Supernatural Help by the Spoken Word

The first chapter of Hebrews describes two supernatural ministries that are available to us today: the ministry of Jesus and the ministry of angels. Jesus' ministry is much greater, but the angels play an important part in your life.

Let's take a look at the ministry of angels:

To which of the angels said he at any time, Sit on my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool?

Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?

Hebrews 1:13,14

In this last verse, God was defining the role of the angels. They are ministering spirits. We are the heirs of salvation.

Continue now into chapter 2, verse 1: Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.

Don't let this truth slip from you. The angels are ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for you.

For if the word spoken by angels was stedfast, and every transgression and disobedience received just recompense of reward; how shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation (vv. 2,3).

The word salvation means "deliverance, preservation, healing, and soundness." This verse refers to the deliverance that comes by the angels.

We shouldn't let it slip that the angels are ministering spirits sent to minister for us. How are we going to escape the things the Devil has set for us if we neglect the deliverance that comes by the angels? They are here to minister for us.

For instance, several years ago in Dallas, Texas, I was exiting off the freeway when I came upon a car that had stopped and blocked the way I was to turn, so I stopped. Another car, coming off the freeway, hit the back of my car. The gas tank burst and gasoline went everywhere, but there was no fire.

When my car was hit, I felt as though pillows were all around me. The angels were surrounding me as in Psalm 91:11: He has given His angels charge over me to keep me in all my ways. Verse 7 says, A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

Begin to believe and confess this daily. Apply this promise from the Word of God to your situation daily.

Notice what the angel said to John in Revelation 22:8,9: I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things. Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant....

This angel said to John, I am thy fellowservant. The literal Greek says, "The fellow slave of yours I am." He said, "Don't worship me. I'm your servant."

. . .I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book.

The angels are here to serve us and bring us deliverance in time of danger.
