Angels

All the angels are spirits who serve God and are sent to help those who will receive salvation.
Hebrews 1:14 
 
Remember Abraham and Sarah?  God sent angels to tell them that they would have a son even though Abraham was 100 and Sarah was 99 (try explaining that one to the Social Security Office).  God used an angel to guard the Garden of Eden when He kicked Adam and Eve out.  God sent to keep Balaam's donkey from moving forward.  God sent an Angel to tell Mary that she would be the mother of Jesus.  God sent an Angel to Joseph to tell him to take Mary as his bride and told Joseph and Mary to get away from Herod's soldiers.  God sent a single Angel to Egypt to kill the first born of everyone who did not have their doorway marked with blood.
 
The Angels' worship God.  They only do His bidding.  They are sent to care for and help Believers.  But we have the danger of worshiping the Angels instead of God.  God created man "a little lower than the angels" yet when Christ returns for us, we will be CHILDREN of God...not Angels.  
 
Be grateful for the Angels God sends to us, and focus our worship on God not His Angels.
