The Glories of the Holy Angels

The power of the Angels is incredible--one alone of these blessed spirits being able to defeat millions of armed men--nay, the whole world put together. We are told in the Book of Kings, that an Angel slew in one night 85,000 of the Assyrians, the enemies of the people of God. They can make the winds blow, the rain fall, the thunder roar: they can raise tempests, cause earthquakes, give abundance and famine, cure and inflict all sorts of maladies, and operate many other things, almost in a moment.
