CHRISTIAN SINGLES DATING
GUIDE: WORKING WITH ANGELS
MINISTERING ANGELS
There are four different works of these ministering
angels. The first is what I call education. These
ministering are in charge of teaching us how to handle
this life. If you are businessman they will teach you how
to do business. If you are in the ministry they will teach
you how to minister the way God wants you to. And the Holy
Spirit is our ultimate teacher. But some of those things
the Holy Spirit have instructed the angels to educate us
and help us to function in those things.
Look at Genesis you see angels teaching Jacob how to
prosper. Jacob was actually struggling in his work. He was
being cheated ten times. His salary was changed by Laban.
And it looks like there is no way he could prosper in that
situation. And God taught Jacob what to do. In Genesis 30
we see Jacob doing a very strange thing. We realize that
we can be educated in this life. We receive an education
in the natural world. We receive spiritual education
through Bible College. But there is something that we need
to be personally trained in. God may have a special skill
in your life and the angels may be giving you a special
instruction in some way. I was reading in one article
about how this professional golfer used to play golf in a
certain way and then he reached his maximum potential. One
day in a dream he saw that he should hold the golf club
differently. And so when he woke up and started playing
golf professionally, he started holding the golf club in
the way he saw in the dream. And suddenly he began to do
things that he couldn't do before. I believe that in such
occasion these are the little skills that the angels
sometimes are in charge to teach us. The schools don't
teach us and the angels teach us. The main teacher is the
Holy Spirit. Even the angels teaching are through the
permission of the Holy Spirit. When you were little babies
you not only have your father and mother you have your
guardian angel. Just because we grow up doesn't mean that
we lost our guardian angel. They are still teaching us a
lot of things.
Jacob in Genesis 30 was not prospering. He was working
very hard but he was not prospering because he was under
Laban who was cheating him all the time. And he did a very
strange thing. No human being taught him that. Look at
Genesis 30: 37-39 Jacob took for himself rods of green
poplar and of the almond and chestnut trees, and peeled
white stripes in them, and exposed the white which was in
the rods. And the rods which he had peeled, he set before
the flock in the watering troughs where the flocks came to
drink, so that they should conceive when they came to
drink. So the flocks conceived before the rods, and the
flocks brought forth striped, speckled and spotted.
