Our God Of Order

You are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

Colossians 2:10

It appears from the information in the Bible that Michael is the protecting and fighting angel and Gabriel is the preaching or announcing angel. Each of them has his own job description and carries out God’s will in perfection.

Our God is a God of order and organization. That characteristic of God is reflected in the angelic realm. God has set up an authority structure within the universe, within the church, within the family, within human government; and all these lesser authorities are in submission to the greater authority of Christ Himself. The Bible tells us we are complete in Him, “who is the head of all principality and power” (Colossians 2:10).

God is able to respond to our needs and the challenges of our lives because He is a God of power and order. He is able to do what is necessary, and His angels are set up to respond to His every directive.
