Are guardian angels real? And do they oversee the affairs of man?
Well, there are examples in the Old Testament of angels who were assigned specific nations
and even sent forth to particular individuals with the message from God.
But there isn't enough evidence to substantiate the claim that all of mankind
has a guardian angel. However, there are passages in the Bible that would imply that
children are assigned specific angels. The Bible says in Matthew chapter 18 in verse number 10,
take heed that you despise not one of these little ones, for I say unto you,
that in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father, which is in heaven.
Hebrews chapter 1 and verse 14 says, are they not all ministering spirits
sent forth to minister for them who shall be the heirs of salvation?
So the possible implication could be that when a person gets saved,
they actually retain the ministering spirit who was once assigned to them when they were children.
And according to Psalm 34 verse 7, one of the main ways that angels minister to us
is by protecting and delivering us from the hand of God.
