ANGELS: MIGHTY IN POWER



*10/06/2020*

MID-WEEK *HOLY COMMUNION* SERVICE

THEME: *ANGELS: MESSENGERS OF GOD.*

TOPIC: *WHO ARE ANGELS?*

SUB-TOPIC: *ANGELS: MIGHTY IN POWER.*

Introduction
*Hosts*: Definition.
Hebrews: *tseba'ah*
Isaiah 10:16; Genesis 2:1;  Psalms 103:21; 148:2.
This word comes from a verb meaning "to fight" or "to serve".
The term also commonly refers to combat troops ( 2 Kings5:1; 1 Chronicles 7:11, 40).
"The armies of the LORD" is an expression used once for the children of Israel, and twice for God's army of angels (Exodus 12:41; Joshua 5:14,15).

2 Kings19:35
This verse is the fulfillment of God's promise to take vengeance on those who trouble His people (Isaiah 34:8).
Often a visitation from the angel of the Lord brought deliverance to God's people, as in the incident with Balaam (Numbers 22) and the appearances to Gideon (Judges6:11,12) and Manoah (Judges13). At other times the angel of the Lord came in judgment (2 Samuel 24:10-25). Here the angel of the Lord delivers His people by fighting for them (Exodus 15:3).

Psalms 103:20,21
Angels are summoned to praise him. Angels are regularly spoken of in the Bible as doing God's will, and Jesus taught us to pray for God's will to be done on earth as it is done in heaven (that is, by the angels).

2 Thessalonians 1:7

2 Peter 2:11

*Confession*
May the angel of the Lord bring you deliverance and judge all your enemies.
May the combat troops of heaven and the armies of the Lord fight for you.
*In Jesus' name*
Amen.

THE ROYAL HOUSE OF TROY

 *THE ROYAL HOUSE OF TROY* The traditional founder of Troy's famed royal house was Dardanus, a few generations prior to Tros and Ilus: "Dardanus, in Greek legend, the son of Zeus and the Pleiad Electra, mythical founder of Dardania on the Hellespont (the nearby strait separating Dardania from Hellas or Greece now called the Dardanelles). He was the ancestor of the Dardans of the Troad (the region surrounding Troy)... "According to tradition ... Dardanus fled from Arcadia (in the middle of Mycenaean Greece) across the sea to Samothrace (a northern Aegean island). When that island was visited by a flood, he crossed over to the Troad ... Being hospitably received by Teucer (ruler of Phrygia), he married Teucer's daughter Bateia and became the founder of the royal house of Troy"  ("Dardanus, "Encyclopedia Britannica, Micropaedia, 1985, Vol.3, p.884). In his acclaimed *Story of Civilization*, historian Will Durant writes: "Who were the Trojans? An Egypt

WILL JESUS FIND FAITH?

  *WILL JESUS FIND FAITH?* *In times of crisis more people turn to God, yet usually for only a short time. Will we break the pattern?* Jesus posed a startling question to His disciples in *Luke 18:8: "When the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?"* Faith in God is diminishing day by day, year by year. Statisticians and researchers have produced many reports showing the decline of faith in America and the Western world. When a crisis strikes our world - be it a war, a terrorist attack or a health pandemic - we often see short-lived return to faith. More prayers go up to God for a short while. Recent Pew research polling has found that most people are praying more during the coronavirus outbreak than before. But the pattern we've seen before is that as a great crisis is resolved and fades, life goes back to normal. Churches are mostly empty again. What are people thinking, and does it matter? Why should we be concerned about what society at large believ
