Acts chapter 8 shares with us another angelic account. A revival had broken out in Jerusalem and they were proclaiming the Gospel through the villages. An angel came to Phillip and told him to go a specific route to Jerusalem. He did and on the way, he met a man in a chariot. The man in the chariot was an Ethiopian government official in charge of the treasury. When Philip saw him in the chariot, he heard him reading from the book of Isaiah.

Philip asked the eunuch, “Do you know what you’re reading?”

This was the door for Philip to minister the Gospel to this man who was a high-ranking official. The eunuch received the Lord that day. Just imagine what that did to the nation of Ethiopia! Angels are sometimes used to give direction to help advance the work of God.

Tomorrow, I want to share one more story with you about an angelic encounter my husband had. Until then, ponder all that the Christmas story holds for us through the ministry of angels!
