Guardian Angels

God has appointed a guardian angel to every follower of Christ. “The angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.” Speaking of those who believe in Him, Jesus said, “In heaven their angels always see the face of My Father.” (Psalm 34:7; Matthew 18:10.) God’s people are exposed to the unsleeping hatred of the prince of darkness, but God assures them that the angels never stop guarding them. God gives them this assurance because they will have to face mighty agencies of evil—agencies that are numerous, determined, and untiring. GrH_a 7.1
