Angels among us.

Hebrews 13:2
Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.

The proof of angels through out scripture is without argument. 
Some were sent for guidance. Some were sent for deliverance. Some to "foretell" coming events but all were sent to make some provision of God sure and unmistakable about who it came from.

Here is our "Angel story" that comes to mind.

We were saved in 1981 during the "recession" that started in 1979 and went on through till 1983 in our area. During that time I was blessed to have work as an industrial bricklayer working at Zug Island in Mi. Mostly coke battery repair work, not steady but a provision of God to meet our needs for which we were very grateful. Times were tough but faith and excitement in the new found Faith kept our eyes open for any manifestation of God's provision with many exciting manifestations happening. 

Each need was bathed in prayer daily and God was always faithful to meet those needs. One of the needs at the time was to sell our 1978 Ford Bronco because gas had just went up to $.57/gallon and we could not afford to drive the car back and forth to work (my job, Elise was a stay at home Mom), 3 hours round trip (135 miles) each day. I needed to sell the car and use the money to buy a car with much better gas millage so I listed it in the local papers. After several days we received a phone call from a man in Ann Arbor, Mi, (about 30 mins away), that he was interested in the car and wanted to see it. We set up a time to meet and he said he would take it. The price was $5,800 and he didn't offer any lower price. This was a custom car with detailing that made it singular. He announced that he would be out of town for 2 wks and that he would pick it up when he returned. I offered that he should give me his phone number and a down payment for me to hold it because the sale was very important to our finances. He agreed and gave me $200 to hold it till he returned at which time I told him about the goodness of God and how he was being used by God to meet our needs. He looked at me and said: "You don't know how much you are being taken care of right now" and then he left. When he was a day or two late in getting back to pick up the car I called the number he had given me and no one recognized his name or who he was. That made me nervous because we were "waiting" on the money for another car and to pay some bills. 

He showed up a couple of days later with cash for the vehicle and an apology for being late. Off he drove with the car again stating "how blessed we were" and "how great Gods provisions were". 

Elise and I had looked at cars and were ready to pick one up within the next couple of days which we did. On the way home we drove past a Ford dealer near our house and seen the car we just sold sitting on the lot. I had to pull in and get the details. The salesman said that it came in minutes after he left our house on the very day I sold it to him and he dropped it off. I asked what they bought it for and he said around $2500. So I asked if it was traded in for another car and the salesman said "no he just dropped it off, took the check and walked out. The purchaser told me he was from Ann Arbor 40 miles away.
That's when Elise and I realized that he was an "angel unawares". We followed up with calls to the number and again "never heard of" was the answer. 

The man who bought the car was no one either Elise or I recognized but he ha a very pleasant countenance and was very humble in presentation. All his actions and words acknowledged God when he spoke and a very unusual peace surrounded his visits.

To this day we believe that this was an angel and cherish the "manifestation" of Gods provisions however He may bring them.

Hoping this has inspired to keep in the faith, expecting God to manifest Himself in meeting your needs even if it means using an angel.
