Angels are very real and I will show some scriptures that will show that Angels are real. For what is written in the Bible is true and when you believe the truth you will no longer fear.
For it says in Proverbs 1:7: The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Since we don't know the Lord of course we are going to be afraid of His power, but once you get to know Him, you will see the Love He has for you. All you need in the knowledge and don't be a fool and not know. So we go to Psalm 91:
Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty. This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him. For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease. He will cover you with his feathers. He will shelter you with his wings. His faithful promises are your armor and protection. Do not be afraid of the terrors of the night, nor the arrow that flies in the day. Do not dread the disease that strikes at midday. Though a thousand fall at your side, though ten thousand are dying around you, these evils will not touch you. Just open your eyes, and see how the wicked are punished. If you make the Lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. For he will order his angels to protect you wherever you go. They will hold you up with their hands so you won't even hurt your foot on a stone. You will trample upon lions and cobras; you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet! The lord says, "I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation."
Now when it said "I will hold you up with their hands so you won't even hurt your foot on a stone.", is where Satan tried to tempt Jesus into proving that He was the Son of God. Jesus wouldn't prove it because He didn't need too. God doesn't need our help to prove Himself, if He wanted to that He is real then He would, but He doesn't because He wants us to believe and love Him through Faith. That is more powerful than seeing and believing. Through the whole time that Jesus was taken to get crucified He could have called upon His Father to stop the cruelness that was happening to Him, but He didn't....why? Jesus knew that if He asked to be saved then we wouldn't be able to be saved from our sins, we would be lost to the Lord. Jesus loved us that much to die, so that we can have eternal life.
God protects the children that believe and trust in Him. We all have Angels looking in on us 24/7, and they will intervene when it is needed, most of the time you won't even now it. Angel's saved Daniel (Shadrach) when he and two other of his friends where thrown into a fire. The men that threw the men into the fire end up dieing from the heat, but Daniel (Shadrach) and his other friends stood up and walked out. The King thought he threw three men into the fire but he saw four unharmed men, and the fourth looked like a God. The King saw that the fire did not touch them. Not a hair on their heads was singed, and their clothing was not scorched. They didn't even smell like smoke. This is from Daniel 3:19-30, later in chapter 6: 16-28 talks how God send his Angels again to save Daniel from the Lions den. See Daniel had his faith in the Lord and trusted God to protect him, and that He did.
Peter escapes from prison that Herod the king has placed him in. Herod killed James the brother of John with the sword. Herod say that it pleased the Jews so he imprisoned Peter (this took place during the Passover celebration). Herod placed four squads of four soldiers each, and after the Passover he was bring Peter out for public trial (death). While Peter waited in prison, the church prayed very earnestly for him. Acts 12:6-10: The night before Peter was to be placed on trial (death), he was asleep, fastened with two chains between two soldiers. Others stood guard at the prison gate. Suddenly, there was a bright light in the cell, and an angel of the Lord stood before Peter. The angel struck him on the side to awaken him and said, "Quick! Get up!" And the chains fell off his wrists. Then the angel told him, "Get dressed and put on your sandals." And he did. "Now put on your coat and follow me," the angel ordered. So Peter left the cell, following the angel. But all the time he thought it was a vision. He didn't realize it was actually happening. They passed the first and second guard posts and came to the iron gate leading to the city, and this opened for them all by itself. So they passed through and started walking down the street, and then the angel suddenly left him.
Now do you think that if you had fear in you that you would be able to sleep soundly the night before your death? No. Peter had full faith in the Lord, he wasn't afraid to die. For if he died then he will be going home to his Father God. So have complete faith in the Lord, and trust that He will be there to protect you. Know the Lord and no longer be afraid of Him, but love Him, for He loves you.
