Great list!

 

Looking at #8 I wondered why we needed protection from the angels?  LOL

 

 

 

Answer, Not all angels are good ones!

 

Just can't wait for the New World!

Ps 34:7 The angel of Jehovah is camping all around those fearing him,

And he rescues them.

I think the "from" is in - help or protection comes from the angels, but I suppose we do get a lot of protection - so demons don't hurt us either.
