Do you know that you have an angel with you all the time? If you’re like most of us, you’ve never physically seen him, and you probably never will this side of heaven. In fact, you may be totally unaware of his existence. But he’s there nonetheless, and he has been all of your life.
Jesus said so in Matthew 18:10. Warning His disciples never to despise or be dismissive of little children, He said, “Their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.” According to that statement, every child, when they’re born, has an angel assigned to them; and though you may not be a child anymore, you didn’t lose your angel just because you grew up.
You also didn’t lose your angel if you spent some years like I did, running from God and living in sin. On the contrary! Your angel probably worked extremely hard during those years. He had to keep you from getting killed doing something stupid, so you could stay alive long enough to get born again.
Now that you are born again, your angel’s assignment is to help you fulfill the call of God on your life. When necessary, he can call in additional assistance. So, as your ministry or business grows and there’s more to be done, you’re likely to have at your disposal more angelic help.
There’s certainly plenty of it available. According to the Scriptures, angels number in the trillions and they are “all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation” (Hebrews 1:14).
I remember years ago, when I was first becoming aware of this, I was preaching in a small church in Beaumont, Texas. One of the men who came to the meetings was from a denominational background, and during the first few services he sat right on the front row, just eating up the Word of Faith. Then, he abruptly stopped coming.
