PROMISE FOR NOVEMBER 22ND

"The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear Him and delivereth them." Psalm 34:7

Encampment -- a continued and abiding presence. R. 3441, c.1, p.2.

During the Gospel Age it has been God's will that the Spiritual House of Israel should walk by faith and not by sight, and therefore it would be inappropriate after the Church was fully established to expect angels to appear, to manifest themselves outwardly....The followers of Christ have the Bible and the invisible ministries of the holy angels to provide for their interests and to providentially guard and guide their affairs. This, to us, is very real and of great comfort. If we had the thought that God was doing all this personally, we would think that He had certainly forgotten us. But having the assurance of His Word that not a hair of our heads can fall to the ground without our Father's attention, our mind can rest in the fact that He accomplished His purposes in Christ for His children through the ministrations of the holy angels. R. 5635, c.1, p1; c.2, p.2.
