Have You Ever Saw An Angel?

Hebrews 1 verse 14 "Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?"

The following is a testimony of two incidents where I believe God sent an angel to minister unto me:

In July 1993, I was driving down the highway during a blazing hot day. There, beside the rode, was an elderly gentleman hitchhiking. He was dressed up in a suit and had a small bag of belongings with him. The Lord spoke, and said, "Pick up this man." At this command, I stopped my old Datsun truck and offered him a ride. He gladly accepted as he pulled out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his face. I introduced myself and asked him where he was going. He said he was going to Washington, D.C. As he began to talk, I felt the presence of the Lord. This man was of a swarthy complexion. He said he was an Eskimo and came from Puerto Rico where he had been in seminary. He showed me a military identification card that reflected that he was a retired Colonel, U.S. Marines. He spoke 12 languages fluently. As I pondered this information, this verse of scripture popped into my mind, "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers; for thereby some have entertained angels unawares" (Hebrews 13.2). The Lord spoke to me and told me to take him the forty miles to Jesup (Amtrak station), and to give him that $100 I had in my pocket. I obeyed. Out of the mouth of this man came answers to some of my prayers I had prayed. One of these prayers was about going to Washington, D.C. I later went on this mission, and the Lord used me in a great way.

On 28 February, 2004, after church, the Lord spoke to me and told me to go to Ocala, Florida, about 160 miles from where I live. I packed a few belongings and drove on down there. When I arrived, I asked the Lord where to stay, and He directed me to the old Ritz in downtown Ocala. I booked my room, and looked around at some of the sights. I retired for the night, and woke up refreshed. I went down to the area where they served a continental breakfast. The attendant and I were the only ones there. I got a cup of coffee and a few pastries, and sat down. Soon, in walked a young woman whose presence filled the room. She had the brightest blue eyes and a glow about her. There was a karaoke machine there, so I asked her, jokingly, if she was the singer. She then begin to sing a beautiful song, I Can Only Imagine, a song about heaven. When she sang, it was so beautiful and peaceful. I talked with her some about the Lord, and relayed some of the burdens I was going through. She told me that God loved me, placed her hand (the warmth of her hand was incredible) on my heart, and said, "You are a good man. God loves you very much and will take care of you." She then departed and I was left with a lasting impression of God's wonderful love. About an hour later, I went to my truck to leave, and there, posted on my window was a note. It said, "God said to me...with all the riches you've stored...you've got so much rewards to choose from...and all you want is love..You shall have it." I still have the note. I never seen her again (she could have been anywhere between the ages of 18 to 30). And the Lord has showered His love upon me. I am blessed.

I have an angel who watches over my family and I. He keeps me in line. If I am thinking bad thoughts and walking through my house, I trip over NOTHING or bump into a wall that I should have had more than enough clearance. I was talking smack on the phone a week ago and the lights flickered and dimmed in my house! Oh, yeah! There's an angel among us here!
My angel even tried to prevent me from taking a trip I did not need to go on. I got in my truck and about 2 miles down the road I discovered I forgot my wallet, ID, driver's license, etc. I came home, got them and on the way back to the truck I noticed a bottle of gas additive. I grabbed it because I needed to put gas in the truck. As I picked it up, the bottle broke and I got chemical all over my hand. I shook it to clean my hand and the chemical splashed into my eyes! I was standing in my driveway, blinded but determined to go on the trip. So, my angel knew the only way to get to me was to appeal to my Good Samaritanism. As I drove down I-95 South, I noticed in the median, a car wrapped around a tree and no one helping the driver who was injured. I thought the car was an unmarked police car, which is really close to home since I was an MP in the Army. I attempted to pull my truck onto the left shoulder, which was only 12 inches wide- truck tires are 15 inches wide. Well, I hit the shoulder and my tires went into the foot-high wet grass and me and my daughter went for the ride of our lives at 50 mph. I kept pleading,"Oh, God, No!" the whole time going closer and closer to the tree line. We slammed head-on into a tree and by God's grace, the impact site on the bumper was 1 inch from the frame of the truck. The end of the frame poked through the bumper, but the frame was unbent. A tow-truck showed up and pulled the bumper straight. We started the truck and after a quick once over, I drove that truck home 60 miles to my house.
That's my story. And yes, my angel was riding with us!

When my mother was dieing in the hospital, she'd gotten saved and reborn a couple months before, yet incontinent the last hours, my earhtly father, her husband told me how Mom sat up in the bed as tho nothing was wrong with her. She told him to tell us kids she loved us and she loved him also, but had to go and be with God now. Unknown to him, I was on the road nearly to a distant heading. I knew something was wrong, yet my friend kept going to our destination. When got back, found out what happened and found she had died the exact moment I believe an Angel warned me as well. My earthly father found the hospital minister and got saved and reborn moments after the occurance. Really wild isn't it how God works sometimes? God Bless all of you!!

foxgirl74,
I am very sorry for your loss. Is there anything we could do for you? Did your dad know the Lord?

The Lord is right there with you while you are going through this, that's his promise.
Matthew 5:4 - Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Father, we bring Jag before you. Lord replace her grief with Your peace. May she know your presence and find comfort in Your arms. Clothe her in Your Spirit, fill the loss she is feeling right now with You Lord God. Make her thoughts of her dad - happy thoughts and memories - in Jesus name - Amen!

I have had a number of times where I've felt an angel was watching over me. One time our family and my mom's brother and his family were all riding in my uncle's van with a small baby. We were going at high speeds on the freeway and had driven quite a distance. Then something impressed my uncle to pull over off the road for no reason. We were heading back home and we all wondered why he had suddenly taken a detur and turned into this convalesant center. He didn't know either. But just as we did, one of the tires fell off. It turned out that when my uncle had replaced the tires on the van, they had not sufficently tightened the lug nuts, so they were all gradually coming lose and falling off. We were all stunned when we thought what could have happened if that had happened at a high speed.

I've always heard that we may entertain angels and not be aware. I subscribe to this magazine from guideposts about Angels on Earth. It is full of wonderful experiences and encounters people have had with angels.
