Angels of God
77Michael
THE ANGELS OF GOD
The angels of God are here to support believers and also to carry out Gods wrath and Judgements.
Watchers (translates as " iyr " in Aramaic) and means, watchful, wakeful one, watcher, angel
Da:4:13: I saw in the visions of my head upon my bed, and, behold, a watcher and an holy one came down from heaven;
Da:4:23: And whereas the king saw a watcher and an holy one coming down from heaven,
They also defeated Lucifer and his Angels (Demons) and cast them to earth.
ANGELS EXISTED BEFORE MAN WAS CREATED
Ge:3:24: So he drove out the man; and he placed at the east of the garden of Eden Cherubims, and a flaming sword which turned every way, to keep the way of the tree of life.
Ex:25:18: And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
Ex:25:19: And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
Ex:25:20: And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
THE ANGELS ARE CREATED BEINGS AND ARE OF A HIGHER ORDER THAN MAN
Psalms:8:4: What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
Psalms:8:5: For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
1) Cherubims are angels
2) Nature of angels not the same as man’s nature.
Heb:2:16: For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.
3) Will be equal at the Resurrection.
Lu:20:36: Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection.
ANGELS ARE REAL BEINGS AND NOT SIMPLY GOOD THOUGHTS
They are can become visible, they talk, they can be touched, they eat, and sleep
Ge:18:1: And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
Ge:18:2: And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
Ge:18:4: Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
Ge:18:5: And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
Ge:18:6: And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
Ge:18:7: And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
Ge:18:8: And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
Ge:19:1: And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.
Ge:19:2: And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
Ge:19:3: And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
Psalms:78:25: Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full.
Heb:13:2: Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
THE NUMBER AND ORDER OF THE ANGELS
Da:7:10: A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
Re:5:11: And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
Note.......10,000 times10,000 is100,000,000, this was only part of the heavenly host
Heb:12:22: But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
M't:26:53: Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
A legion in Roman times was from 5000 to 6000 men. The order of the angels, as well as number, is
seen in these scriptures.
Ro:8:37: Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
Ro:8:38: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Eph:1:21: Far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this world, but also in that which is to come:
Eph:3:10: To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God,
Col:1:16: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
Jude:1:6: And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
THE STRENGTH AND SURPASSING GLORY OF THE ANGELS
Da:10:5: Then I lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a certain man clothed in linen, whose loins were girded with fine gold of Uphaz.
Da:10:6: His body also was like the beryl, and his face as the appearance of lightning, and his eyes as lamps of fire, and his arms and his feet like in colour to polished brass, and the voice of his words like the voice of a multitude.
M't:28:2: And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
M't:28:3: His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
Re:18:1: And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
Psalms:103:20: Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word.
Ac:12:7: And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him, and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side, and raised him up, saying, Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
Ac:12:8: And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself, and bind on thy sandals. And so he did. And he saith unto him, Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
Eze:1:13: As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; and the fire was bright, and out of the fire went forth lightning.
Eze:1:14: And the living creatures ran and returned as the appearance of a flash of lightning.
Da:9:21: Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
MINISTERING SPIRITS TO GOD’S PEOPLE
Heb:1:13: But to which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?
Heb:1:14: Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?
Psalms:34:7: The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
Ge:28:12: And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
Ge:24:7: The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father's house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.
Ge:48:16: The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
Ex:23:20: Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.
Ex:23:21: Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.
1Ki:19:5: And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.
1Ki:19:6: And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.
Da:6:22: My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lions' mouths, that they have not hurt me: forasmuch as before him innocency was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.
Ac:27:23: For there stood by me this night the angel of God, whose I am, and whom I serve,
EVERY CHILD OF GOD HAS A GUARDIAN ANGEL
M't:18:10: Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.
Psalms:34:7: The angel of the LORD encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
Ac:12:15: And they said unto her, Thou art mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. Then said they, It is his angel.
Psalms:91:11: For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
Psalms:91:12: They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
THE ANGELS ARE INTERESTED IN MAN’S SALVATION
1Pe:1:10: Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you.
1Pe:1:11: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.
1Pe:1:12: Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into.
Lu:2:9: And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

Lu:2:11: For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

Lu:2:13: And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
Lu:2:14: Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
Re:8:3: And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
Re:8:4: And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand.
Lu:15:10: Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repenteth.
THE ANGELS EXECUTE GOD’S JUDGMENTS
Re:15:1: And I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvellous, seven angels having the seven last plagues; for in them is filled up the wrath of God.
Re:16:1: And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth.
Ge:19:13: For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.
Nu:22:22: And God's anger was kindled because he went: and the angel of the LORD stood in the way for an adversary against him. Now he was riding upon his ass, and his two servants were with him.
1Ch:21:14: So the LORD sent pestilence upon Israel: and there fell of Israel seventy thousand men.
1Ch:21:15: And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshingfloor of Ornan the Jebusite.
2Ch:32:21: And the LORD sent an angel, which cut off all the mighty men of valour, and the leaders and captains in the camp of the king of Assyria. So he returned with shame of face to his own land. And when he was come into the house of his god, they that came forth of his own bowels slew him there with the sword.
Ac:12:23: And immediately the angel of the Lord smote him, because he gave not God the glory: and he was eaten of worms, and gave up the ghost.
M't:13:39: The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
M't:13:40: As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
M't:13:41: The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity;
M't:13:42: And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.
THE ANGELS WILL COME TO GATHER THE REDEEMED AT THE COMING OF THE LORD
1Th:4:16: For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
M't:24:30: And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
M't:24:31: And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Two Angels were prominent in the Bible other than Lucifer, BEING Michael, and Gabriel
Gabriel
Da:8:16: And I heard a man's voice between the banks of Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
Da:9:21: Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
Lu:1:19: And the angel answering said unto him, I am Gabriel, that stand in the presence of God; and am sent to speak unto thee, and to shew thee these glad tidings.
Lu:1:26: And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth.
Michael
Da:10:13: But the prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; and I remained there with the kings of Persia.
Da:10:21: But I will shew thee that which is noted in the scripture of truth: and there is none that holdeth with me in these things, but Michael your prince.
Da:12:1: And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book.
Jude:1:9: Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.
Re:12:7: And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

Thanks bro
Hop you got something from it
God speed
Looks like every scripture reference about angels, fantastic. I notice that there is a reference in the NT about an angel disputing with the Devil for Moses's body, do you know what this is about? Is there any other scripture concerning this? Great hub.
Alexander Mark
I dont think the dispute was for Moses's body, but more like about his body.
I think its more like Where is Moses and we see that he was buried by God.
De:34:6: And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Beth-peor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
M't:17:3: And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.
So Moses was resurrected by God some time.Moses was also the Christ type to complete the promise of resurrection of the dead.
Elias and Moses. Elias (Elijah) taken away before death and covered by a Holy garment (Holy Spirit) and Moses the Law.
Go well
Wow, so much information in one hub, I am very pleased to read this, I never knew that there was in fact so much in the Bible about angels.
Rebecca E
Hi there, there is much more.
Thanks for your comment
Go well

Kim Garcia
Thanks for the comment, In try and say as little as possible because the scriptures speak for themselves.
Go well
your hub says
EVERY CHILD OF GOD HAS A GUARDIAN ANGEL
Where were the Guardian Angels for Adam and Eve?
Who would put cherubs in the Garden of Eden?
Reading the
Bible is like finding a science book written in the same time period, it would be out of date and incorrect in many of its theories.
opinion duck
Are you sure I said that, and not the bible.
I take it you dont read a bible,and how things work. So why will you also die one day like everyone else has done since Adam and Eve??? with Angels watching us die.
You tell me who put the Cherubs in the garden, if there were cherubs in the Garden.
HOOWANTSTOKNOW,
This was wonderful! I actually have a collection of Angels... They are a constant reminder that God's Presence is always with us!
"For He shall give His angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways."
Beautiful illustrations!
Thank you for sharing,
Blessings

Yes there are Angels, although I have never seen one, maybe.I still rely on the Holy spirit moving me. Greater is he that is in me than he that is in the world. So his angels are working together for the Glory of Yeshua, Jesus Christ. After the resurrection we will be as Angels.
Shalom
Wow, Great Info, I want to do a study about Angels and now I can copy this and have a good start. Thanks Gail
Mom Duncan
Thanks for stopping by, have a good time
Go well
HOO
I read the bibles, old and new many times, but they don't have any answers, like where were the guardian angels when Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden?
Nor does it tell us, how many angels there are as a number.
The Trinity is the invention of the New Testament. The God of the Old Testament made appearances and spoke as God to selected people. Jesus on the other hand never acted as a God, just a human messenger. After his death or disappearance he has never spoke another word or reappeared. For that matter neither has the God of the Old Testament.
Without using the bibles, what evidence do you have that God even exists?
opinion duck
1) You say you read the bible, so how come you cant see the words spelling out every detail, The bible is the most interesting book on the Earth and there is no other like it or will ever be.
2)Yes the bible does tell us of the population of Angels in Rev:5:11, and it also tells us of a third that was cast out of heaven to the earth, so you can do the maths.
3)The trinity is explained and described all over the bible, have a read on my hub http://hubpages.com/hub/Trinity-Revealing-Himself-
4) The reason you cant understand the bible is because you have not been Born Again, and your eyes and understanding are still in the dark, and you will not and cant discern things from the Spirit world of God.
5)The bible is a collection of books and letters. Millions of people in the past never had a bible, bibles were not a book then, and people heard about Jesus and began to believe . That is faith without seeing. They also spread the good news about Jesus without bibles.
7)I personally have experienced Gods goodness hundreds of times in all areas of my life, and that is sufficient evidence for me.
Peace
Hoo
Without using the bibles, what evidence do you have that God even exists?
The bibles are not consistent with each other and the God and Jesus are different in their characteristics. Once again, the bible is not self authenticating and the words in them while very well done, were create by humans with a vivid imagination.
There is no exact number of Angels. There are no Guardian Angels. There is no Heaven and there is no Hell. There has been no words from God, Jesus or the Holy Spirit in two thousand years, assuming that you believe in the bible.
While you are basking in your bible God's goodness, take a good look at the rest of the world and see death, pain, suffering and pathetic living conditions. Many of these people, believe as you do about the bible, yet they are not experiencing goodness. Drugs, I understand can also give that feeling of goodness.
Again looking at the world today, it is evident that people have changed in over four thousand years.
The God of your bible was incapable of keeping his angels, so apparently he created us to take their place and worship him. How is that plan working out. The one third of the Angels you cite, left him and they had the personal contact with him.
The power of Evil is dominant and no one needs to learn it or be preached to about it. It just comes natural to humans. Remember that if you throw one bad apple in a barrel of good apples, eventually all the apples turn bad. And, if you throw a good apple into a barrel of bad apples, the good apple turns bad.
Even if there was a Heaven, it would not continue your life as it existed on Earth. There wouldn't be any family, friends, work etc, there would only be an eternity of worship. BTW, why would the Devil punish people that choose him over God? If the Devil punishes them, he is doing the work of God, yet the Devil thinks of himself as God, so the story goes in the Bible.
I am leaving you and your hub, because you have nothing outside of the bible to offer. There is nothing divine about the writings in the bible, it was written by humans for humans without any connection to a real God.
opinion duck
Sorry to see you leaving, just a pity, that you might look else where for "Divinity" which you wont find, as all religions through thousands of years have proved.
Bye
Great collection of scriptural references. Thanx for sharing.

Hoo, Good Hub on the Angels of God and the Fallen angels there is allot of information and documentation with Scripture looks like you did allot of research. The numbers look right on also. Keep up the good work well done. My brother in Christ!
