She draws on Heb 1:14 and Psalm 91:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\"For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways.\" <cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Psalm+91:11&amp;version=UKR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ps 91:11<\/a><\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>White wrote that angels are invisibly present in danger, in temptations, in illness \u2014 and that their ministry corresponds to God\u2019s providence, not human desires.<\/p>\n<h2>Angels and the great controversy<\/h2>\n<p>In the context of the great controversy, angels are active participants in the conflict between Christ and Satan. They are not neutral observers: <b>they serve the interests of the Kingdom of God<\/b>, protecting and supporting those who have chosen Christ\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, White warned: angelic protection is not a magical shield from all consequences. God permits trials as a means of spiritual growth. Angels support, but they do not remove the cross.<\/p>\n<h2>Angels and prayer<\/h2>\n<p>White emphasized that prayer opens the way for angelic ministry. She did not teach praying to angels, but showed that when a person turns to God, He answers through various means \u2014 and angels are one of them.<\/p>\n<h2>Practical meaning<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Angels are real, and their presence is grounds for courage in danger.<\/li>\n<li>They do not serve automatically, but within the bounds of God\u2019s plan and in response to the prayer of the faithful.<\/li>\n<li>This teaching deepens respect for each person in the church: he or she is not alone.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>White spoke simply: beside every disciple of Christ is an angel.
