One day on my walk I was pondering angels. I know that God has angels and they do his work, but I’ve never quite understood why some people pray to angels. I believe that angels are wonderful, strong helpers of God and that they come to the aid of His people. But they are created beings, they are not God. So I pray to God through Jesus Christ, who save my soul from eternal death.
I was considering these things one day. Should I pray to angels? Is that wrong? Why would I pray to a created being and not the Creator? I asked God to help me to understand.
The next day, following the path down toward the lake, I saw something yellow up ahead. I am in the habit of investigating things that catch my eye, so I bent over and picked it up. It was a printed piece of card stock and the first three sentences explained how angels work in my life. It said that angels are moved by the word of God, so when I speak the word of God, His angels respond.
At home, I found this verse: Bless the Lord, you His angels, who excel in strength, who do His word, heeding the voice of His word. Psalm 130:20 So I will speak and declare His word. I will always pray to God, He answers me.
The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple. Psalm 119:130
