ONE FINAL REQUEST OF JESUS !

ONE FINAL REQUEST ! If you've never associated angels with the day of Pentecost, let me remind you that in the beginning, God created an entire host of angels to help mankind fulfill their mission of the filling earth with the true child of God having the Garden of Eden in them. Those angels were part of THE BLESSING. But when sin turned THE BLESSING into the curse, they were expelled from Earth's atmosphere. God The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit: neither angels, will come against mankind's will to choose. They had to be recalled to heaven because Satan and the fallen angels who followed him had taken over the Earth. From then on, angels came to earth only on special assignments. God sent them at times to minister to His people, but only on a limited basis. That's why the angels Jacob saw in his dream had to go back and forth from heaven on a special ladder. They didn't have free access to the earth. A way had to be made for them to come. That's also why the angel who came to deliver a message to the prophet Daniel had to fight for 21 days (and eventually get help from Michael, the archangel, to break through the demonic forces blocking his way. During that three week battle, Daniel fasted, and prayed and waited. He didn't have the name of Jesus to use like you or I do. He couldn't overcome the devil with the blood of the Lamb and the Word of his testimony. He just continued praying until the angel brought his answer to him. This is why, many precious saints continue to pray because they do not believe that God heard them the first time they prayed. The Scriptures remind us that only the prayer of faith shall be heard ! (1 John 5:14-15). On the day of Pentecost, however, the whole situation changed. The demonic spirits that formerly dominating Earth's atmosphere has been defeated and put under the feet of Jesus. Sin had been dealt with. There were born-again men and women on the earth who, through faith in Jesus, had inherited THE BLESSING. So when Jesus asked God to activate the power of THE BLESSING by sending the Holy Spirit, the multitude of angels who had been waiting for 4000 years to go to work, were released to do their job at last. They went out of heaven and flooded the earth's atmosphere. They are still here today to help you and me, standing ready to serve us as ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation. "If that's true, then why haven't they been doing more for me ?" Angels are not free agents. They are divinely commissioned to respond to THE WORD of God. As (Psalms 103) says, they "do his commandments, harkening unto the voice of his WORD" (verse 20). Either you have not been conducting yourself properly in their presence, or you are not giving them anything to work with. If you are saying things contrary to THE BLESSING and at odds with THE WORD of God, because of something that you were taught in what is being called church, your angels just stand there, in active on your behalf. They won't act on those unbelieving words. The last angel who acted on something other than THE WORD of God was Satan, and they aren't about to follow in his footsteps. They know where he will end up, and they are not on his side. When a believer says things like, "I feel terrible. I believe I'm getting the flu. I get it every year, and I'm in bed with it for a week." Angels cannot respond. However, Satan and his forces can ! God's WORD doesn't promise believers the flu or any parts of the curse. Angels aren't flu bringers. They probably just stretch their heads and say, "I wonder why that guy or girl is making faith confessions about getting the flu. He or she doesn't seem to enjoy it very much. But he or she keeps on declaring it over themselves, anyway." If you want your angels to spring into action, however, begin speaking THE WORD of God. Instead of talking sickness, poverty and defeat. confess THE BLESSING over yourself. Saying, "I'm BLESSED in the city. I'm BLESSED in the country. My body is BLESSED. My children are BLESSED. Everything I put my hands to prospers is BLESSED." Those are words the angels can and will go to work on. Those words will keep them busy doing good things for you. (Mark 11: 22- 23- 24)
