Did you know that you can command angels to help you and minister to you? It's true! The Bible says that angels are assigned the task of helping you and ministering to you.

To understand how this works, first know what the Bible says about angels. Here are a few key passages:

Psalm 91:11-12 says that God gives His angels charge over you, to keep you and protect you. This Scripture passage says:

For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.”

So angels are assigned to help you. We see this again in Psalm 104:4, which says of God:

Who makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flame of fire.”

So we know from that verse that His angels are spirits and ministers. We also know that angels heed the voice of God's Word. Psalm 103:20 says:

Bless the Lord, you His angels, who excel in strength, who do His word, heeding the voice of His word.”

So, to recap: God has assigned angels to you. Their job is to keep you in all your ways and protect you. They literally bear you up in their hands. They are ministers, ministering to you, and they heed the voice of God's Word.

To activate the ministry of angels and even command angels in your life, we also have to understand three things:

1. That angels heed the voice of God's Word. This means that they move and work in response to God's Word.

2. We ALSO have to understand that God's Word is not hidden from us. It's not something we have to wonder about. We have God's Word in written format. It's called the Bible, and it's the inerrant, infallible Word of God.

3. Finally, we have to understand that God's Word in your mouth is just as powerful as God's Word in God's mouth.

God's Word is a living thing. Jesus said, “The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). And because God's Word is a living thing, it carries the same power whether it comes out of God's mouth or whether it's repeated out of your mouth.

When we speak God's Word–when we use God's Word as the weapon that it is (Ephesians 6:17)–we can command angels, because they heed the voice of God's Word.

That's why I charge angels to help me–because God's Word says they should (Psalm 91). That's why I charge angels to keep me and my family safe–because God's Word says we have a right to safety. And that's why it's of UTMOST importance to hide God's Word in your heart, that we might not sin against Him (Psalm 119:11).

If you don't know what God's Word says, then you can't command angels to carry out God's commands based on that Word. But if you have God's Word in your heart, then:

1) you won't sin against the Lord, and

2) you'll have God's own vocabulary already in your heart so you can put those angels to work on your behalf.

That's why I never hesitate to command angels to help me …

… because I have God's Word in my heart; and whether I'm quoting God's Word verbatim or putting His Word into a sentence, I am still speaking God's own commands to those angels. Also, that's why those angels respond: because they heed the voice of God's Word.

I've personally seen God send angels to help me in soooo many ways.

It would be impossible to describe them all. But here are a few examples:

Example 1:

I used to play different instruments in my former church's orchestra (sometimes viola, sometimes percussion, sometimes a mallet instrument). Whenever I would go to play, I'd often be nervous because I didn't want to mess things up! So I would always ask the Lord to send angels to help me play, and to actually play through me.

Whenever I prayed that prayer, I could always sense the answer. When I went to play, I could actually feel that my hands were being guided by the unseen hands of God's angels … and the music worked out well every time!

Example 2:

Almost every day, I speak out a verbal command to the angels to perform God's will in my life. This is what I say when I command angels to work out God's will:

“Angels of God, I charge you in Jesus' name to watch over my husband and I, our family and loved ones, and the houses, cars, tenants, pets, and items God has blessed us with. Keep us safe from all harm, danger, mal-intent, and loss. Minister to us the blessings from the Lord in Jesus' name, and do everything through us and for us today that needs to be done, according to Father's will, in Jesus' name.”

I said I do this “almost every day” because some days I forget. But you know what? Every day I remember, I can tell a noticeable difference in how my day goes and how much heavenly assistance I sense in my life.

And every day I forget, I notice later that I didn't sense anywhere near the same level of assistance.

Example 3:

Some days, the Lord wakes me up earlier than usual and I can sense Him calling me to go into my study and pray. Sometimes, though, when this happens, I feel so tired that–although my spirit wants to obey–my body just does NOT want to obey at all.

So I lay there, trying to work up the courage to get up. Then I get all convicted because I'm disobeying the Lord by not obeying right away.

And you know what I've found helps me during those times? To say: “Angels, strengthen me and help me get up, in Jesus' name!”

Whenever I say that, after a moment or two, I always feel a surge of strength flow into my body. Then, I am able to get up and go spend time with the Lord.

So how do you activate angels on your behalf?

You command angels by speaking God's Word out over yourself and your situation. Angels heed the voice of God's Word. Psalm 103:20 says:

Bless the Lord, you His angels, who excel in strength, who do His word, heeding the voice of His word.”

I also believe, based on other Scripture verses and my personal experience practicing those verses, that angels will answer commands that are supported by God's Word–even if they aren't necessarily quotes from God's Word.

Example #3 above is one such example. I know it's God's will for angels to minister to me because Psalm 104:4 says of God:

“Who makes His angels spirits, His ministers a flame of fire.”

So His angels are assigned to minister. They also strengthened Jesus in the wilderness and in Gethsemane. Therefore, we know from the Bible that it's Father's will for angels to strengthen us. That's why I don't hesitate to command the angels both using quotes from God's Word and using other commands that simply reflect God's Word.

And to clarify: Yes, I do believe you can talk to the angels assigned to you.

We have no problem talking to demons, which are fallen angels. We tell them to leave in the name of Jesus, and they have to obey that name of Jesus. If we can talk to evil, fallen angels with our voices, why shouldn't we be able to talk to God's holy angels which He has sent and assigned to us, to help us?

Some people may disagree with me. That's okay if they do. But, may I point out from the Bible:

Lot talked to the angels who came to rescue him and his family from Sodom.

Mary talked to the angel Gabriel, who brought her the news of her impending pregnancy.

Zechariah talked to Gabriel when he brought the news of John the Baptist's impending birth.

And, angels talked directly to people over and over again throughout the pages of Scripture.

Does it really make sense to say that we cannot talk with the angels God sends us?

Does it make sense to say those people can talk with the angels they could see, but we cannot talk with the angels we cannot see–even though we know they are here?

Does it really make sense to say that angels are allowed to talk to people, but we are not allowed to speak back to them in conversation–even though the Bible characters did?

Does it really make sense, again, to know that we can speak to fallen, evil angels–but still to say we cannot speak to holy angels that surround us?

I think not. Of course we should NEVER worship angels. But, I think that the concept of talking with our guardian angels seems foreign because the enemy has stolen the truth of co-laboring with angels from God's people.

Well, I aim to take it back. What about you? What will you do?

Have you activated the angels on your behalf yet? If not, get busy doing so today! Don't miss out on the ministry of angels in your life!
