Angels Candol and Anka, this is a special child I have placed in your care,” Almighty God said to the attentive Earth-angels.
Mostly sent out by ones, these angels were part of a special brigade of angels sent out in teams to provide high-security protection to certain subjects as Almighty God deemed necessary. This was one of those times.
“She is destined to preach in all corners of their known world. But she will endure much pain and hurt before I will be able to use her. Stay with her at all times,” God instructed.
“Never leave her side no matter what happens to or with her. The forces of evil will attempt to take her away from the Kingdom of God. She will turn for a season. Even during that season, guard Margarette Ann with your very lives. Do you understand?” commanded God sternly.
“Yes, Almighty, we understand,” the angels answered in unison as they understood the magnitude of the situation.
This was a rarity in the angelic-realm. Though the vast majority of their missions were one guardian angel per Earthbound pre-born spirit, every so often a pair of angels would be sent to protect one pre-born. As a matter of fact, the last time was for … well, that was another story altogether.
They pondered for just a moment on what this little human would endure. They quickly put it out of their minds. Almighty God had spoken.
“Look, Candol,” whispered Anka. “Up in the corner of the room.”
Ever alert, Candol followed Anka’s gaze to the upper corner of the room. What he saw caused his wings to unfurl—legions of demons filled the upper spaces of the room.
Anka immediately touched his cohort’s arm to quiet him. “Let us not reveal our position yet,” he advised Candol. “Let’s see what Almighty God is going to do in this situation,” he concluded as they both drew back into the shadows of their corner.
The Earth-angels prepared themselves for the battle ahead. Considering their position, they observed the demons glaring at the child, hunger in their eyes, venom dripping from their ugly mouths.
Considering the adversary’s minions, Candol and Anka caught a glimpse of the atmosphere surrounding the family who had just received the newborn into their midst. Darkness spread around the family in the spiritual realm, darkness such as these protective Earth-angels had not experienced … at least not for a very long time.
Candol and Anka conferred in their corner of the nursery. Staying in the shadows, they measured their next moves as they sternly gazed at the demons floating in the atmosphere. They did not want to create a disturbance until they knew more of what was going on in the life of this child and had received instruction from on high. But one thing they knew for certain—it had already begun.
