Do Angels Exist?
Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1:14)
Have you ever wondered if angels exist? Have you had an encounter with someone and wondered if that person was actually an angel? Because this issue is extremely subjective and experiential, many of us don’t talk about it. However, the Bible is not silent when it comes to addressing angels. The Word of God makes it very clear that angels do exist. Not only do they exist, but they are here to help us and serve us as followers of Christ.
Hebrews 1:14 makes this very clear. Angels are here to serve those who will inherit salvation. In other words, they are our spiritual backup. Whether you think you have had an encounter with an angel or not, the Bible tells us that if we are following Jesus, the angels of the Lord have been sent to help us and protect us.
When thinking about angels, I encourage you to discover what God’s Word says about them. We should be careful not to rely solely on our own experiences. Instead, our lives should be guided by Scripture, first and foremost. If your experience contradicts the Word of God, it is not the Word of God that needs to be rearranged and reinterpreted to fit your experience. Instead, your experience must be viewed through a different lens to line up with Scripture.
I encourage you to take the time to read some of the biblical accounts of angels in order to get more clarity and understanding on the topic. You can read the story of Daniel, as well as the birth, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus to get a better picture of how the Bible describes angels and their involvement on earth. When you are reading, pray and ask the Lord to give you clarity and discernment as you seek to gain understanding about angels. I know He will honor your request.

I really need clarity about angels.
I had a message from my deceased angel granddaughter when I was suffering greatly. She told me it wasn't my time to join her yet and that I would come through this time because I had more to do on earth.
Angels are very real and have existed in my life that I can recall since my mother's death. They come in all forms and speak me through God. Sitting still to receive a message or the direction of God is not difficult even if you don't understand or have clarity
