    Angelology | The Angels Worship!

    Season 23: Angelology — Episode 13 September 9, 2026 — The Angels Worship! NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! Show Notes: In the book of Revelation, an angel shows John an amazing vision of the New Heaven, the New Earth, and the New Jerusalem. I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me, BUT he said to me, "You must not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God." Revelation 22:8-9 John was moved to worship. However, when angels appear, they do not want people to worship them. Their work is to deliver God’s message or complete the work assigned to them. The angels’ role is to point back to God, who is the One worthy of our worship. And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, saying, “Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.” Revelation 7:11-12 HEAD TO HEART The angels present a beautiful example for us to follow. The Lamb of God is worthy of our praise and worship. Let’s set aside time each day to worship Him. Song – A Thousand Hallelujahs - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR_sI9lkowA&list=RDvR_sI9lkowA&start_radio=1 Season 23: Angelology – Words of Summary Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane - Matthew 26:53 – “Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels?” Elisha – 2 Kings 6:17 - And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. Created Beings - Nehemiah 9:6 - The heavenly hosts were created: “You are the Lord, You alone. You have made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them; and you preserve all of them; and the host of heaven worships you.” His mighty ones - Psalm 103:20 - Praise the Lord, you His angels, you mighty ones who do His bidding, who obey His word! In God’s order and design, there are several distinct classifications of angels. · The Archangel named Michael – Jude 9 · Chief Princes – Daniel 10:12-13 · Ruling Angels – 1 Peter 1:12 For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. Psalm 91:11

    Angelology | Worship God Alone

    Season 23: Angelology — Episode 12 September 2, 2026 — Worship God Alone NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! Show Notes: We know that angels interpreted visions for Ezekiel, Daniel, Zechariah, and John. They stand ready as reapers and gatherers at the final judgment, surrounding Christ when He returns. Today, let’s look at the angels’ activity at all times, in every moment, and beyond: They worship! Not themselves — they refuse it every time it's offered to them. THEY WORSHIP GOD ALONE! In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and said: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!" Isaiah 6:1-3 The seraphim call out “Holy, holy, holy” around God’s throne. Scripture doesn’t tell us how many seraphim Isaiah saw. The word "glory" is used of God in his relationship to his creatures – “the whole earth is full of His glory!” The essence of deity is inscrutable, but something of his glory can be seen if God is pleased to reveal it. HEAD TO HEART - Pause now and ask ourselves this question – Whose “glory” do I most desire? Do I share the Good News that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life? The Lord alone is worthy of our worship, and the angels offer us a beautiful example. Let’s set aside time each day to worship Him.

    Angelology | Angels at the Final Judgement

    Season 23: Angelology — Episode 11 Angels at the Final Judgment NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! Show Notes Last time, we looked at angels as interpreters — messengers sent to help God's people understand visions beyond their comprehension. An angel appearing in bronze led Ezekiel through a vision of the temple. Angelic beings explained Daniel's visions of the four beasts. Today, we turn to a different role angels play — not explaining what's to come, but their presence at the final judgment. Angels will serve as: 1. Reapers gathering the harvest; 2. Trumpeters calling the elect home; and 3. A mighty company surrounding Christ Himself at His return. And He will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. – Matthew 24:31 Angels will gather the elect at Christ's return. The "four winds" represent the four points of the compass – N / S / E / W. The elect will be gathered from every place under the sky, since that is how far the Gospel of the kingdom will have been preached. Although all nations of the earth will mourn, the elect will be drawn from every tribe, tongue, and nation. We have observed angels show up exactly where God's people needed them most. Last time, they were interpreters — patient, present, willing to explain. Today, they're something different: reapers, gatherers, a mighty company surrounding Christ Himself. Put those two roles together, and you get a fuller picture of what angels are doing throughout Scripture — not background characters, but obedient messengers, sent to help us understand today and to accompany Christ on that final day. Head to Heart We are called to participate in sowing the Gospel seed. Jesus said to the disciples, “You shall be My witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth” (Acts 1:8). Where are you sowing the seed of the Gospel today? When the Roll is Called Up Yonder - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8-f9CyWWtw&list=RDN8-f9CyWWtw&start_radio=1

    Angelology | Revealing Mysteries

    August 19, 2026 – Revealing MysteriesNEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! Show Notes:Today we look at another remarkable role angels play in Scripture: interpreting visions and revealing mysteries to God's people. These aren't minor, background moments — again and again, when God wants a person to truly understand something beyond their comprehension, He sends an angel to walk them through it, verse by verse and image by image, until it makes sense. When I, Daniel, had seen the vision, I sought to understand it. And behold, there stood before me one having the appearance of a man. And I heard a human voice between the banks of the Ulai, and it called, "Gabriel, make this man understand the vision." So he came near where I stood. And when he came, I was frightened and fell on my face. But he said to me, "Understand, O son of man, that the vision is for the time of the end." Daniel 8:15-17 HEAD TO HEARTMessengers were sent to help the prophets understand the visions sent from the Lord. While most believers today do not experience prophetic visions, we can follow Daniel’s example. He tried to understand, but the Lord sent an angel to help him. As believers, we have God’s Written Word and the Holy Spirit. We can ask for the Lord’s guidance, wisdom, and insight. Take time to search the Scriptures and pray for discernment.

    Angelology | The Angel of the Lord

    Episode 9 – The Angel of the Lord NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! Show Notes In the Bible, the “Angel of the Lord” — sometimes called the Angel of Yahweh — is a unique figure. “Angel” simply means messenger, but this figure doesn't merely deliver a message on God's behalf. He speaks and acts as God Himself. In several of these encounters, the person fears for their life because they realize they've seen God. He finds Hagar in the wilderness and gives her a promise about her son, Ishmael (Genesis 16:7–12). The angel of the Lord appears to Moses “in flames of fire from within a bush” (Exodus 3:2–6) and again to Gideon (Judges 6:22). In various passages, the angel of the Lord speaks as God, identifies Himself as God, and exercises God's responsibilities. In at least some of these instances, this is a theophany — an appearance of God in physical form. HEAD TO HEART Throughout Scripture, the Angel of the Lord appears in the wilderness, at the altar, in the fire, on the road, and amid fear and uncertainty — and He is recognized as God Himself, present with His people. Consider this question: Do I tend to think of God's presence as distant and abstract, or as near, active, and personally stationed around me, as Psalm 34:7 describes? The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and delivers them. Psalm 34:7 SONG The Angel of the Lord - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3RcmJGRo50

    Angelology | Godly Warriors

    Season 23: Angelology — Episode 8: Godly Warriors NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! Show Notes : We serve a God of order and design. Angels play an important role in God’s plan for believers by guarding and protecting them. Protection in Scripture isn’t only physical—it is also spiritual. Angels fall into two categories: the “unfallen” angels and the fallen angels. Unfallen angels are those who have remained sinless throughout their existence and are accordingly called “holy angels.” The fallen angels are those who sinned and rebelled against God. Satan’s rebellion is described in the Bible as a spiritual revolt driven by pride, leading to his expulsion from heaven (Isaiah 14:12-15; Ezekiel 28:12-18; Revelation 12:7-9). The apostle Paul describes the armor of God, which enables believers to resist and stand firm in the spiritual battle. Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore, put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Ephesians 6:10-13 He presents the powerful pieces of the armor (vv. 14-17). Every piece is defensive except one—the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, feet fitted with the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation. The sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God, is the only offensive weapon in the list. Head to Heart Think about an area of your life right now where you feel spiritually under attack — maybe it's a persistent doubt, a temptation, or a discouragement that keeps circling back. Psalm 34:7 says the angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him. That's not a one-time rescue; it's a standing guard. Ask yourself: Do I truly believe I'm being watched over — or am I fighting this battle alone, relying on my own strength?

    Angelology | Guard and Protect

    July 29, 2026 | Lesson 7: Angels: Guard and Protect NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! SHOW NOTES: From the first chapters of Genesis to the book of Acts, Scripture shows us angels standing watch—guarding sacred ground, encamping around God's people, shutting the mouths of lions, and even opening prison doors. This isn't a side theme in the Bible. It's woven throughout Scripture. · After Adam and Eve are removed from the Garden, God places cherubim with flaming swords at the entrance to guard the way to the tree of life (Genesis 3:24). · A familiar Bible story is Daniel in the lions' den. After spending the night with the lions, Daniel tells the king, "My God sent His angel, and He shut the mouths of the lions" (Daniel 6:22). · The prophet Elisha and his servant were surrounded by the Aramean army. Elisha asks God to open the servant’s eyes—the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire (2 Kings 6:17). · In Acts 12, Peter is imprisoned for a second time, chained between two guards — and an angel appears. His chains fall off, and the angel leads him right past the guards and through the gates, which open by themselves. For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. Psalm 91:11 Head to Heart: Remember — Daniel wasn't kept out of the lions' den. Peter was freed, but James was not. Protection in Scripture doesn't always look like avoiding hardship altogether; sometimes it looks like God's presence sustaining us during it. Is there a trial you've been praying only for God to remove, when maybe He's asking you to trust His presence within it? What would it look like to shift that prayer from "get me out" to "meet me here"? SONG: Angels - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koGOTl48DcY&list=RDkoGOTl48DcY&start_radio=1

    Angelology | Worthy of All Praise

    Season 23: Angelology | #6 – Worthy of All Praise NEW! Watch us ONLINE! Click here! SHOW NOTES: In this season on Angelology, we are pulling back the curtain, as much as Scripture allows, on the unseen world God created alongside our own. We serve a God of order and design. From the very first page of Scripture, Genesis 1 shows us a Creator who doesn't work in chaos — He speaks light from darkness, separates the waters, sets the sun and moon on their courses, and calls it good. Every act of creation reflects His purpose, His harmony, His plan. And that same order extends beyond what we can see with our eyes. Last time, we met Michael — the archangel named in Jude 9 and Revelation 12:7, a warrior who contends for God's people. We also looked at the Chief Princes described in Daniel 10 and got our first glimpse of just how structured and purposeful the angelic realm really is. Nothing about it is random. Nothing about it is an afterthought. So that through the church the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly places. Ephesians 3:10 According to tradition, there are nine “choirs of Angels” grouped into three "hierarchies," with each group having an overall mission. This type of angelic organization is argued for by St. Thomas Aquinas in his Summa Theologiae. The top hierarchy includes Seraphim, Cherubim, and Thrones. This first hierarchy of angels is closest to God and remains in His presence, focused on pure love and justice. In the year that King Uzziah died, I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. And one called to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of his glory!” Isaiah 6:1-3 HEAD TO HEART: If seraphim — created to dwell in God's presence — respond to His holiness by covering their faces and humbling themselves, what does that teach us about how we approach Him? Do we come casually, or in awe? Do we remember that the God we walk with daily is the same God whose glory is too bright even for angels to behold? And yet — this same God invites us near, not to hide from Him in fear, but to walk with Him, to know Him, and to be transformed over time in His presence.
