In a dream, I saw shadows of men with army rifles moving back and forth as if searching for people in a war zone and knew I was in another country. I did hear shots which put fear in me and I turned around to run and I saw three people dressed in white scrubs, who quickly told me to come with them. They lead me away from the fighting. As we were running I was trying to keep up with them, and had the thought "They are really fast!". They then turned quickly onto another block and I saw a big white vehicle and had the thought that it looked like a very extravagant ambulance-military vehicle, and the thought of it being a Presidential vehicle. The men made it to the Van and then disappeared, along with the vehicle, and I yelled out, "Hey, don't leave me!" I stopped and was crying at first, and then I spoke with confidence, "Those were Angels, and they helped me!" and woke relieved that I was alright. I wrote the details down and thought about how it was a very scary situation to be in. Later that day, I was listening to the news and they were talking about happenings in Israel another country and it was not good. As I listened, I thought of the dream, and felt the need to intercede for our Country and President, knowing it had been a warning dream so I prayed through the day.
Many people believe angels have played a significant role in keeping them safe during difficult situations. These stories and promises in the Word find a way into our hearts sparking faith and hope in God, who shows how much He cares by charging His angels to keep us safe.
Warring angels or princes' of heaven are to help the children of God in extreme, dangerous situations (2 Kings 6:18-19); such as the time Elisha stood on the side of a mountain with the Syrian army surrounding him. The King of Syria had ordered the demise of Elisha.

We read about the mighty princes’ battle to bring Daniel’s answers to his three weeks of fasting and prayer (Daniel 10:11-15). These strong angels are organized into principalities and powers, sitting on thrones (Colossians 1:16; 2:18; Romans 8:38; Ephesians 6:10-18; 1 Peter 3:22). They drive spirit horses (2 Kings 2:11-12) and guard gates (Revelation 21:12).
Warring angels wage war in actual combat engagement (Revelation 12:7-9; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10) with angels ruling the nations (Daniel 10:13-21; 12:1). The stronger angels will bind Satan after Armageddon (Revelation 20) and other angels are responsible for guarding the abyss (Revelation 20:1-3).
There are angles who lift up and strengthen the saints during times of trial (Matthew 4:11; Luke 22:43). These are also the angels who are dispatched to lead sinners to gospel workers when the sinners’ hearts are ready (Acts 10:3).
Angelic beings can appear in our dreams to give us God’s directions (Matthew 1:20-24).
Angels are discerning and wise, and they are swift travelers. (Daniel 9:21; Rev. 14:8)
Angels are discerning and wise, and they are swift travelers. (Daniel 9:21; Rev. 14:8)
The angels are busy in the re-gathering of Jews to Israel. Thus, the angels also help in bringing about the fulfillment of biblical prophecy (Matthew 24:31).
Angels will accompany Christ back to earth during His second coming riding spirit horses (Matthew 16:27; 25:31; 2 Thessalonians 1:7-10).
Angels are the silent witnesses to the confessions of men. (Luke 15:8-9).
God’s laws are given by the angels (Acts 7:53; Hebrew 2:2)
The tree of life is guarded by angels (Genesis 3:24).
Men’s revelations are given by the angels of God (2 Kings 1:15; Daniel 8:19; 9:21-23; 10:10-20).
They impart God’s will as they are obedient to Him (Acts 5:19-20; 10:1-6).
It is important to remember that the unseen army of our protection stands all around us: "Don't be afraid!" Elisha told him. "For there are more on our side than on theirs!" (2 Kings 6:16; Romans 8:31; Psalm 118:6; Hebrews 13:6). ~All About GOD
