ANGELS
NINE TYPES OF ANGELS
Seraphim are only one of the many types of angels.
We may be able to speak directly to God through prayer, but according to the Bible, he reaches us through a variety of angels, each with distinct duties. There are nine types of angels within three major groups known as choirs. Regardless of where they are on the hierarchy, like us, they are individuals.
Unlike us, because they are able to see far beyond a mortal timeline, they are extremely patient and forgiving. They are aware of our personal life goals and are assigned to assist us, but never interfere with our free will. Here are nine types of angels to know.
Seraphim
Cherubim (Plural of Cherub)
Thrones
Dominions or Dominations
Virtues
Powers
Principalities
Archangels
Angels
1. Seraphim
Seraphim means "the fiery ones." It is the plural of the word "seraph." These angels are mentioned in the Bible as having faces, hands and feet. Each seraph has six wings, four of which they used to cover themselves in the presence of God as a sign of humility; the other two, they use to fly. They cry out "holy, holy, holy" and appear to worship God continuously. They are often depicted in religious art.
2. Cherubim (Plural of Cherub)
These are the angels who are closest to God. They encircle his throne and emit an intense fiery light representing his love. Seraphim are considered "fiery serpents" and not even the other divine beings may look at them. There are only four of them and each has four faces and six wings. When they come to Earth, they leave their serpent appearance behind, preferring tall, thin, clean-cut human embodiments.

3. Thrones
These angels are the keepers of celestial records and hold the knowledge of God. They are sent to Earth with great tasks, such as expelling humankind from the Garden of Eden. Ancient art depicts cherubim as sphinx-like, winged creatures with human faces, not the fat babies with wings that now grace greeting cards and book covers. Ophaniel, Rikbiel, and Zophiel are cherubim, as was Satan before his fall to evil.
4. Dominions or Dominations
Thrones' appearance is perhaps the most bizarre of the first grouping. They are said to look like great glowing wheels covered with many eyes. They serve as God's chariot and dispense his judgment in order to carry out his desires for us. The angels in the second choir can exist in a state of transition between the celestial and human worlds. They are considered heavenly governors, attempting to strike a balance between matter and spirit, good and bad.
Under the highest angelic forms lay the 'middle' angels. Read on to find out more about the virtues, archangels and guardian angels.
5. Virtues
Think of dominions as middle management. They receive orders from seraphim and cherubim, then dish out duties to the "worker bee" angels of the lower orders. Their main purpose is to make sure that the cosmos remains in order by sending down power to heads of government and other authority figures. Zadkiel (sometimes called Hashmal) is the chief of this order.
6. Powers
Shaped like sparks of light, virtues are in charge of maintaining the natural world, and they inspire living things in areas such as science. They also take orders from the angels above and convert them into miracles for the deserving. When they make themselves known to us in their earthly form, they are musicians, artists, healers, and scientists who work with the power of love, as well as physics. The two angels at the ascension of Jesus are believed to have been virtues.

7. Principalities
In their celestial form, powers appear like brightly colored, hazy fumes. Powers are border patrol agents between heaven and Earth. They are the angels of birth and death. Some believe that they also preside over demons who wish to overthrow the world, while others, namely St. Paul, thought the powers themselves were the evil ones. In any case, powers are a group of experts who serve as advisers in terms of religion, theology, and ideology.
The third choir is best known to us because they are most like us with their vulnerability to the act of sinning.
8. Archangels
These angelic beings are shaped like rays of light. Just like a principal in school, it's the principalities who oversee everything. They guide our entire world -- nations, cities, and towns. What's more, they are in charge of religion and politics. As if their plate isn't full enough, they are also in charge of managing the earthly duties of the angels below them.
But don't call on them to help you personally; archangels respond best when dealing with matters involving all humankind. They are the first order of angels that appear only in human form. As such, they function among us as pioneers for change in the form of explorers, philosophers, and human rights leaders. This order is most commonly known because they are mentioned by name in the Bible -- Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael.
9. Angels
These might just be called "regular angels." They are guardians of people and all things physical and are the most common type of angels. These angels are sent as messengers to humanity. Personal guardian angels come from this category. Angels may also protect and warn humans as well as act as warriors on behalf of God.

Questions
How can we get the angels assigned to us working...how do we activate them?....
and how many angels are assigned to believers?
And how can we increase the number.
Answer
Angels assigned to believers is depending on the urgency of your assignment... There is no fixed figure, it's varies depending on the neccessity of one's assignment.
Secondly, the increase of man's angelic ministry is posed on the fulfilment and committement in that which God has called you to function, so as you move in the light of your assignment diligently and in committement, more supplies comes for higher results.
So many has lost their prophetic Angels because the refuse to function in that office, and has left the Angel assigned for that purpose to be inactive.....
This isn't the plans of God.
Questions 2
Still on these discussion of spirit.
Are demons different from evil spirit?
If yes, how did each came about?
Answer
Now... Understand that from these divisions of Angel some from each division left with Lucifer....
Powers and principalities are of two sets....
So demons are fallen divine beings, while evil Spirit are disembodied set of Angels called the watchers.
So in Ephesians 6:11-12 and Colossians 2:15 the writer address was channeled to the negative principalities and power of the evil Age.
The systems of God can't be uttered.... All division of Angels has their functions which can't be bicourted.
