Divine Secret Agents

 There are a number of films about heroic agents, secret agents- Jason Bourne of the Bourne franchise movies, Jack Reacher, Ethan Hunt of the Mission Impossible movies, and James Bond of the 007 franchise films amongst others.

James Bond is perhaps the most popular secret agent of the movie world, followed closely by Ethan Hunt of the mission impossible films.

Secret agent characters, true to their job title operate in secrecy, their effectiveness in carrying out their operations is often aided by the element of surprise and secrecy, its in their opponents not knowing who they are or what they are up to as they go about their mission and their assignment.

These secret agent movies entertain us.

Real life secret agents exist, we have spiritual secret agents too.

When I think about the kingdom of heaven, I find we have secret agents from there.

Angels are the secret agents of the kingdom of heaven.

They are secret agents because they minister to and serve the saints, often in secrecy because they are not seen most times. They choose to be invisible.

Their invisibility is essential so as not to disrupt our daily lives and distract us, this way life continues as usual, or so it seems.

We feel their presence at times, we see a manifestation of their handiwork and we know from the scriptures they are around, we accept their ministry to us from God by faith.

They are secret agents of the kingdom of heaven, God's secret agents doing God's will in heaven faithfully and doing God's will on earth loyally.

They don't ask to be seen and they don't want to be seen.

Just like human secret agents, these agents of the kingdom of heaven prefer to carry out their work effectively behind the scenes.

That their operations are being carried out unknown to us in most cases, does not change the fact that their assignments and various missions are full of battles, drama, warfare and perhaps excitement.

Secret agents live very adventurous and interesting lives, they go on very exciting missions, sometimes traveling to the furthest corners of the earth to carry out a service for the nation, kingdom, government or dignitary they represent.

In the same manner, divine secret agents travel through space and realms on behalf of God their King, and the kingdom of heaven to achieve God's aim, plan, and purpose wherever they are sent to and to whomever they are sent.

As we see in spy and secret agent movies, secret agents face resistance and have to fight off opponents and enemies to salvage a situation, save a people, or the world.

That is not far from the truth with divine secret agents fighting off resistance for the sake of the saints, the advancement of the kingdom of God and by the command of the King!

Of course, secret agents as we see in these movies are always equipped with all they need for their mission by the group or nation they represent. They are provided for and taken care of.

 hey have the coolest gadgets, the cars, the money, the clothes, the connection to intelligence and data for the job at hand. These are some of the things that make secret agents so cool and keep us glued to secret agent movies, talk about James Bond!

The divine secret agents of God, even the angels; are also equipped with all they need to do God's will, carry out their mission, and minister to and for the saints!

They receive direction concerning what to tell us, what to do for us, where to go, and how to go about it as they are connected to divine intelligence even God Himself!

They have the 'gadgets' - the wings, the light, the presence, the armor, the sword, the shields, the presence, the wisdom.

They see a lot and experience a lot, as they travel through space, time and realms.

Your heavenly Father's divine secret agents are reliable and equipped. You should be excited.

The saints of God on the earth can operate as secret agents for God too, we should.

We should be about the Father's business!
