encounters throughout the course of his or her ministry. The messenger knows that the Lord’s physical kingdom is in the hands of these creatures that are bound by construction and design to obey and serve the Creator no matter what. Early in the prophet’s experience, the minister is introduced to the Lord God’s invisible agents, powers, and governmental and judicial forces.

Genesis 28:12, confirmed by the Lord Jesus in John 1:51, says that an innumerable company of angels tend to the Creator’s affairs on earth; not leaving to them human instruments alone.
