Our reading today is Psalm 91:11.
“For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.”
This verse opens a window into one of the most fascinating truths of Scripture. God is not only watching over us Himself; He also appoints His angels to guard us. The psalmist says that God will command His angels. That word, “command,” is strong. It reminds us that the angels don’t act on their own; they respond to God’s orders. They move at His word, not ours.
“Do we really have guardian angels?” This verse seems to say yes. Hebrews 1:14 confirms it: “Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?” Angels are sent for a purpose—to serve, to guard, and to help God’s children.
What comfort this brings! We are not left to walk through life alone. The unseen realm is alive with God’s messengers, guarding us in ways we may never know. Certainly, we cannot point to the exact when or the exact where that angels guarded for us. But it is comforting to know that God has sent them to protect us.
