We all need God’s divine protection in our lives.
And that’s because we are powerless on our own.
We are just humans and only see the physical battles in front of us.
But in reality, there is an unseen spiritual battle going on every day of our lives.
Apostle Paul said,
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
That’s why we must always seek God’s power of protection.
God has promised to always stand by the righteous.
He has promised never to leave us in times of trouble.
And what about your unknown enemies who try to hurt you and your family.
Even worse are your fake friends that are willing to harm and destroy you.
But, do not fear.
We serve a living God that is capable of protecting us.
God is willing to protect you from all evil plans against you and your household.
God is also able to protect your loved ones and your friends.
I have compiled bible verses about protection from your enemies to inspire you.

The story of Daniel is a reminder, Do not be afraid
The story of Daniel is one that can inspire you to always trust in God for protection.
He can save you even in impossible times
Daniel was a servant to God but served under the king of Babylon.
Over the years, he has gradually risen in the ranks of the kingdom.
So, he had enemies that wanted to kill him.
They became jealous of Daniel and deceived the king into making a new decree that anyone who prayed to any other God, besides the king, will be thrown into the lion’s den.
And despite knowing that his enemies had a plan to prosecute and kill him, Daniel continued in God’s worship.
He kept praying to God with his windows opened to Jerusalem.
Quickly, these wicked administrators reported Daniel to the king, and he was thrown into the lion’s den.
Very early in the morning, the king rushed out to the den to see if Daniel was still alive.
He called unto Daniel, saying,
“Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to rescue you from the lions?”
And Daniel replied,
My God sent his angel, and he shut the mouths of the lions. They have not hurt me, because I was found innocent in his sight. Nor have I ever done any wrong before you, Your Majesty.”
Therefore, Always trust in God’s protection power.
