![]() ![]() They are also responsible for ministering to us and guiding us toward salvation. The Holy Scripture has shown us that the spiritual beings present in the presence of God are simultaneously giving up our prayers to Him and their prayers on our behalf. Deliver my heart so I can praise, love, and think about God’s kindness forever and ever with you. But more than anything, come to my aid while I fight for my life. Please don’t leave me be close and protect me from the evil spirit. God hath sent thee, my dear angel, to watch over me. One Last Prayer To The Angels Of Protection O prince of the heavenly host, by the power of God, cast into hell Satan and all the other evil spirits who prowl through the world seeking the ruin of souls. Please defend us on the day of battle be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. O flaming Seraphim, fan the flame of altruism in our hearts. O bright Cherubim, shine divine knowledge into our souls. O holy thrones, bring us harmony with both God and man. O strong dominations grant us control over our flesh’s insurrection. Give us bravery and strength in the struggle of life, o divine Virtues. O mighty powers, shield us from the demons’ cunning. O heavenly Archangels, be our guides on the way to heaven! The angelic choir of the Principalities rules over us both physically and spiritually. Please keep vigil over us as we navigate this dangerous world. As they provide for our material and spiritual needs as we travel the path to salvation, this ministry manifests itself in various ways. “Aren’t all angels ministering spirits sent out to serve for the benefit of those who are to find salvation?” according to Hebrews 1:14. There are innumerable other ways in which angels support us. All we have to do is ask for their help and have faith in Jesus’ assurance that they constantly see the face of our heavenly Father. This is a prayer that everyone should say every day, not simply as a “child’s prayer.” The prayer acknowledges that they can affect our lives and exist due to God’s love for us. The purpose of our holy guardian angels is to keep us safe, lead us to eternal life, and protect us. The prayer has ingrained itself in Catholic culture and is handed down from generation to generation. It is a short prayer that is easy to memorize and asks the guardian angel to intercede on their behalf. Many children have learned the “Angel of God” prayer from their parents in religious education classes and Catholic institutions over the last century. The Angel Of God’s PrayerĪngel of God, my dear guardian, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this day be at my side, to light and guard, to rule and guide. The Bible demonstrates that God will frequently “create the way out” of a struggle by providing a person with the knowledge and fortitude to persevere. ![]() They also do not shield God’s people from all tribulations or temptations. However, some have sinned by siding with Satan in his fight against God instead of choosing what is right.Īlthough angels watch over the spiritual well-being of God’s followers, this does not imply that God personally appoints them to watch over every Christian (Matthew 18:10). They can think and create hymns of worship to God (Luke 2:13–14). One of them can speak to the other (1 Corinthians 13:1). ![]() For instance, the apostle John saw hundreds of millions of angels in a vision given to him.Įach angel has a unique personality. The Bible does not specify a precise number, but it does show that there were a significant number of them and that they “began shouting in applause” as God formed the planet. Before the planet formed, in the distant past, angels were created. These “sons of the true God” were all individually formed. They don’t get married or have kids (Mark 12:25). The Bible describes how God used Jesus in creation: “Utilizing Jesus, all other things were created in the heavens and on earth, the things visible and the things invisible, including the angels.” The Bible calls Jesus “the firstborn of all creation,” and it says that through Jesus, God created the angels. Several times in the Bible, they respond to our petitions on God’s behalf or serve as His means of making known His will or plans. As a result, they are also called spirits. They are present in heaven, also known as the “spirit realm,” a plane of existence above the physical universe (1 Kings 8:27 John 6:38). Angels are supernatural beings with more strength and ability than people (2 Peter 2:11). ![]()
