His angel is guarding and protecting all those whom honor GOD.
ACTS 5:19-20 (GNT)
But that night an angel of the Lord opened the prison gates, led the apostles out, and said to them, “Go and stand in the Temple, and tell the people all about this new life.”
THE ESSENCE
Even though we're usually unaware, God has an angelic detail protecting his people.
DAILY FODDER
What is one situation in your personal history when you were close to death? Were you aware of God's protective detail watching out for you? How many other times do you think you were protected even when you didn't realize that you were in danger?
PRAYER
Mighty God, commander of angels, I'm overwhelmed with gratitude when I realize how you've been looking out for me. Forgive my timidity when it comes to risk taking on your behalf. Prompt me through the Holy Spirit to speak up about this wonderful new life in Christ. I'm going to pay more attention to your leading because I know that you have my back. Amen.
