Angels, Allies or Adversaries, and You - Part 1 2023-02-05

In this Sabbath's message / study, I want to start a series on angelic allies and enemies. With all the enemy activity surrounding us and even above us, we are seeing, there is no help from our government, military, even medicine (all of whom take oaths to protect and or do no harm). There seems to be either a paralysis of fear, and or a traitorous cooperation with avowed enemies. But what man can do, is neither to be trusted or feared, by GOD's Covenant people. HE has promised help, either by direct intervention, or HIS angels, and there be more that are for us than against us. . . . if we are for HIM.

I wanted to share things to encourage you / us, with abundant Inspiration to that end, and in part 1. we will mainly / historically deal with the time of the war in Heaven through to the Exodus, with some present and absolute end, promises. HE is the same, yesterday, today and forever, and so are His and our allies. I hope you can join us.

Theme Passages: { RH July 8, 1884} “The guardian angels whom Jacob saw in vision ascending and descending that ladder of shining brightness, are with us, recording our work, and bringing us divine strength and power to be combined with human effort. These angels weep over the coldness, the indolence, and want of love for souls, that exists among ministers who are laboring in their own strength.”

{PP 568} Those who in the way of duty are brought into trial may be sure that God will preserve them; … The very ones whom God purposes to use as His instruments for a special work, Satan employs his utmost power to lead astray. He attacks us at our weak points, working through defects in the character to gain control of the whole man; … But none need be overcome. Man is not left alone to conquer the power of evil by his own feeble efforts. Help is at hand and will be given to every soul who really desires it. Angels of God, that ascend and descend the ladder which Jacob saw in vision, will help every soul who will, to climb even to the highest heaven.”

Isaiah 58:12-14 “And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach,.. 13 If you turn away your foot from the Sabbath,.. My holy day; and call the Sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honorable;.. not doing your own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking your own words: 14 Then shall you delight yourself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.”
