Let the Cheering Begin!

!

"Pumpkins are showing up everywhere!

 

"Christians should never fail to sense the operation of angelic glory. It forever eclipses the world of demonic powers, as the sun does a candle's light."

Billy Graham, 1918-2018

Billy Graham wrote about God's angels watching the drama of this age in his book Unto The Hills. The angels have witnessed all the ages, and they are interested spectators.

I like these words he shared: "We know they are watching, but in the heat of the battle, I have thought how wonderful it would be if we could hear them cheering."

Love these yellow and orange Mums!

What would it be like if we heard angel's cheering? Just the thought brings tears to my eyes. What a phenomenon that would be! Talk about a sign from God!

As I ponder this thought, one way I can "hear" the angels cheering is reciting scripture: "Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?" Hebrews 1:14 And, "For He will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways." Psalm 91:11 They are serving me and guarding me.  That makes me cheer!

 "The angels are the dispensers and administrators of the divine beneficence toward us; they regard our ways, and exercise a constant solicitude that no evil befall us."

John Calvin, 1509-1564

A lovely scene at a farm.

Another way is to sing this simple melody: "All day, all night, Angels watching over me, my Lord." That certainly brings them close!

  

"If God were to open our spiritual eyes, we would see 'horses and chariots of fire' (2 Kings 6:17) surrounding the servants of the Lord, for we are encircled by 'Thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly' (Hebrew 12:22) sent to protect His royal seed."

 

"Angels guard you when you walk with Me. What better way could you choose?"

Frances J. Roberts

 

Sam's favorite bucket!

"Loyalty to their Lord leads angels to take a deep interest in the children of His love . . . What an amazing level of dignity God's chosen enjoy when we consider that the radiant attendants of heaven have become our willing servants! To what level of communion have we been elevated when we realize we abide with spotless heavenly beings!  Charles Spurgeon

Yes, we all need our cheer leaders. I know I do! Those folks who stand by you when the going gets rough, encouraging you on and letting you know you're not alone.

 

One day I'll see heaven's angels, and I can ask when they cheered for me. Unto then, I have a few angels  here on earth that I can turn to who always cheer my heart!

And happy fall days to you!
