“Angels With Orders”

“Angels With Orders”

Blessings folk!

Psalm 91 prophesies and foreshadows many things in the life of the coming Messiah - Jesus.

We see that the Lord is our Refuge and our Fortress.

Jesus knew this.

We continue…

Psa 91:11-12

For He will give His angels orders concerning you,
To protect you in all your ways.

On their hands they will lift you up,
So that you do not strike your foot against a stone.

The Lord watches over us.
His angels have orders from Him concerning us.
Jesus had the same.

His angels will lift us up.
They protect.

Sound familiar?

Mat 4:5-6

Then the devil took Him along into the holy city
and had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple,

and he said to Him,
“If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down; for it is written:
‘HE WILL GIVE HIS ANGELS ORDERS CONCERNING YOU’;
and
‘ON THEIR HANDS THEY WILL LIFT YOU UP,
SO THAT YOU DO NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE.’”

Yep!
The devil quoted this passage to Jesus!

Jesus knows these truths.

Jesus had angels that were ordered by God.
Consider “what happened to Jesus”.
So, did the angels “fail”?
Of course not.

Jesus was protected by God.
Believers are also.

Sometimes we incorrectly believe that if we undergo trials, tribulation or persecution that we are “outside” of the protection of God.

No.

He is our Rock.
He is our Refuge.
He is our Shield.
He is our Strength.

Fear not!

By the way, did you note the strategy of the devil?
He questioned the Word of the Lord…”if you are the Son of God”.
Same thing he did in the garden.
Same thing he does with us.
