"Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, 'Arise quickly!' And his chains fell off his hands."
Acts 12:7
God works in the natural realm to accomplish the supernatural. I think much of what we attribute to the natural is actually angels doing the supernatural. God could have just zapped Peter and transported him out of the prison. But He didn't. Peter had to tie his shoes, put on his clothes, and walk out of the prison gate (which opened by itself) into the street (vss. 8-10). Peter thought this was a dream or a vision. But it was in the real world. God's angels (ministering spirits to the heirs of salvation, Hebrews 1:14) are daily at work in my life, even though I don't see them. They are protecting and delivering (where were the guards, inquiring minds want to know) . They may have to strike me to get my attention, but they are active in my life.
Today's Thought: God's angels are working in the natural to accomplish the supernatural.
Have a supernatural day. Love you.
