What Jesus Did! 'The Angels Attend' — Matthew 4:11

Have you ever wondered if there was something, or someone, there? You know, after a major decision that placed you under ridicule and an attack for choosing what was ethical, right, moral, or true. That clear good night's sleep, that sense of peaceful wellbeing, and that sense of God's care and presence are not imagined. While some have made angels a preoccupation or even a replacement for the worship of God, Christians need to know that angels are God's servants sent to serve his faithful believers! They are the great means of heavenly comfort and support after major ordeals. They are the words of encouragement given to us by the right person at just the right time. They are even in attendance when we worship together as God's people. But the point of angels is not angels per se; the point of angels is the love of God for us, his children. Let's thank him that he has not left us alone to fight the battles of faith or to find comfort after the battle has passed. And let's join the angels that surround God's throne in heaven with praise for his grace, power, majesty, and faithfulness.
