- [Narrator] There is a realm beyond which our eyes can see.
This realm is invisible and is called the spiritual realm.
This spiritual realm has an immense impact
on the physical realm
and there are personalities that operate in this realm.
Angels are spiritual personalities with physical impact.
Just as the demonic world is invisible,
the angelic world is also invisible.
The ministry of angels has been in existence
ever since God created the world.
When man was made, the Psalmist says;
"he was made a little lower than the angels," Psalm 8: 5.
That means angels occupy a higher realm of being
in term of strength, intelligence,
vigor, power and might than men.
The excellent news is that their higher realm of operation
is for the saints liberty and comfort.
"Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those
who will inherit salvation?" Hebrews 1: 14.
Angels are sent to minister to we, the redeemed.
There are areas of Christian will never cross into
until this area is in place.
And one of the most notable ministries of these last days
will be that of angels.
Angelic intervention is also packaged as one of the most
intricate mysteries of life.
Until such mysteries are uncovered,
the church cannot use them or enjoy them.
Until we know that they are given to us
and what specifically has been granted to us,
we cannot experience the benefit of their being given
neither can we adequately reign.
Because in the kingdom of God, to which we belong,
we rule by knowledge.
They fought against the enemies and armies
that opposed God's people.
The Lord assigned only one angel
to go into Egypt before Moses.
The angels of God are not only invisible,
the angels of God are invincible.
This feature marks the point of departure
between angels and demons.
"Bless the Lord, all his angels mighty in strength
who carry out his word,
who hearkened to the voice of his command." Psalm 103: 20.
Now has come salvation
and strength and the kingdom of our God
and the power of his Christ
for the accuser of our brethren is cast down,
which accused them before our God day and night.
The angels of God fought many battles in the scriptures
and the angels came out as victors in all the battles.
In any conflict, the angels always win in the absolute,
completely flushing out the opposition.
Angels have never been known for failing.
The reason why God has given his angels charge over you
is because you know his name.
"Because he has set his love upon me.
Therefore, I will deliver him.
I will set him on high
because he has known my name." Psalm 91: 14.
When you invoke the name of Jesus,
you trigger off the angels.
The Bible says; "let all the angels worship him."
Therefore at his name,
they come in to do his pleasure on the spot.
Also, as you release the name of Jesus in faith,
a strong tower of angels is built around you.
"The name of the Lord is a stronger tower.
The righteous runneth into it and is safe." Proverbs 18: 10.
in a situation where you cannot think clearly
or remember a scripture, simply invoke the name of Jesus.
There is no emergency under the sun
that could overcome this name.
Many testimonies of the redeemed note that it was enough
to mention this name, to save them.
Jesus said: "anyone who is ashamed of me and my word
I will also be ashamed of him before my father
and his angels." Mark 8: 38
"Whoever therefore, shall be ashamed of me and my words
in this adulterous and sinful generation,
of him also shall the son of man be ashamed
when he cometh in the glory of his Father
with the Holy angels."
In other words, it is the angels
who respond to his name and word.
Do everything in the name of Jesus.
Before you go to bed, make sure that you remember to say;
I am going to bed now in the name of Jesus.
Also, when you say it, don't say it quietly
say it loudly and boldly
then your angels will lie on for action.
One thing I will like you to remember
is to be bold as you speak.
Courage is needed in this kingdom.
You invoke the name of Jesus
to compel the dispatch of angels.
Friend, the angels are there for you
and the keys to let them go have been given to you.
After you have acquired this knowledge,
then you build up your confidence with God.
You pray them in,
command them to act and summon the coming
with the name of Jesus.
"Thinkest to thou that I cannot now pray to my Father
and he shall presently give me more
than 12 legions of angels?" Matthew 26: 53.
The Bible records a total of 11 attempts
to kill Jesus Christ
yet Jesus always escaped without a scratch.
None of his bones were broken and from the above verse,
we see the mystery.
Jesus prayed to the Father
and he went through them and went his way.
We have access to whatever Jesus had access to
because he said before he left;
"Then said Jesus to them again,
peace be unto you.
As my father hath sent me,
even so send I you." John 20: 21.
Jesus revealed how he escaped the plans of the evil one.
You also have the power to call on the name of Jesus.
It is through him we live,
so call his name every time that you need sustenance.
You are a child of God.
His security officers are also yours.
The president's secret agents
also protect members of his family.
You are the son and daughter of the King of Kings.
You are also under the coverage of the most high.
The soldiers of God are for you also, be encouraged.
This is a major key for releasing the angels
to work in your favor.
The reason why it's sometimes seems that the angels
are not available to you despite everything,
is that there is no order from you.
It is not enough to bring them down,
you have to activate them with commands.
God said: concerning the work of my hands,
command ye me." Isaiah 54: 11.
We command the corners of God
to act in accordance with our wishes.
A perfect example of this can be found in Elijah's story
when he prayed that his enemy
should be defeated with blindness.
And when they came down to him, Elijah prayed unto the Lord
and said; "smite this people,
I pray thee with blindness and he smote them with blindness
according to the word of Elijah." 2 Kings 6: 18.
The action was according to the word Elijah spoke.
If the words we speak are seeds,
it means the angels harvest our words
by bringing them to pass.
Your tongue is the key that turns them on.
Anything you say is what they do.
Remember God warned Moses.
Exodus 23: 20 - 22;
"Behold, I am sending an angel before you to protect you
along the way and to bring you to the place I have prepared.
Pay attention to him and listen to his voice.
Do not defy him
for he will not forgive rebellion,
since my name is in him.
But if you will listen carefully to his voice
and do everything I say,
I will be an enemy to your enemies
and a foe to your foes."
We are warned again in the Bible in Ecclesiastes 5: 6.
"Suffer not thy mouth to cause thy flesh to sin.
Neither say thou before the angel
that it was an error
wherefore should God be angry at thy voice
and destroy the work of thine hands."
This is a very powerful clause in the ministry of angels.
Words are very powerful in this kingdom.
They are not a waste.
I pray that we all take more note of it
In giving orders, speak life all the time.
Speak life to your kids also.
Refrain from saying things you do not desire in your home.
Say only what God has said about you.
This is the day the Lord has made
and I will rejoice and be glad in it.
And the angels go forward to enforce this order
as you say every day.
A look at the lives of great men in the Bible
reveals that they all enjoyed angelic companionship.
For example, an angel appeared to Moses and spoke to him.
An angel appeared to Gideon and said
he had come to finish the battle for him.
Abraham also met an angel
who paved the way for him to realize his destiny.
Lot was led out of Sodom by an angel,
shortly before the city was destroyed.
Daniel excelled in strength
and used the wisdom of the angels
because he had such sweet fellowship with them.
God has said;
"for I am the Lord, I change not.
Therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed." Malachi 3: 6.
It follows that what he did yesterday,
he is doing today too.
And this last days there is much to do.
Angels are an essential and relevant component
of God's package for the redeemed.
The anointing cannot replace the ministries of the angels.
Jesus Christ was born of the Holy spirit
and he had the anointing of the Holy spirit, without measure
but he needed the ministries of angels.
I am pleased to let you know that Jesus believed in angels
and enjoyed their ministry,
even as the son of the most high God.
He knew no sin but he needed the services of angels,
even before his birth.
An angel announced his coming.
"And the angel said unto her:
fear not Mary, for thou hast found favor with God
and behold, thou shall conceive in thy womb and bring forth
a son and shall call his name Jesus."
Luke 1: 30 and 31.
When he was born, a mighty host of angels
came amongst the shepherds and declared his arrival.
Luke 2: 8 - 14.
"And there were in the same country
shepherds abiding in the field,
keeping watch over their flock by night.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them
and the glory of the Lord shone around about them
and they were so afraid.
And the angel said unto them: fear not,
for behold I bring you good tidings of great joy
which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David,
a savior, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you:
ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes
lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel,
a multitude of the heavenly host praising God
and saying: glory to God in the highest and on earth,
peace, goodwill toward men."
One of the most pronounced events at the resurrection
was the angelic operation that rolled away the stone.
"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." Matthew 28: 2.
this stone was permanently placed there by the enemies.
I cannot say what kind of equipment was used
to place the stone there
but an angel came and rolled it away.
Two angels were later seen at the head and foot
where Jesus was laid, symbolizing the two cherubims
that would be put around the mercy seats.
John 20: 12;
"and see if two angels in white sitting,
the one at the head and the other at the feet
where the body of Jesus had lain."
At Ascension, the angels were again present
comforting the men and declaring
that Jesus shall come back again
the same way he was taken up.
Acts 1: 10 and 11;
"And while they looked steadfastly
toward heaven as he went up,
behold, two men stood by them in white apparel,
which also said:
ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven?
This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven
shall so come in like manner
as ye have seen him go in heaven."
I want you to please understand this.
Jesus was sent after the order of Moses,
for Moses truly said unto the fathers:
"a prophet shall the Lord your God raise up onto you
of your brethren, like onto me.
Him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever
he shall say onto you." Acts 3: 22.
Moses was prophesying in those days of the coming of Jesus.
So Jesus came after the order of Moses
and we have come after the order of Jesus.
Therefore, if Moses' ministry had angels in it
and Jesus' ministry employed angels at all it's phases,
then we are to be ministered to by angels as well.
God said to Moses;
"behold I send an angel before thee
to keep thee in the way and to bring thee
into the place which I have prepared." Exodus 23: 20.
There are things prepared for us in this generation also
but we do not have any hope of getting there
without acknowledging the ministry of angels.
They are the heavenly powers that God has given us
to realize his plan and purpose for our lives.
God has prepared his manifold wisdom for the last days
and we will walk in it.
They cannot afford to stay on the ground
or stranded at this time of year,
when the church has taken off for a flight.
The Lord has said through the mouth of the prophet;
"my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
Because thou hast rejected knowledge,
I will also reject thee
that thou shall be no priest to me.
Seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God,
I will also forget the children." Hosea 4: 6.
When you are born again, the word of God says
that is given to you to know.
Confess the following words aloud to yourself;
I am a disciple of Christ.
It is given me by God, to know the mystery
of the kingdom of heaven.
I am a disciple of Christ.
He has given me the gift of supernatural insight
to unravel heavenly mysteries.
So from now on, no secret will be too heavy
for me to absorb it.
