Angels on Assignment
"Angels are not those kinds of beings that you can just sit around and influence them because they're sent to do a certain thing, and they have to be obedient, and they fear God"
~ Dr. Kevin L. Zadai
After you watch the video and read the study notes on this page, answer these questions here on the Blog mentioned above:
Lord, you know everything there is to know about me. You perceive every movement of my heart and soul, and you understand my every thought before it even enters my mind. You are so intimately aware of me, Lord. You read my heart like an open book, and you know all the words I'm about to speak before I even start a sentence! You know every step I will take before my journey even begins. You've gone into my future to prepare the way, and in kindness you follow behind me to spare me from the harm of my past. You have laid your hand on me! This is just too wonderful, deep, and incomprehensible! Your understanding of me brings me wonder and strength.
—Psalm 139:1-6
You even formed every bone in my body when you created me in the secret place; carefully, skillfully you shaped me from nothing to something. You saw who you created me to be before I became me! Before I'd ever seen the light of day, the number of days you planned for me were already recorded in your book. —Psalm 139:15-16 (TPT)
DISCUSSION:
Angels implement God's plans and purposes in your life. They harken under the voice of the Lord, and they do God's bidding. They are flames of fire. God appoints angels with special assignments to make sure you're taken care of in every situation. The Lord gives His angels charge over you (Psalm 91:11).
• Angels are sent by God and briefed beforehand.
• They don't have an opinion, nor do they operate like we do with each other.
• We can sit and reason things out, and we change people's minds having them reconsider another angle or view.
• Angels are not the kind of beings you can influence because they're sent to do specific things.
• They have to be obedient to God, and they fear Him. They don't fear you.
• Angels are assigned to enforce and accomplish the books in Heaven that are written about you.
• Each one of your days is written in a book before they come to pass. The Lord already knows everything that's going to happen.
• He has plans for you to prosper with an expected end. The angels are sent to fulfill it.
• They are known as His faithfulness. They sit around the throne, faithful to God.
• They surround you, and they're assigned to keep you in all your ways.
• They know the number of days that God has planned for you.
• They look in your books and see what He has designed for you that day.
• The angels go ahead of you and set it up so that you're protected in a greater way.
Rely on the Lord's faithfulness to see you through and enter into His rest. As you passionately seek after Him, you'll begin to see a change take place in your life. The things that used to happen don't happen anymore, like sickness. For example, it doesn't seem to happen much anymore. God's goal is to seal up the holes in your life where His secret service agents are around you all the time, making sure certain things don't happen.
How does this impact you, knowing that God cares so much about your individual life that He would send angels on assignment for you?
AGREEING WITH OUR ANGELS
In the Bible, the whole idea is to seek God, walk in the fear of the Lord, and agree with God's Word. There is also another side to it: with the Angels; they love when we get what they're trying to do. They feel like it's an easy assignment when were aware. When you understand the process of being led by the Spirit and walking with God in synchronization with Heaven's Kingdom, and there's not a lot of resistance or hesitation, it's easier for the Angels to come alongside us and help.
If you start doubting and have unbelief, the angels get affected by it. Jesus addressed the disciples because of their unbelief as they did not see miracles. Praying in tongues plays a big part in stirring up your faith. It's the quickest way to get in the Spirit and walk by faith and pray in your native language so your mind can hear it, and you can agree to initiate correction.
How can you come in agreement with the angelic by faith?
Matthew 26:53: Do you think that I cannot now pray to Father and he will provide me with more than 12 legions of angels.
Jesus had access to angels at all times, but He didn't always use them. Twelve legions of angels are the equivalent to tens of thousands of angels at Jesus's request. That's a lot of angels. You have to remember that just because you're not encountering angels doesn't mean that you're not going to and that they're not available to you. Jesus didn't always call on His angels because He was walking in synchronization with His Father. Jesus said, "at any one time, I can call on these angels, and they would be there to deliver me."
Discuss: How having access to your angels provides you with peace knowing you can call on them at any time and you are covered.
ASPECTS OF ANGELS
• Often what we would attribute to God and Jesus or the Holy Spirit is actually an angel.
• It could be an angel with a scroll and says something to you, and we wouldn't know.
• Angels are behind the scenes and don't make themselves known. They're around you all the time and make things happen, but they just don't want to get the attention for it.
• Just because you don't hear, see or feel an angel is no indication that you're being neglected; they sometimes just don't want to be noticed.
• Angels are very humble. They don't need to be recognized or loved and valued like humans do.
• Angels were meant to serve God, and they're more military-minded.
Their whole process is that they want to please God.
• If you dismiss them, they will try another way to carry out God's plan. They don't accept no as an answer.
• You can grieve your angels. In the Old Testament, God warned the Israelites not to grieve His angel because he won't tolerate your sin or your unbelief. When they grieved him, they all fell in the desert dead. They offended their angel.
• Angels aren't humans, so they don't have the same emotions as we do. They are more task-oriented to fulfill what they've been assigned to do.
