angels

I WAS extremely curious about angels.
Not the TV series, Angel or fictional angels.
The recent addition of Castiel in Supernatural had no part in this too!
But real spiritual angels.

Angels are spiritual beings created by God to serve Him, though created higher than man. Some, the good angels, have remained obedient to Him and carry out His will, while others, fallen angels, disobeyed, fell from their holy position, and now stand in active opposition to the work and plan of God.

So curious that I google-d and read up a lot on them. (When I’m curious about some particular topic, I read massively on them. Just don’t ask why!)
Turned to the bible and tried to find meaning or importance or angels.
And this got me all frustrated because the bible doesn’t mention much about them and on the internet, there are tons about people saying angels are real and that each of us has a guardian angel and the what’s not.

“Does everyone have a guardian angel?” While no passage specifically states that every person has a guardian angel, the Bible does teach that angels do guard or protect as Psalm 91:11 declares.

Finally, I decided to talk to a friend about it.
She was amused at my curiousity with angels and told me, “Why would you bother? Angels are messengers of God while you are a child of God.” It’s like putting a maid in the middle of a relationship with father and child.

Revelation 22:8-9 And I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9 And he said to me, “Do not do that; I am a fellow servant of yours and of your brethren the prophets and of those who heed the words of this book; worship God.”

And by coincidence or not, while I was talking to the same friend (Margaret), I stumbled upon another online article warning about Angel Worship or fascination. No, I’m not so sucked into it, to that extent that I worship an angel. I felt some spiritual emptiness and angels being God’s messenger, I just wanted to fill that emptiness and feel like I do matter to Him. Which really brings me to shame, I mean, what happened to my faith.

The reason lies in Satan’s deception and in the vacuum of man’s heart as he seeks answers apart from God and His revelation of Himself and His plan of salvation as it is revealed in the Bible. As the arch deceiver and antagonist to God, the church, and mankind as whole, Satan is the master of disguise. It is clearly his masquerade as an angel of light with his servant angels ,who also disguise themselves in one way or another, that are behind the current Angelmania in our society today.
