I find in interceding and praying that some things aid confidence in answered prayer. Testimonies of how prayers were answered for other people in the past, Biblical past and modern day. Bible promises and gifts of the Spirit given promises. This results in me referring to God's arm, hand long arm, far reaching arm, his finger, his angels of light including guardian angels and his face towards us. I may also think of mentioning his feet in prayer.
I mention angels because they carry messages, and the Holy Spirit and are intelligent, or wise. Thinking that if someone is asleep, just praying for them to be covered in Jesus' sacred blood or be delivered from an unclean presence is roughshod. And we pray for people all around the world. Governments, Israel, China, India, Pakistan, Hungary, Russia the USA and Canada... Artists, writers, youth, pastors and head pastors...
There are guardian angels, a tradition of guardian angels of nations, angels that are always in God's panim, or face, and there are a vast number of holy angels that are available when God is asked, for their works. Many times in Global Awakening and other charismatic churches, angels are mentioned bringing oil. Six foot tall angels and nine foot tall angels. Angels with or without wings. Angels seen blowing fire on sicknesses which are healed. Small angels carrying prayers to God.
In another thread I can link here we discussed whether if in the Spirit you see God's hand, does one see a big hand or a holy angel? Surely the angels also know how to accurately minister, the graces, like sprinkling Jesus' sacred blood on relenting sinners... They can know from God, and we can ask for them to know even more, to work greater works. By tradition they have wisdom. An angel attended Jesus before he died and strengthened him, obviously with blessing from the Father.
I wanted to post this thread in the Catholic Charismatic forum but it is a closed group. I move with them and Pentecostals. I do not believe in praising and worshiping angels. I do not believe in speaking to them directly to pray to them instead of God, with the exception of praying the rosary with Catholics infrequently. I do not believe in transubstantiation.
Personally I think Michael and Gabriel probably both archangels are busy and have their work cut out for them. Gabriel of course delivered a great message to Mary and the seed! A powerful angel!
So I may ask in Jesus' name, for God's hand and face and angels frequently in prayer, but not ask the angels themselves and do not praise them... This helps me trust God, to answer prayers well. Like a catalyst.
