Worship Activates Angels
The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear
Him, and delivers them.
Psalm 34:7
Beloved, we have a resource that is greater than any
attack the devil can launch against us. Would you like to know how you can
activate angels in your life?
The most important key is worship. As you offer your
praise to the Lord, the passage above tells us that’s when angels are most
active. Our Lord Jesus defined “fear” as “worship” for us. When Satan tempted
Him in the wilderness, Jesus responded by quoting from Deuteronomy 6:13, which
says, “You shall fear the Lord your God.” But He changed the word “fear” to
“worship” and said to the devil, “For it is written, ‘You shall worship the
Lord your God’” (Matt. 4:10, boldface mine).
Beloved, when you worship the Lord, His angels camp all
around you, surrounding you to deliver you. If you are going through a
difficult period in your life and are fearful, choose to worship Him. Fear
fills our hearts when we are occupied with ourselves, but when we worship the
Lord, we become occupied with Him, His beauty, and His goodness, and His angels
surround us like a protective shield.
My ministry receives praise reports from people all over
the world who, upon encountering His love for them personally through the
preaching of the gospel, go on to be conscious of and full of thanksgiving for
His goodness and grace upon their lives. Let me share with you a praise report
from Sophia (who lives in Georgia, US), who’s also experienced the Lord’s
intervention and protection.
Today, I read your Daily Grace Inspiration titled God’s
Angels Are Watching Over You, and was really encouraged. I recall an incident
when my daughter and I were driving down the road behind an eighteen-wheeler
when a vintage-looking car suddenly tried to get between our vehicle and the
truck. I thought, “Why are you—” Right then, I heard a voice inside speak to
me, asking me to be quiet. So I let the car squeeze in front of us. Immediately
after I let the car in, one tire of the eighteen-wheeler blew. Surprisingly,
the vintage car stayed in front of my car, taking the full impact of all the
flying pieces of the exploded tire.
Once there were no more tire pieces coming from the
truck, the vintage car returned to the left side of the road and drove off
quickly. It then dawned on me that perhaps the driver of this car was an angel
of the Lord. I was so encouraged to know that God protects us in these days and
times!
Amen! When God gives His angels charge over you, they go
ahead of you to guard and protect you from all sorts of danger. And yes, they
may even choose to travel in vintage cars. Hebrews 13:2 says, “Be not forgetful
to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares”
(KJV).
