We know from the scriptures that God has commanded his angels to keep (protect) us from harm.
Psa 91:11 For he (God) shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
Does that mean God,s angels will protect us no matter what we say and do?
The Lord God tells the nation of Israel not to “PROVOKE” the angel he sent to protect them and to bring them into the promised land he had already given them.
Exo 23:20 Behold, I SEND AN ANGEL BEFORE THEE, TO KEEP THEE IN THE WAY, AND TO BRING THEE INTO THE PLACE WHICH I HAVE PREPARED.
Exo 23:21 Beware of him, and OBEY HIS VOICE, PROVOKE HIM NOT; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.
Angels have been given us to lead, guide, minister to, and protect us from harm. As long as we do not “provoke” them they will do their job. If we do provoke them we will not be secure and be open for great harm!
Exo 23:22 But IF THOU SHALT INDEED OBEY HIS VOICE, and do all that I speak; then I WILL BE AN ENEMY UNTO THINE ENEMIES, AND AN ADVERSARY UNTO THINE ADVERSARIES.
Exo 23:23 For MINE ANGEL SHALL GO BEFORE THEE, AND BRING THEE IN UNTO THE AMORITES, AND THE HITTITES, AND THE PERIZZITES, AND THE CANAANITES, THE HIVITES, AND THE JEBUSITES: AND I WILL CUT THEM OFF.
God assigned an angel to make sure the nation of Israel made it to the promised land, but they provoked the angel of the Lord so that thousands of them died in the wilderness. We have heard it said, “whatever does not kill you makes you stronger” That is not really true. Israel had trouble in the wilderness, and it literally killed them.
In the Book of Numbers, God said......
Num 14:28 Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the LORD, AS YE HAVE SPOKEN IN MINE EARS, SO WILL I DO TO YOU:
Num 14:29 Your carcasses shall fall in this wilderness; and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward,
Instead of “BELIEVING” what God had said to them they spoke out of their mouth contrary to God,s word and provoked his angel! The Lord told them he was going to give them what they say.
The people of God “murmured”, and complained to Moses that they were going to die in the wilderness!
Exo_14:11 And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast THOU TAKEN US AWAY TO DIE IN THE WILDERNESS? wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?
Exo_14:12 Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, THAN THAT WE SHOULD DIE IN THE WILDERNESS.
Num_14:35 I the LORD have said, I will surely do it unto all this evil congregation, that are gathered together against me: IN THIS WILDERNESS THEY SHALL BE CONSUMED, AND THERE THEY SHALL DIE.
Num_21:5 And THE PEOPLE SPAKE AGAINST GOD, and against Moses, Wherefore have YE BROUGHT US UP OUT OF EGYPT TO DIE IN THE WILDERNESS? for there is no bread, neither is there any water; and our soul loatheth this light bread.
Angels are not human and are not required to forgive our sins as the Lord had told Israel.
Exo 23:21 Beware of him, and OBEY HIS VOICE, PROVOKE HIM NOT; for HE WILL NOT PARDON YOUR TRANSGRESSIONS: for my name is in him.
Anytime we speak words contrary to the promises of God it will provoke our angels not to cause us harm, but by stopping their purpose of protecting God,s children from harm!
I can not number the many times I have experienced supernatural deliverance by angels in my life. I did not see them, but I knew they were there because there was no other way I could have escaped from harm.
Heb 1:13 And God has never said this to any of his angels: “Take your seat next to me at my right hand until I force your whispering enemies to be a rug under your feet.”
Heb 1:14 What role then, do the angels have? THE ANGELS ARE SPIRIT MESSENGERS SENT BY GOD TO SERVE THOSE WHO ARE GOING TO BE SAVED. (TPT)
Angels are constantly listening to what we say out of our mouths.
