Voices of Angels

Encounter with an Angel

Top 10 Religious Mysteries and Miracles

1.Marian Apparitions
For centuries, visions of Mary, the mother of Jesus, have been reported around the world. Notable apparitions include: Guadalupe, Mexico (1531); Fatima, Portugal (1917); Lourdes, France (1858); Gietrzwald, Poland (1877); among others.

2.Angel Encounters
Scores of books have been written and countless stories have been told by people who believe they have had personal encounters with beings they say are angels.

3.Ark of the Covenant
The Old Testament book of Exodus describes in detail the box, overlayed with gold, that the Israelites built from God's instructions to contain the broken tablets on which were written the original Ten Commandments. Not only that, God also said, "And there I will meet with you, and I will speak with you ... about everything which I will give you in commandment to the children of Israel."

4.Incorruptibles
Incorruptibles are the bodies of saints that miraculously do not decay -- even after decades or even a century or more. The bodies often lie in public view in churches and shrines.

5.Stigmata
One of the more gruesome and controversial miracles is stigmata, when a person inexplicably is afflicted with Jesus's crucifixion wounds, usually on the palms of the hands and feet. The phenomenon dates back at least to St. Francis of Assisi (1186-1226) and has been claimed by numerous saints since.

6.Weeping and Bleeding Icons
Statues, paintings and other likenesses of Jesus, Mary and saints that appear to weep or even bleed are routinely reported around the world; there are numerous claims every year.

7.Healing Power of Prayer
There is an ongoing debate about the healing power of prayer. One month you'll see an article about an experiment that shows prayer was statistically relavant in healing patients, and the next month another experiment shows that it had no effect whatsoever.

8.Shroud of Turin
No matter how much scientific testing is done to the Shroud of Turin, the results will never be satisfying to everyone.

9.Papal Prophecies
Several Popes of the Catholic Church have not only been the subjects of prophecy, but have also been prophets.

10.Star of Bethlehem

While the faithful accept the New Testament Gospels as fact, religious scholars and scientists often seek a scientific basis for many of the events they describe.

A Clear Explanation Of The Role Of The Angel

Rare thinking people like you already know that each angel has a position and role play in our lives here on earth. Let your inner mind shift back to a time when you came out of a horrible situation without a scratch. And you know that is was the power of God - sending his angels to intervene on your behalf. Understand this: Just because there is an order to the population of angels, they are no closer or more significant to God to any other being. Angelic beings are capable of advancing from one level to the next as their good deeds and bodies of experience are measured. Stated a little differently, the more powerful the angel, the higher the order or level.

The angels that most often travel to earth are those who protect us and rescue us from danger. They do not have wings and are busy standing in the gap for us. Arch angels are the image makers. Their badges of honor include not only silver and golden wings, but headdresses and crowns. This is how their progress of moving up the hierarchy is displayed. The more they accomplish, the more silver and gold appear on their wings as the move on to the next level. God uses archangels as his messengers. The most talked about it the Archangel Gabriel who told Mary should would be the mother of Jesus, the son of God.

The next level are the angels that are God's witnesses here on earth. Cherubim and Seraphim are on-site reports for God. The time that they were most visible was when Jesus Christ was born. At the top of the hierarchy are the Thrones and Principalities. No doubt these angels are the most powerful. Thrones are known as the keepers of wisdom. They never travel to our dimension.

Principalities on the other hand are the miracle makers. They do visit us on earth but only with God's exclusive direction and only when a situation is at a catastrophic level. Miracles are born when there is a gathering of Principalities sent from God and their vast power among the angels. So, now you know that there is always help available when you need it. Let your new found awareness open the door to miracles happening in your life.
