4 How to Ask an Angel for Help, in Any Situation

One of the secrets of manifesting with angels is saying “Thank You” in advance of the wish being granted, trusting they will intervene to help you.

Aside from the courtesy of this, thanking your angels in advance of their assistance shows that you have complete faith that they can deliver what you are asking for. This is how manifesting works; your faith takes away any feelings of desperation or neediness that can get in the way of receiving. When you are needy, your vibration is lower than when you are feeling confident, calm, and believing. When you trust, you are not only trusting your angels to deliver, but also trusting yourself and the universe to meet your needs, guide you, and keep you safe. If you think you have problems with trust, consider how easy—or not—it is for you to ask for help from others. Do you have to be the one being the helper, and do you find it easier to give than to receive?

Not being able to accept support from others can indicate a lack of self-belief, seeing everyone else as more deserving. If you often feel small, ask your angels to empower you before you ask for your main wish. When you feel empowered, it’s easier to trust; and when you trust yourself and your angels to do the right thing, your manifesting will be all the more effective. You can make your own dreams come true—with a little angelic help.

HOW TO ASK

* Ground and protect yourself, and open up (see pages 9–10). Really tune in to your angels’ vibrations as they join you.

* Begin to set up a feeling of trust. If you find this difficult, begin by saying: “My Angels, please help me trust myself and you; give me the confidence to make my wish.” Let the vibration of this request sit with you for a minute or two. Now push the vibration outward into your energy field. Feel the vibration expanding and growing stronger, and sense that you are feeling bigger.

* Ask your angels to grant whatever wish you have with genuine good feeling. What would it be like to have your wish granted? See yourself experiencing this, feeling happy, relieved, inspired.

* Now say “Thank you for making my wish come true.” Your wish is with the angels and the universe, so step back and even try to forget about it for a time. Let your angels do their work. This way of asking your angels works for whatever request you have, wherever you are.

Whenever you ask your angels for help, remember: Feel it (emotions), sense it (using your senses), ask, say “thank you,” and let go.

Provided your intentions are true, and your wish will not harm any other person or creature, your angels will help. You don’t have to need something big or be in a crisis to ask your angels for guidance. Ask your angels when sitting by your angel altar; ask for a parking space when you’re driving (see Tip 29); ask when you’re at your desk or on your feet at work; ask when you’re walking alone. Just ask.
