31 Scriptures On God’s Protection will remind you of God’s faithfulness and promises towards His children.
Like most of God’s promises, there is also a condition we must oblige to.
Recently, a series of negative events happened to me and my family.
From the second incident, I immediately started praying to ask the Lord to protect us.
Nothing as serious as that God had allowed happening to Job, and that was also the thing that gave me consolation.
God did allow tragedy to happen to Job, but He was also there in the midst of the storm, He knew about every trial and tribulation, and He rewarded Job for staying faithful to Him.
If you are reading this article because you have a need for God’s protection, I am asking you to remember Job, God in the background, and to stay faithful to God.
Psalm 91 is very powerful to pray for protection, and seeing that the Psalm covers every area, I did not want to break it up into pieces.
May these 31 Scriptures On God’s Protection fill you with renewed hope and endurance to finish the race with your eyes on Jesus.
