why christians should not direct request to Angels



 Is the Church Reprobate? (3)

ANGEL AS MINISTERING SPIRIT
Hebrews chapter 1 verse 14 tells us than Angels of God are ministering spirit sent by God to minister to us, children of God.  But recently, some believers and pastors believe they could either give command or make request to angels. 
    The Bible does not contain such teaching. Every request is supposed to be directed to God, and every command directed to Satan or his works. Jesus’ teaching was that whatever we need is in God’s hands, therefore we are to pray to God in the name of Jesus, JOHN 14:13. 
   Angel of God only receives instruction from God, not even Jesus let alone man, because while Jesus was here, he was made a little lower than the angels, HEBREWS 2:7. Even when Jesus would have needed the help of angels in Gethsemane, he told Peter,     ‘’thinkest thou that  I cannot  now pray to my  father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?’’MATTHEW 26:53.
    We must understand that petition is part of worship. Angels of the devils are such because they deprive men from going to their creator to get help instead they stand on the way to proffer counterfeit solutions. 
    Any angel we engage with that gives any help or solution is not an angel of God. None of us is expected to communicate to either  saint or an angel, but Jesus says ‘’when you want to pray, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to THY FATHER WHICH IS IN SECRET, AND THY FATHER WHICH SEETH IN SECRET SHALL REWARD THEE OPENLY, MATHEW 6:6. God could decide to answer you by dispatching His angel for help, MATTHEW 4:6; 26:53, PSALM 91:11. 
    Lastly take this Paul’s counsel: ‘’let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind.’’ COLOSSIANS 2:18.
