W hile water-skiing on the Navesink River in New Jersey when I was eighteen, I had one of my early experiences with angels. It was a beautiful day and I was headed out toward the ocean. Suddenly I realized that I had entered another dimension. I could see not thousands but millions of angels.

I saw that they were my friends, brothers and sisters, spiritual companions. I also realized that I had a calling from God and that I would be shown what to do in order to fulfill it. And I knew that I would never be alone because the angels would always be with me.

That vision stayed with me through my college years as I searched for greater contact with the angels and other beings of light. In 1961 I met Mark Prophet, who would become both my teacher and my husband. Mark was able to receive inspired revelations from the angels and from other spiritual beings known as Ascended Masters. I realized it was also my calling to receive these revelations, which are called dictations.

Mark passed on in 1973 and I have continued his work through The Summit Lighthouse, the spiritual organization he founded. Between us, we have taken thousands of dictations, which are the source of the angel quotations and many of the prayers in this book.

During years of communing with the angels, I have developed a personal relationship with them. They are always nearthey whisper words of warning, guidance and encouragement. I know that Archangel Michael and his blue-flame angels have saved me and my family from serious harm dozens of times. And my angel secretaries even help me to organize my days.

In the following pages you will learn how you can develop your own relationship with the angels or expand the contact that you already have with them. The angels want to be a part of your life. They are ready to help you solve problems, big and small, and bring you closer to your Higher Selfyour real, or spiritual, self.

Just follow the steps outlined here and the angels will take charge. You may not see them as they fly thick and fast about your business, but you will see the results as they respondsometimes faster than you can ask for help!

NOTE: All the stories in this book are real. Some names, however, have been changed at the individuals request.

E veryone has heard angel stories. Angels pull people back from the edges of cliffs and out of the paths of oncoming trains. They warn people to avoid dangerous situations. They guide those facing tough decisions. They comfort, enlighten and heal.

But how can you get the angels to help you? You are about to learn how to develop a relationship with the angels so that when you call, they answer. Youll read how people have used specific techniques to receive angelic guidance and inspiration. And how the angels go to work for them, handling everything from the mundane details of life to miracle cures to highway rescue.

Take Alex, who lost control of his car on an icy road. As he slid toward a precipice, he called to Archangel Michael. His car immediately moved back into the middle of the roadalmost as if it had been pushed by hand. Then there was Verlene, who got angelic assistance when she went blank while taking a test.

The first thing to consider is: What are angels and why do they answer our prayers?

Angels are to God what sunbeams are to the sun. God created the angels to serve and minister to us. Answering our prayers is their reason for being. Although we live in the material world, we have a special link to God through his angels. And we each have a part of God, a divine spark, within us that allows us to ask the angels for helpand to expect results!

As long as what you are asking them to do is positive and will not hurt others or interfere with your life plan, the angels will answer your call. Not only can you ask them to help you personally but you can also direct themeven command themto perform larger tasks, like stopping crime and saving children from violence and drugs.

The angels are literally waiting for you to give them assignments. For there is one rule they seldom break. They dont intervene in our world unless we ask them to. Keep that in mind as you study this ten-point plan for getting the angels to work for you.

For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

Psalm 91:11

Make room in your life for angels

The angels live in the world of Spirit, the heaven-world, and we live in the world of matter. Angels naturally gravitate toward their home. So if you want the angels to feel comfortable with you, you need to make your worldyour thoughts, feelings and surroundingsmore like theirs. To paraphrase the Epistle of James: Draw near to the angels and they will draw near to you.

The angels are comfortable with thoughts of peace and love, not with irritation and aggression. You may not be able to put out of your mind the rude driver who cut in front of you on your way home. But you can free yourself from the irritation, starting by communing with the angels for just a few minutes a day.
