Angels and their roles are a fascinating part of Christian faith. Many wonder if we each have a guardian angel specifically assigned to protect and guide us throughout our lives. The Bible offers glimpses into angelic roles, suggesting that angels are “ministering spirits, sent out to render service for the sake of those who will inherit salvation” (Hebrews 1:14). Jesus himself mentions “their angels in heaven” watching over “these little ones” (Matthew 18:10), which has led some to believe in the idea of personal guardian angels.
Angels in Scripture act as protectors, messengers, and spiritual warriors, sometimes intervening in dangerous situations or bringing God’s messages to His people. While angels serve a powerful role in God’s plan, it’s also clear that their work is distinct from the roles of deceased loved ones, who do not return as angels or watch over us in the same way (Luke 16:19-31).
Do you believe that God assigns specific guardian angels to each of us, or that angels act on a more general level to fulfill God’s will?
