Re: Women's Hair: Men Like It Longer

Interesting thought, sister, but angel does not always mean a heavenly angel, but can refer to a preacher. ANGEL literally means MESSENGER. And since angels cnanot repent to redeem themselves, the angels of the churches told to repent were the church's pastors.

My thoughts, anyway.

In Christ there is neither male nor female. I can't help but believe it was the perfect
will of God to have an angel represented in every home.

God said HE sought for a man to make up the hedge, but HE didn't find a man. So HE put
an angel in each church. But that wasn't perfect either as HE had somewhat
against each.

The OT mentions on more than one occasion, "the angel of His Presence". The "ark
of the covenant" represented His Presence. But in and through the New Covenant,
His Presence could/should be in every one who who received Him. He would be IN
them, instead of just WITH them. It just depends on how much of His Presence we
desire and will allow. How much do we desire or stay in His Presence. HE is able to
do exceeding abundantly above what we can ask or think, ACCORDING TO THE
POWER/PRESENCE that dwelleth IN us!!!

I believe it is God's Will and desire to have a representative, someone in every home
to represent HIS POWER and HIS PRESENcE!!! It can be male or female. Someone who
will consecrate and dedicate to stand in the "gap/or make up the hedge, so that when
the enemy comes into a home or sanctuary, that "angel of HIS PRESENCE, can with
power and authority stand and say with authority, "NO, devil! Not this home! Not this
sanctuary!! and stand ....!


14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate
of righteousness;

15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts
of the wicked.

17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with
all perseverance and supplication for all saints;

Now what was that we were saying about "power on her head because of
the angels"!
You get a "mother hen" and try to get near her "chicks" and you
will have a fight on your hands". It is the nature of a true mother to want to
protect and fight for her "babies" and she'll die before she lets the enemy
have them!! Do I hear an amen!! It's her very nature. No wonder Jesus told
"his own , even though they rejected him, "how oft would I have gathered
you together as a mother doth her chicks, but you would not.


Blessings,
