June 18, What can angels not do? What can you not do?

(To read more about this subject, go to Do You Know How God Loves you? June 18.)

When Lucifer sinned and fell from heaven, he took one third of the angels with him. The remaining angels are free from sin. The ones who did not fall remain sinless. When one of us repents, the angels have a big celebration. (Luke 15:10) They long for us to be reborn.

What can angels not do?
They cannot give their testimony because they don't have one. They cannot say they were lost but now found. They cannot testify to what they have not experienced.

They cannot say,“While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8) When the Lord appeared to Isaiah in the temple and said, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” (Isaiah 6:8), He did not have plans to send angels because He did not create them for that task.

It is our job to say, “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in thine heart that God raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved,” (Romans 10:9)

Now what can you not do?

You cannot cause people to be saved! All you can do is share the message. You cannot soften hard hearts. The Holy Spirit has that job!
