Let’s start the Christmas season by looking at the role of Angels working out God’s plans and working in our lives. The greatest story ever told begins with an angel appearing to Mary and delivering news that God was doing a new thing and she was part of His plan. Come to Emmanuel this Sunday to be encouraged to understand and share the remarkable characters in the Christmas story this season.

Christians should never fail to sense the operation of angelic glory. It forever eclipses the world of demonic powers, as the sun does a candle’s light. – Billy Graham
The angels are the dispensers and administrators of the divine beneficence towards us; they regard our safety, undertake our defense, direct our ways, and exercise a constant solicitude that no evil befall us. – John Calvin
#4 Angels are LIMITED Messengers—You must do things
they cannot
Angels cannot preach the gospel, only beings such as Paul and you and I can preach the gospel. – Oswald Chambers
