Merry Christmas! Today on Miracles Happen we are talking about how God uses angels to fulfill His will on earth. Some lack awareness of the activity of angels around their life and many people are highly aware of their presence. God uses angels in many ways, such as messengers, ministers, helpers and servants. They can care, protect and guide us in life. There are 5 instances in which angels appear in the Christmas story that we are going to look at more closely to see how this could apply in our own lives. The first appearance was with Zachariah in Luke 1:11. He was told his prayers had been heard and he was going to have a son who would do great things for God. What a wonderful message to receive! We see Mary encounter an angel that told her that she would be giving birth to Jesus. The next appearance comes from an angel visiting with Joseph as he was contemplating the tough decision of breaking off the engagement with Mary or suffering the embarrassment of pregnancy out of wedlock. The angel also confirmed that the baby's name would be Jesus. The angels also appeared to the shepherds in the field, signifying that this good news was for every man, even the common man. Last, we see the angels appearing with a warning for Joseph to take Mary and Jesus and flee to Egypt to escape the hands of Herod. Join me for the full episode of Miracles Happen as I unpack each of the instances and dive into what God is saying through his heavenly helpers and how we can partner with them to accomplish God's divine will for our life.
