How do we know that God keeps us from falling?

Answered in 4 sources

We know God keeps us from falling through His grace and the ministry of the Word, which anchors us in truth.

The assurance that God keeps us from falling can be gleaned from multiple scriptural affirmations of His faithfulness and sustaining grace. As reflected in Romans 5:10 and Psalm 121, God continually reaches down to save and support His people, drawing them closer to Himself. The ministry of the Word plays a critical role in this preservation, as noted in Acts 6:4, where the apostles committed themselves to prayer and the ministry of the Word. By such means, God ensures that we remain anchored in Christ, likening this to how Paul expressed his own confidence in 2 Timothy 1:12, claiming that he knew the One whom he believed and was persuaded of His ability to keep him. Thus, our confidence in God’s preserving power is built upon the solid foundation of His Word and the promise of His ongoing work within us.
