Our Guardian Angels Watch Over Us.

Our Guardian Angels Watch Over Us.

By JAG

September 18,2021

Based on . . . Matthew 18:1-10 Hebrews 1:14 Psalms 34:7 many have concluded that each of we Christians have at least one, or more, Guardian Angles that are assigned to watchcare and protect us during our lifetime.

Matthew 18:10 “See that you do not despise one of these little ones. For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in heaven."

Hebrews 1:14 "Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?"

Psalms 34:7 "The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.".

The context of Matthew 18:1-10 requires that we interpret Matthew 18:10's "one of these little ones" to be a reference to we adult Christians. (Jesus is telling adults to take the lowly place of children, that is to become properly humble).

So?

So we adult Christians are in that group that have "angels in heaven" ~~~ ("their angels in heaven." Matthew 18:10)

So?

So based upon Matthew 18:1-10 and Hebrews 1:14 and Psalms 34:7 ~~ we Christians DO have Guardian Angels that watch over us. Its NOT . . . ONLY . . . young children that have Guardian Angles that watch over them.

Of course, our Guardian Angels start their protecting work, watching over us, when we are very young.

The world of Angels is as real as it gets.

There is an unseen world out there that you can't see, that is actually more real than this world that you can see.

How so?

Well, the people and most of the things of this world are in the process of dying or rotting or rusting away, but the people and things of That Other World Heaven are not. dying rotting, and rusting away.

That which is NOT dying, rotting, and rusting away, is more real than that which IS dying, rotting, and rusting away. Notice I said "more real." This world IS real, but That Other World Heaven is more real.

So Angels are as real as it gets. You can't see them, but they can see you. They know who you are. they know your name and they know where you live.

And they like you ~ actually its reasonable to believe they love you . Why? Because they would love what God loves and God loves you.

Here is a list of some Bible verses/passages if you ever want to "do a read up" on what the Bible has to say about Angels:

Luke 15:10

Psa. 103:20

Ex.23:20

Psa 91:11

Luke 1:19

Judges 6:11-12

2 Kings 6:15-17

Acts 10:4

Acts 12:7-9

Dan. 9: 21-23

Matt. 1:18

Gen 24:40

Gen 19:1-11

Matt. 13:41-42

Thoughts?

I love that pic.
I have it on my wall.
I gave a copy to my son and grandson.
I would have posted that pic inside my OP if I understood
how to post pics in this particular forum. I was told once
how to do it, but I never could get the hang of it.
Anyway, thanks for posting that pic.

Best.
