Thoughts
The word “angel” comes from the Greek word aggelos, which means “messenger.” Angels are God’s messengers. Angels praise, worship and serve God, just like we do. We are not to worship Angels. Angels are created by God, and are used by God for many different purposes – e.g. to deliver messages from God to us, guide us, protect us, minister to us, strengthen us, encourage us, deliver us, etc. There are armies of angels serving God, and doing God’s will.
Angels are ministering spirits of God. They may be visible or invisible. They may appear in a spectacular manner, shining in glory, dazzling light, etc; but they often also take on the appearance of men. Like us, angels were all created to be holy and to worship and serve God. There are however some angels that are “fallen”, rebelling against God, under Satan’s leadership. These fallen angels are often called demons. Satan is a fallen angel. We are encouraged to test every spirit, make sure it is from God, because not every spirit is of God.
