You are not fitting into your new role as heir. Not everyone is cut out for it.You want to fire all the staff as superfluous, not even acknowledge them let alone use them.

There's a chain of command with God just as the military.
When you break that chain of command you have disobeyed the foundation of command.
Calling on an angel to "sort things out" is breaking the chain!
Unlike the military, our orders are to take our requests to the Throne of God.
Heb. 4:16
"Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need."
The angels don't have a throne of grace we can call on.
You are granting power to yourself that you don't have.
The angels are like the Presidents cabinet, they work at his pleasure, not anyone else.
No, they have been sent to serve the Heirs of the Kingdom.
“Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?” Heb 1:14
As Heirs the angels are now our servants, doing our bidding.
I use the Angels all the time. If there is a difficult person I have to meet, I send my Angel ahead to smooth the way.
I use my Angel wake me up in the morning, to help me pray, to prompt me and remind me.
As Heirs we given Angels to be our servants, they are an integral part of an Heirs life.
Use the angels mate, they work, proven many times over.

I don’t remember denying that people talked to angels in Scripture. But if I ever run into one in this world, I’ll tell them to worship and praise the Lord. But I’m not about to author “Heaven Is Real” part 2
I have read about angels in the Bible. I’m much more skeptical of the evil and adulterous generation that needs the sign of an angel today. I affirm their existence. But I recognize God for His authority over them to aid me when needed. I desire to be closer to my Saviour. I have no desire to meet the spiritual realm of angels while I am alive.

And you are applying this Messianic text to yourself?
If you ever stub your toe, is your angel slacking?
Right. You’ll tell an Angel of God who is ever before the Face of The Father to worship and praise the Lord.
That’s the biggest case of preaching to the Choir I’ve ever heard.
Christianity is a supernatural way of life, it to has to be lived out that way for the words on the page to mean anything.
Catholics are very at home with the supernatural realities like Angels and miracles, we live these things out.
Angels are His Majesty’s Secret Service extended to His Heirs, but because it is a Royal inheritance, we also get the butlers, footmen and house maids.
I was very sick recently and Angels were with me, they have a very particular presence.
People can refuse secret service protection, knock back the butlers and staff of the Royal household. But this is stupid. If Jesus had ministering spirits to care for Him, we most certainly do.
A good Heir acknowledges the staff of ministering Angels and salutes them for their service.
They all have impeccable resumes and unique characters, lovingly extended to us by the Father to serve us.
Heirs don’t refuse this gift of The Father in complete ingratitude, He is sending out His finest incredible servants to be our servants.
Angels are a supernatural reality in our prayers and lives every day as Catholics.
Yes I am, because we are one body of Christ joint heirs with Christ.
You mock. This is a tool of the darkness.

Who commands the angels? God, not us.
I will go directly to God. That is as supernatural as you can possibly get.
Psalm 91:11,12,15
For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways.
They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

Certainly God commands His angels, never denied it.
But people have been denying that we can command the Angels as our servants. This is unscriptural, they are our servants as heirs of the Kingdom. If indeed we are Heirs , we will be commanding the Angels as our servants, you could call it a scriptural sign.
“Are not all angels ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation?” Heb 1:14
Angels are the best servants, we use them constantly every day.
Whatever you say, Cathode. It's just another reason I'm a Protestant and you're a Catholic.
