Hierarchy of Angels
A hierarchy of angels is a belief or tradition found in the angelology of different religions, which holds that there are different levels or ranks of angels. Higher ranks may be asserted to have greater power or authority over lower ranks, and with different ranks having differences in appearance, such as varying numbers of wings or faces.

A person that is well known in history that said they had a spiritual being with them is George Washington. He even credited his success at Valley Forge to “an inspiring visit from a heavenly being.” Another person well known in history that spoke of angels is Abraham Lincoln. He often called upon the healing powers and wisdom of the Angels to help guide him and heal the nation in times of death and devastation.
