ACTIVATE YOUR ANGELS
“Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, Hearkening unto the voice of his word”. Psalm 103:20 (KJV)
In today’s world of violence, war, bloodshed, natural disasters, and uncertainties, we must deploy all the spiritual weapons at our disposal. God has not abandoned us to be minced meat for the devil.

Part of God’s provisions for our protection and survival are angels. In Ps. 34:7 the Psalmist declares that the angels of the Lord encamp around us to bring deliverance to us. Also in Psalm 91:11, he declares that the Lord gives His angels charge over us to keep us in all our ways. It will shock you to know that despite all these angelic provisions for us, a lot of God’s children are going about without any protection. The reason is that they have not known how to activate and deploy their angels.
Our text for today says that the angels hearken to the voice of His word. Notice that it did not say that they hearken to God’s word. Rather it says they hearken to the VOICE OF HIS WORD. The question is “Who will give voice to the word of God?” Remember, all that God will do, He has done, and He has left us in charge here on earth. We are God’s authorized agent, we are the extension of His mouth, hands, and feet. If God must declare anything today, it will be through us. That explains why I say “Open your mouth or die” because a closed mouth is a closed destiny.
Decide this year not to let any day slip by without your declaration of all that God has said concerning you. If the world hears Him, they will hear Him through you. If your challenges must hear Him, they will hear Him through you. You cannot afford to close your mouth; creation is waiting eagerly for you to act and the time to act is now.
You must therefore open your mouth and give voice to God’s word today so that your angels can be active.
