God Protects His Servants

Today's Verse is Job 1:10
Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

When we accept the work Jesus Christ has done on the cross and receive by that forgiveness of our sins, we also enter into the protection God gives to his own, which we see here of Job. Nothing happened to Job that God did not first approve, and signed off on, as we see again in Chapter 2: "although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause." We also see this protection with the apostle Paul: "Be not afraid, but speak, and hold not thy peace: For I am with thee, and no man shall set on thee to hurt thee: for I have much people in this city." So we need not to fear for our safety, if we are seeking to do God's bidding, and what we risk, we do not risk in vain, for as he as promised to never leave nor forsake us, so too are we never far from his loving protection, nor from his guiding hand. Amen.
