Have you ever had the experience of driving down the road and an accident happens behind or next to you? You may have thought that you were just fortunate to have missed the damage. But could something more have been at work? Perhaps, you need to consider that God saw the danger coming and moved you in a way to miss the trouble. Sometimes, we go through life so busy that we fail to consider loftier notions and important truths.
Psalm 28:7 says, “The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.” As our shield, God defends, guards, protects, safeguards, and keeps us secure from danger. But He also, intervenes in imminent danger before it can harm us. If we ignore or reject His presence, we are in danger of nullifying His protection and proceeding directly into trouble.
