Something to dwell on for a second.
Natural is physical, limited, it has its extents. When we consider “supernatural” it is an occurence out of THIS world…
We read extensively on occurrences in The Word. An angel is a supernatural being in various religions and mythologies. Abrahamic religions often depict them as benevolent celestial intermediaries between God (or Heaven) and humanity. Other roles include protectors and guides for humans, and servants of God.
The idea of seven archangels is most explicitly stated in the deuterocanonical Book of Tobit when Raphael reveals himself, declaring: “I am Raphael, one of the seven angels who stand in the glorious presence of the Lord, ready to serve him.” (Tobit 12:15) The other two archangels mentioned by name in the Bible are Michael and Gabriel. The four names of the other archangels come from tradition.

These are angels! The Essence of The Creator? It was spoken to Moses “But,” he said, “you cannot see My face, for no one may see Me and live.” Exodus 33:20
We tread lightly here. The Essence of God covers ALL. Being of and from The Creator denotes an awesome fear…
The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground. Genesis 18:1-2
I looked up and there before me was a man dressed in linen, with a belt of fine gold from Uphaz around his waist. Daniel 10:5

And the servants of God instill this fear and respect…. The Essence of God???
https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Prostration
“Laying face down or prostrate”
131 times: ‘Laying face down or prostrate’ in relation to prayer or speaking with God.
This includes many times that the word prostrate is not used but the person is on their face or laying down etc.
256 times the word prostrate is used in the Bible. Most of these are times when one prostrates himself or herself before a king or someone of great importance. This was the common way of respect and to honor someone. People were very familiar with this word and position.
There is no question as to the meaning of the word in Hebrew in the Old Testament or Greek in the New Testament, however translators have sought to use different words in English to interpret the word.
Your proper prayer posture isn’t the position of your body, but of your heart and spirit…
To a humble spirit… it’s about humility.
