The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them. —Psalm 34:7
God is present with us through the Holy Spirit and through his protecting angels. We don’t always see him, but we can know he is with us! He has promised never to leave us or forsake us (Hebrews 13:5-6). He knows us inside and out and chooses to be with us in every situation (Psalm 139:1-23). Not only is our heavenly Father present with us, the angel of the Lord, who destroyed many enemies of God’s people in ancient times is now fighting to win the spiritual battles raging around you and me. God’s angels are servants sent to bless us (Hebrews 1:13-14). Along with the Holy Spirit, they help us overcome the evil one, empowering us through our struggles and past those struggles (Ephesians 3:14-21). Through their help, our Lord will bring us his deliverance! We know that the ” angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.”
