guardian angels???

[ready2leave]

I have heard of guardian angels but don't ever recall reading about them in the bible. Does everyone have one or only true followers.

If you have any scripture also on it, please post. :):

Heres a few verses that may help:

Take care that you do not despise one of these little ones; for, I tell you, in heaven their angels continually see the face of My Father in heaven (Matthew 18:10).

For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, so that you will not dash your foot against a stone (Psalm 91:11,12).

The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and delivers them (Psalm 34:7).

Are not all angels spirits in the divine service, sent to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation? (Hebrews 1:14).

Hope these can help....

OK

Then since part of their duty is to protect you, do you think that they are sent to Earth and wander it with you?

I have experienced times in my life when I wasn't walking daily with my Lord and would often feel a hand on my shoulder to guide me. Each time it would be after I was trying to talk to Him and I knew the hand was a touch from Him. During those times I believed it was my angel because I was not living a godly life, I feel He was protecting me and placing me where He wanted me to be, since I had asked Him for help.

This question is answered by Billy Graham


Q: Does each person have a guardian angel that watches over them? I'd like to think so, but if we do have a special angel protecting us, then why do we still have accidents and things like that? — Z.G.


A: Dear Z.G.,
Whenever I'm asked why bad things happen to us, I have to admit that I don't have a full answer to that question. Evil is real, and none of us are free from its devastation.

But the Bible does tell us that for the believer nothing happens outside God's control—and yes, if we know Christ, His angels continually watch over us. The Bible says that God "will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways" (Psalm 91:11). It also teaches that the angels—although they are largely unseen—watch over us and work for our good. The Bible says, "Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?" (Hebrews 1:14).

Rather than only one angel, therefore, God surrounds us with a host of angels to protect us and go before us. Even when hard times come, Satan can never snatch us away from their protection—and some day they will escort us safely to heaven. The reality of God's angels should give us great confidence in the Bible's promises.

While the angels are real, we are not to become preoccupied with them or to worship them. Only God is worthy of our worship, and only Christ saves us. Trust Him alone as your Savior, for "Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved" (Acts 4:12).
