There was so much angelic activity surrounding the birth of Jesus! Luke tells us about the angel Gabriel coming to visit Zechariah about the birth of John, and then Mary about the birth of Jesus. Matthew tells us about the angel of the Lord visiting Joseph in a dream to confirm that Mary is going to give birth to a baby conceived by the Holy Spirit, and he is to give him the name Jesus. When Jesus is born, an angel of the Lord appears to the shepherds to announce the birth of Jesus. And then a group of angels appears with that angel to announce praise and another message about what the birth of Jesus would bring.
Angels appear again and again throughout the Gospels and the book of Acts.
Hebrews 1:14 says,
Are not the angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?
Hebrews 13:2 says,
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
What are some other verses that mention angels?
Do you think you have you ever seen an angel? Do you know someone who has?
