The Sword of Gilead & The Book of Angels
distinction clearly; Jesus was led by the Spirit,
taught by the Spirit, and filled with the Spirit, but
He was defended and fed by the angels.
Angels are also territorial spirits and
assigned to particular earthly territories. The
Archangel Michael is the Guardian Angel of Israel
(and ours too). The Bible shows us that cities are
under angelic guardianship (Dan. 12:1, Ezek. 9:1,
and Acts.16:9, Acts.10:30). When we read
Revelations Chapters 2 and 3, we can see this
clearly as the Lord addresses the Christian
churches; For example, "To the presiding spirit of
the Church in Ephesus."
The presiding spirit literally means the
angels, and these are the ones in charge of whole
communities and individuals alike. (Matt. 18:10,
Acts 12:15). Most certainly, there is a presiding
spirit - a principality of God over your area too.
However, there is also a demonic principality
battling for the souls of the people in that area, but
as we have understood, these principalities have
no power if we do not feed them, and in any
event, they cannot beat the power of God in Christ
Jesus and his angels.
St Thomas says in conclusion, to his
teachings on angels - "Only God is home for the
love of the angels, just as he is for us. The angels
must make their way home, for love's fire is the
Divine Flame, or there is no warmth." (St Thomas
Aquinas Summa Theologica / Hebrews. 1:7).
