Angel-Making Was Done

God could've called them as needed, one by one
And dismissed when each mission was over;
They never die; angel-making was done,
Ere first man was made in creation's chore.
Never mind how many the millions made;
He knew in advance each one's special task;
None was idle; no job's debt left unpaid.
Why angels? Man was yet to be, you ask?
God foreknew that sin would its entrance make,
Thinning angel ranks, and earth lost fore'er,
Lest weak-willed man could the planet retake;
When he could not, the job fell to God's Heir!
If no angel sinned, why was man needed?
God knew one-third would and so proceeded.

God made millions of angels, and they were meant to carry out the many tasks required for defeating evil and guarding righteous men. He made exactly enough, knowing in advance that sin would cost one-third of them their places in heaven, being cast down to earth. On earth they became demons, able to enter men and tempt them to be evil and go to destruction with them.

But God has enough left so that He can assign a guardian angel to each person who accepts Jesus as Lord and loves others like Jesus did. That's right; you can have your own angel to be near you at all times; his job is to protect you from harm and to help keep the fallen ones from controlling your actions for Satan.

"If you make the Most High your dwelling---even the Lord, who is my refuge---then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone." (Psalm 91:9-12)

As a 12-year-old Christian I fell 60 feet out of a tree; I felt myself being turned upright in midair and landed erect on my feet; I had sore ankles for two days. My guardian angel turned me. I have been protected from numerous such in my life. You can have a guardian angel, too, if you do not have one.
