If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow. CHINESE PROVERB
For He will give His angels charge concerning you,
To guard you in all your ways.
They will bear you up in their hands,
That you do not strike your foot against a stone.
PSALM 91:11-12 NASB
God will give His angles charge concerning you. We often pray this in our prayers as we pray for Gods protection over us. I have trouble with the word charge. It seems to go against me. Today as I again study the Ninety-first Psalm, a psalm I consider to be the theme song of warriors, I find that I need to go deeper into the word that has been translated into the English as charge. We are all warriors in Gods Army, some are on the front line and do battle in the trenches with the enemy. Some are the support troops, a very important job because no army can fight with out good support. Some are leaders that develop battle plans and have the gift of seeing the big picture. Some are inspirational leaders that keep the troops strong spiritually, because not only is there an overall battle going on, there is an individual battle taking place in the mind of each soldier. Regardless of where you are in the Army of God, your job is an important part, and your job can be done successfully only by you. Our Commander in Chief is the Father, Jesus is our leader into battle, and the Holy Spirit works in each one of us to give us power beyond our own abilities. The kind of Power that you only see in combat. That brings me back to the word charge, with the Father as my commander, why would angels have charge over me? As I study the Hebrew word Tsavah, pronounce Tsaw-vaw I find the meaning to go deeper than just having charge over. Share with me this definition from Strongs Hebrew Dictionary, to constitute, enjoin, appoint, forbid, give a charge, give in command, give with command, send with command, send a messenger, put, and set in order. I like enjoining and sending with a command. The angels do not have charge over me, but have been charged to fight along side with me. They are an army within themselves, and they are our allies in this battle. By accepting the charge or command that has been given them, God does for me what I could not do for myself JRE
Of the heavenly things, God has shown me, I can speak but a little word, no more than a honeybee can carry away on its foot an overflowing jar.

Oh, the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgments and unfathomable His ways!
ROMANS 11:33 NASB
For He will give His angels charge concerning you,
To guard you in all your ways.
They will bear you up in their hands,
That you do not strike your foot against a stone.
