Never Miss Your Angel By Joseph Akinrinola Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Psalm 103:20 Angels are spiritual messengers of God to do His bidding. They also serve as a courier to deliver God’s messages, plans, warnings, provisions, and protection to people. At another time, God uses them to mete out discipline to His children or punishments to His enemies. As God’s children, He places Angels at our disposal to send them on assignments. Because they can see and know much that we don’t or can’t see, coming to our aid makes things easier for them. Most times, they deliver tangible blessings while putting on human form. Similarly, God can use a fellow human being as our Angel. This is especially true when such people save us from a great danger, offer unusual help, redeem us from a hopeless situation, or give us direction when we are at a crossroads of life. Whether in their divine or physical state, Angels can be a link between us and our blessing. The experiences of Zachariah and Mary show they can be a source of blessings or a tool for punishment. (Luke 1:5-38) Missing your Angels is like missing God’s assigned blessings for you. Ask any Christian who has spent considerable time with God and he will tell you of an experience when he or she missed an encounter that turned out to be a God sent FAITH ON EVERY CORNER
Angel? But why do we sometimes miss our Angels? Let me share a few reasons we may fail to identify God sent Angels and some experiences of a few people who failed an appointment with their Angels. Occasionally, we discountenance our Angel because they appear casual. We look down on their age, size, qualifications, or their appearance to determine if they worth our attention. And as the saying goes, we miss our opportunity because they come dressed in work clothes. A young graduate in search of a job was turned away because there was no vacancy. While leaving in dejection, the old gateman asked if he would leave his resume and credentials with him. The young man consented reluctantly, wondering how a gateman could help him. A few days later, this applicant was offered an appointment in one of the area banks. What happened? It turned out the son of the gateman was a manager in that bank. That is strange you may say. Yes, this is what happened. He later told his son that after he retired, he still planned to stay healthy by working as a gatekeeper. Imagine what that young man would have lost if he had insulted or walked out on the gateman who turned out to be his Angel. Over time, I have discovered that personal prejudice accounts for many of the reasons why we miss our divine appointments. This may be due to the color of the skin, class, or status.
