  
Angels are the last of the Nine Orders of the Celestial
Hierarchy. They are ever ready to go wherever the Will
of God sends them.
They have two major tasks: First, they are responsible
for watching over the affairs of mortals in a more direct
manner than their leaders, the Principalities. Instead
of watching entire nations, angels watch over house-
holds and individual souls, guiding them subtlety and
keeping them safe from demonic attack.
Secondly, they carry God's Word to mankind and
act as messengers and couriers to both God and the
upper ranks of the Celestial Hierarchy. With a true
sense of values, they minister to all, even those who
sin. In Hebrew, they are called mal'akh, meaning
"messenger", in Persian the word is angaros, which
means "courier".
