The scriptures are full of verses that tell us about the protection of God. As human beings, we need God’s protection to keep us from all harm.
God is able to prevent any evil or destruction from touching us but as we have been given free will in an evil world, we are prone to make mistakes in our choices.
God’s protection comes to us in the form of peace and strength in the middle of despair.
Many times when we pray and seek God’s protection, it comes as a warning that something is on the horizon that we cannot see.
