I have not studied up enough on Angels to give a Biblical Answer, which I doubt I ever could no matter how much I studied. I don't believe any human could, but here is a link that may shed some light. When you open the link scroll down a little and you will see the topic stating something about are angels good.

May God be with you!
There are three levels of angels and three types of angels within each level. The first triad holds the seraphim, cherubim, and thrones, with the object of contemplating the perfection and glory of God. The second triad is made up of dominations, virtues, and powers, and is concerned with the plurality of universal causes, that is they are concerned with the ordering of the Universe (hence they are termed angels of creation). The third triad holds the principalities, archangels, and angels, with the function of ordering specific causes, meaning that they are taken up with the most minute ordering of the universe. One of their chief functions is to care for the welfare of humanity. It is always good to pray to your angel (pray = dialog) and thank them for all they do for you. And don't for get to thank God for giving you your own special guide! God bless you!

I am sorry but nowhere in the Bible does it tell us to pray to angels. We are told there is one God and He is a jelous God. Angels are sent by God to watch over us but we have to give God all the Glory and honour not angels. If you worship angels , you are worshipping false Gods. We can thank God for sending angels to protect us but we do not pray to angels.

We can never know for sure. The word we so often translate to angels can also mean simply "messengers", and doesn't necessitate heavenly beings.

Indeed according to the scriptures the angels and the apostles themselves refused any worship, adoration and/or pray for all glory goes to God and :
1Ti 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; |
