Read David Jeremiah Devotional 29th November 2023, Wednesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: Always Serving God
Bless the Lord, you His angels, who excel in strength, who do His word, heeding the voice of His word. – Psalm 103:20
Recommended Reading: Psalm 91:9-12
From Genesis to Revelation, angels are referred to nearly three hundred times. Angel means “messenger”—and Psalm 103:20 pictures that as their primary ministry: carrying out the word of God. Their “message” to mankind might be verbal—as in Gabriel’s announcement to Mary about the birth of Jesus—or non-verbal, like the angel who shut the lions’ mouths when Daniel was thrown into their den.
There is also evidence that they minister in unseen realms, unknown to humans on earth—as in the messenger who was sent to Daniel with an answer to prayer but was opposed for three weeks in the heavenlies by an evil angel until Michael, the archangel, came to his aid (Daniel 10:10-13). What spiritual warfare might be happening in the heavenlies on our behalf at this very moment that we don’t know about? The point is that angels are the primary means and messengers for God as He carries out His plans for mankind.
Give thanks to God today for His angels, for their role in serving God and His people, and for their protection. Though unseen—mostly (Hebrews 13:2)—they are continually at work.
Angels’ function is to execute the plan of divine providence, even in earthly things.
