Today is day 216 and we are on the section The Seventh Petition: "But deliver us from evil".

216. What are angels?

Angels are rational, spiritual beings created by God. God’s holy angels joyfully serve him in heavenly worship, and God appoints them to act as messengers, bringing words of guidance and assurance to the faithful, and assisting and protecting them. (Numbers 22:21–31; Psalm 148:1–6; Isaiah 6:2–3; Luke 1:19, 26–33; Acts 12:7–11; Hebrews 1:7–14; 13:2)

We will conclude today with The Collect for Holy Michael and All Angels found on page 632 in the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
