I would attribute that to the Holy Spirit working through someone here on earth. As has been pointed out already, angels are male not female. Very cool testimony though brother, the Holy Spirit is very tangible here on earth

I do not know if this is an angel or not, but I do know angels exist. An angel ministered to me before I became a believer, but I could not see her. Later after coming to Christ I shared the Gospel to a laundry room attendant. The pay phone rang and a little black boy answered it then came to me and asked if I was the preacher in the room. Having only known Christ for a year, I did not think of myself in that way. However, I was clearly the only one sharing the Gospel, so I said, Yes. He said the phone was for me. I answered and a woman on the end told me that I was doing a great job. She told me her name was Helen. I asked her if she was my angel and she said, Yes. I told her I was aware of her in New Jersey before I was a believer in Christ.
Later I told the congregation about the experience and they said that there were no female angels listed in the Bible. That may be so, but this was a female for sure. Furthermore, there was no one in the room but me and the attendant of the laundry room. I don't even know where that little black boy came from.
To be a testimony to others.Why did the angel visit your wife?
Really? Lol so an angel popped in to show her that they are real, but left her to explain to the rest of the world what she saw.To be a testimony to others.
We both asked ourselves that question, and that is the best answer we came out with because whenever she tells the story to someone, they can feel the spirit of God and leads to that person wanting to know more about God. I also believe it was a way for God to show her she has His protection while she is alone at home while Im away at sea, as He said Psalms 91:11 before it happened.Really?

Ive noticed that angels in the bible generally had a fairly big message like your going to give birth to someone very special etc. I honestly can't see them just popping in to see your wife without a real message.We both asked ourselves that question, and that is the best answer we came out with because whenever she tells the story to someone, they can feel the spirit of God and leads to that person wanting to know more about God.

I don't know what else to tell you Andrew4Jesus except that my wife and I are very close to God. She's the one who's had encounters with angels and can hear God's messages which come in verses given to her either for her or for me. It must be a gift because it never happened to me. What really surprised me was if it is a gift to be able to see angels in their spiritual form, only the one who has the gift would be able to see them, but in this case it showed on her camera. She's had 3 encounters with angels. First one was when she was younger. She was walking home from work at night, and a car with two men pulled up next to her. They got out and told her to get in, they grabbed her trying to force her in. As she was fighting them and screaming a man appeared out of no where and screamed "leave her alone". Im not sure in what form they saw this man but were afraid and left quickly with their car. The man walked her to a nearby pay phone to call her mom. He picked up the phone without dialing or knowing the number and gave her the phone with her mom awaiting to talk to her. When she hung up the man had vanished. The second encounter is written here on the thread. This was the third except that the angel was in its spiritual form without interfering with anything.Ive noticed that angels in the bible generally had a fairly big message like your going to give birth to someone very special etc. I honestly can't see them just popping in to see your wife without a real message.
I'm sorry buddy I just don't buy it. It sounds to me like your wife and yourself want to live in a cotton wool world, while the rest of us struggle lol.

Hello again dms1972. God speaks to people in different ways, the way He speaks to my wife is by putting Bible verses in her mind. He also speaks to me that way but through my wife, because I don't have that gift. Even when she is sleeping at night a verse will come out of her mouth for me at times when God wants to tell me something. Its His way of communicating with us because we are joined as one in marriage. So that is the way it happened before she saw the angel, God gave that verse in her mind, then she read it and then it appeared. I have to admit it must be a very rare thing to happen to someone, because most Christians will go through a whole life time without ever seeing anything. I've personaly never seen one myself. But I know my wife wouldn't make something like that up just to get attention. To me, I know many will believe that picture is real and many won't, it doesn't really make a difference even though I wish everyone would, because it is the truth. I just hope it lifts the faith of some who are going through rough times, the ones who need some kind of visual proof when living by faith alone becomes hard.I have questions too, such if they can be captured on film, why can't we see them all the time?
But the issue of angels isn't a big one for me right now. As I said in the other thread i think seeing Angels may be spiritual or discernment, or an intuition, but not physical seeing as that seems to mean they are not supernatural beings.
Also does just having this experience after reading a verse of scripture mean its from God?
The light in the top left corner of the window isn't the sun, its where the angel began to appear, and slowly moved to the right to where those power lines are, then began to dissapear in the distance little by little. Luckily my wife had a good zoom on her phone camera.
Me too. As soon as she began to see it it was moving far away from her towards the sky, as if God only wanted her to catch a glimpse of it, so she only had a few seconds to think of what she was going to do. She is good at taking pictures with her phone so that's what she did.I wish she had taken video and not just pictures...
Yes its true, we shouldn't worship angels nor seek them more than God. Many new agers are into the worship of angels and trying to communicate with them.
Considering that there are a couple of good testimonies here I would say yes, all glory goes to Him.Would you consider this thread glorifying to God?
