We are living in the days of wars and rumors of wars, one country is fighting against another country. People are losing their lives and properties, and economic collapse, hunger, and starvation have become the norm. So many are afraid for their lives.
Insecurity and lack of protection are seen among us. Our military men are worried and concerned about the present situation in the country. Families of the militaries are worried about the safety of their spouses.
In such a period as this, we need to anchor our trust in God’s word to find confidence in our lives. For He will never leave us nor forsake us, He will always guide and protect us in the midst of any difficult situation.
These are some Bible verses that will help us understand that His protection is upon our lives:
