Psalm 91:10–11
"No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling; for He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways."
Don’t you just sense your Father’s love in these words? Like a mother hen that spreads her wings over her chicks to protect them, God will “cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge” (Psalm 91:4). So don’t be fearful of accidents, terrorist attacks, diseases or tsunamis because your heavenly Father loves you and watches over you.
One of the ways He does this is with His angels. God has declared that no evil, plague or accident will befall you or even come near your dwelling “for He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.” When He says “no,” He means “no-thing”! And if He tells His angels to “keep you in all your ways,” it means round-the-clock divine protection for you!
Let me share with you a true story. A Christian was flying his plane when he realized that it was low on fuel. He contacted the air traffic controller and asked for assistance to land. But he was told that he could not land because there was a heavy fog. Then, the radio went silent and the plane entered the fog.
He was flying blindly when he suddenly heard over his headphones, “Pull up! Pull up!” He pulled up just in time to avoid hitting the expressway! Then, the voice said, “Follow my instructions and I will help you land safely.”
He obeyed and landed perfectly. Thinking that it was the air traffic controller who had helped him, he immediately looked for him to thank him. But when he found him, the man said, “Listen, we lost contact with you when I told you that there was a heavy fog. None of us managed to speak to you after that.” The pilot realized then that God had sent an angel to lead him to safety.
Beloved, your heavenly Father is watching over you. That is why no evil will befall you, nor will any plague come near your dwelling. And He has a host of angels to keep you in all your ways!
"I'M HERE TO TELL YOU" EDITOR'S NOTE
Do you believe in God's provisions and protection? Do you believe that God wants to help you, His beloved? Do you believe that there are uncounted millions of angels ready to do God's will? The dictionary says an angel is a spirit attendant or guardian. The Bible says that angels are God's messengers and helpers. The Bible is full of stories about angels and what they do. Some fell from heaven and became demons. Sometimes it's easier for people to believe in demons rather than angels. The fact is that many times God has helped us, it's been directly through His angels. There have probably been many times we've encountered angels and simply weren't aware. Imagine that. We live in a physical world and are usually unaware of the spiritual world all around us. Today, let's ask God to help us see the spiritual, after all God is spirit and must be worshiped in spirit and after Jesus died for us, He gave us His Holy Spirit to dwell inside us. It's probably time to get more spiritual.
