Does God, have a guardian angel?

Hello there,

Just a little theological possibility, for you: does God, have a guardian angel?

My thought was that, yes, God has a guardian angel - simply because the Bible talks about God having all kinds of angels at His disposal.

Were it the case that God had a guardian angel, He could take on human form, and not sin.

What are your thoughts?

I don't really like the suggestion that "God doesn't need one" - for one thing: Jesus says we are to need each other.

But on the other, it is not really clear at all in the Bible that some angels have more power than others - which they would obviously need, in keeping with the responsibility to keep their jobs.

I personally, really, really, like the idea: if God creates, by delegating authority to different angels, then the Devil falling foul of God comes to be a little more understandable than "he chose evil, because it seemed like a good idea".

The verse about "Him giving angels charge over us, that we not dash our foot upon a stone" is certainly evidence that we have guardian angels, even if God does not - but I have never heard of scripture being exclusive to man...
