincibility is a major feature of the angels of God. This invincible feature indicates the point of difference between demons and angels. Only the hosts of heaven excel in strength. Psalm 103:20 says, "Bless the Lord, ye his angels that excel in strength that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word." Once upon a time, there was a war in heaven, and the hosts of heaven were led by angels. Michael battled against Satan and his angels. God used his angels to face Satan's fallen army. Satan could not succeed, and there was no more room or space found for him in heaven, as Revelation 12:7–9 tells us, and there was a war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon fought, and his angels prevailed, but neither was their place found any more in heaven, and the Great Dragon was cast out. That old serpent called the devil and Satan, which deceives the whole world, was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. In any conflict, the angels always succeed, flushing out the opposition completely. We see that angels have never been known to fail. There is nothing that can arise against you that matches the strength they form. The bodyguards of the redeemed, apart from excelling in physical strength, also shine in intelligence. The Widow of Toccoa, portraying King David's wisdom, likens it to that of angels, but my Lord is wise according to the wisdom of the angel of God to know everything that is on earth.

Part two.

This section discusses the angel classes, their names, and their values. Angels are of a different kind. Our Lord even used a military term for angels when Jesus was led into the garden. Peter got a sword and tried to protect Jesus, whom he loved. Jesus said in Matthew 26:53, "Do you not believe that I can call my father and he will immediately give me more than 12 legions of angels?" The word legion was a Roman military term that referred to about 6,000 soldiers. In general, the largest group of angels are what we might call ordinary angels. Most often, when angels are mentioned in the Bible, these otherwise unknown angels are called "ordinary angels". This seems counterintuitive, because how could these extraordinary created beings be considered merely routine, but somehow this definition is correct compared to the various unique classes or groups of angels that the Bible mentions? The cherubim are the first of the angelic groups to appear in the scriptures; they appear immediately after the fall from grace of Adam and Eve. Genesis 3 tells us about the events in the Garden of Eden. Adam and Eve could reach out and take from the tree of life, eat, and live forever if they disobeyed God's command not to eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. So Adam and Eve had to be let out of the earthly paradise, so the Lord God drove them out of the Garden of Eden to work the land from which they were taken. But what would have prevented Adam from returning to the Garden to obey God a second time? Genesis 3:24: After their expulsion, God the Lord placed powerful cherubim on the eastern side of the Garden of Eden, and He placed a flaming sword that flashed back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life. How terrible it would be if Adam tasted the Tree of Life and thus was forever confirmed in his fallen nature!

God sought a group of great and true people to represent St. More over's sorority. Strikingly, the  subsequent appearance of the cherubim speaks of the restoration of the lost in the word of God. Moses was given clear and precise instructions on how to make various pieces of furniture to be used in the tabernacle in Exodus 25. The first featuPtheo Ccovenant where God promised to meet and communicate wi,  Moses. What  God wanted to put on the closing plate, He chose the golden images of the cherubim; see the interesting description. God gave Moses Genesis 25:18–20: "Make two cherubim of beaten gold for the ends of the cover; make one for the other, and the second for the other; make the cherubim of one piece, so that the cover may be right at each end; the wings of the cherubim shall be stretched upward, covering the cover with its shadow; the cherubim shall be opposite and facing the cover. Seraphim: a distinct group of angels known specifically as seraphim. Seraphim means burning in Hebrew." Isaiah chapter 6 tells us about the seraphim. The prophet Isaiah recalled his glorious vision in these words: I also saw the Lord sitting on a high throne and being lifted up, and his garment filled the temple above it. Above them stood the seraphim. Each of them had six wings. With Twain he covered his face, with Twain his feet, and with Twain he flew." Isaiah 6:1-2 tells what the seraphim did; Isaiah 6:3 says they cried out to one another, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts, and the whole earth is full of his glory." Isaiah once knew that he had no right to be in the holy presence of God, and he admitted it. "Oh my!" I cried, "I am condemned, because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell among a nation of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord of the Almighty." Then a seraphim flew to me with a burning coal in his hand, which he took with his tongue from the altar. For he touched my mouth and said, This has touched your iniquity; your iniquity is taken away, and the creatures atone for your sins. In the King James Version, the third specific group of angels is called the four beasts." However, another translation would be  four living creatures. Like the seraphim, they have six wings, and the four living creatures, each with six wings, are full of eyes around and within, day and night, and they never stop saying: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God. Almighty, who was, is, and is to come Revelation chapters 5, 7, and 19 describe the living creatures in positions of worship and praise. Although in Revelation 15, living creatures participate in the pouring out of God's wrath on unrepentant people, Michael is another angelic archangel. Only one angel has a position in the scriptures.

The word "arch" means chief, so this angel is the most visible of all the holy angels. The archangel's name is Michael. The meaning of Michael is "like God". When you hear this name, you hear the question: Who is like God? As we can see, the men visited by the angels wanted to worship the creature rather than the Creator, so how wonderful and awesome is it that the name of Archangel Michael calls us to turn our attention to Almighty God? The prophet Daniel introduces us to Michael. Daniel prayed, and God sent an answer by the hand of a messenger, who was hindered in his way until he confessed. Daniel 10:13 says: "But the prince of the kingdom of Persia came against me once in twenty days, but behold, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, and I remained there with the king of Persia." So Mikael had to fight for the free movement of God's word. Every time we see him, we assume some kind of spiritual struggle in his role as a fighter. Michael has a special duty to Israel. Daniel 10:21–12 says he is the prince of this nation. I believe that as we read ancient and modern history, we see the hand of Michael protecting Israel. As you know, this small nation has fought four wars with its neighbours since gaining statehood in 1948. The ninth verse of Jude specifically calls Michael the archangel and tells of his battle with Lucifer over the body of Moses. With God's help, Michael won. Michael is God's main hero. Gabriel is the second angel whose name is clearly mentioned in the scriptures. Gabriel lives up to his name because he does really powerful things. Gabriel serves God more like a messenger. On several occasions in the book of Daniel, Gabriel appears to make important announcements about future events, especially concerning the Kingdom of God. For example, after one of Daniel's visions, the prophet pondered the meaning, and then suddenly a man stood before me. Daniel 8:15–16 says that as I looked at the vision and tried to understand it, there stood before me a man who looked like a man, and I heard a man calling Gabriel from outside. Tell this man the meaning of the vision. In the Old Testament, we see the ministry of Gabriel in relation to the kingdom; in the New Testament, he takes care of the king. The first time, Zechariah waited before Jehovah in the temple. Suddenly, Luke 1:19 says that the angel said to him, "I am Gabriel; I stand before God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to announce this good news to you." This good news was about the future birth of John the Baptist, who would become the forerunner of the Lord Jesus. the same Gabriel whom God sent to the city of Nazareth. Luke 1:27 tells of a virgin who promised to marry a man named Joseph, who was a descendant of David; the virgin's name was Mary. What a wonderful message Gabriel had for this young woman! Luke 1:31–32 says you will conceive and give birth to a son, and you must call his name Jesus. He will be great and will be called the son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of his father, David Gabriel, who brought the message of God about the coming kingdom, and the King God gave this particular angel tremendous trust and responsibility. Lucifer: The original name of the angel Satan is found in Isaiah 14:12. This line not only names him but also tells us something important about him: "You are fallen from heaven, morning star, son of the dawn; you are cast to the earth." You, who once humiliated the nations because of your pride and self-exaltation, have lost your high place in heaven. Lucifer sprang from the divine grace of the Father; so where does he act while he is here on earth at two different times?" Our Lord describes Lucifer as the prince of this world in John 12:31. Now is the judgement of this world. Now is the time. This world we live in is his. While the angels Gabriel and Michael have only one name, as far as we know, Lucifer has many that show the characteristics of his evil nature. Many people know him by two other names: the devil and Satan. Jesus also called him evil. John 17:15 says, "My prayer is not that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from evil." Revelation gives him several names, including the Great Dragon, the old serpent, the destroyer, the accuser, the deceivers, the saints, and the watchers. The Bible mentions several smaller classes of angels, such as saints and guardians. Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, said in Daniel 4:13: While I was lying on my bed, I also saw in my visions a watchman, a holy one, coming down from heaven. Daniel 4:17 says that it is according to the order of the watchmen and according to the request of the word of the saints, so that the living may know that the Most High rules the kingdom of men and gives it to whom He wills. and put a male bass player on it. Daniel 4:23 says: "And you, O king, saw a watchman, a holy one, coming down from heaven and saying, "Cut down the tree and destroy it, but leave the roots of the stump with a cord on the ground... iron and bronze around it.
