you all night. They were no match for me.” The Christian knew they were angels. Yes, there is an unseen host constantly watching over the believer. What a blessed assurance it is for us to realize that God will give His angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. We also acknowledge that there are wicked, fallen angels, a demonic force, constantly employed by satan to bring spiritual ruin to man. Don’t pass this subject off lightly. Not only was demon possession real during the Lord’s day, but there are clear indications of it today. When it comes to this word “De liverance,” we need to understand the meaning. It may suggest keeping us out of trouble, saving us from an accident, or protecting us in some way. In the case of Peter’s deliver ance from prison, it meant his restoration to life of active service. John the Baptist’s deliverance from prison, however, meant his being ushered immediately into the pres ence of the Lord. Frankly, his deliv erance was more blessed than that THE BIOLA HOUR O TH ER STATES
about them that fear him and deliv e red him.” There is a blessed doc trinal study in the Bible concerning angels. We live in a very materialis tic age. Who believes in angels? This seems so very remote to our lives. Have you ever seen an angel? Are we aware of the fact that the born-again Christian is given an gels to watch over and to protect him? This was made apparent to me one rainy night long ago when I had a blowout while traveling at a high speed on one of our Los Angeles Freeways. So seldom we stop to thank God for such deliverances. While angels may be unseen by the human eye they are very real. An itinerant preacher, who had to travel on horseback in order to reach sev eral rural churches which he pas- tored, spent the night under the stars. As far as he knew there was no one around but he had no fear for he was assured that the Lord would take care of him. He believed God provided angels for the care of His children. On his person he carried money to be used to help those in special need. Laying a fire, he placed his blanket and bedroll on a smooth spot of ground and, confident of God’s care, went to sleep. Bright and early the next day he was on his way. Several years later, he was called to the bedside of an unsaved man, who wanted peace with God. This dying man said, “I must con fess the evil intent of my heart. One time I even resorted to robbing, stealing from those who travelled un protected along a back trail road. You came along, stopped your horse, made a fire and bedded down for the night. I saw the purse you were carrying and decided to kill you and to steal your money.” The minister injected, “Yes, I remember the night. What kept you from it?” Rather surprised, the dying man re sponded, “Why, don’t you know? It was because of those two men who came up and stood guard over you while you slept. They didn’t leave
