What does the Bible say about divine preservation?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that God's goodness and mercy ensure the divine preservation of His people throughout their lives.

In Psalm 23:6, we see a declaration of God's divine preservation, stating, 'Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.' This assurance reflects God's unchanging character as a good and merciful deity, who is committed to keeping His people safe. The source of this preservation lies in God Himself, whose goodness directly relates to His merciful nature. Throughout Scripture, we see a consistent theme of God's commitment to preserving His people; as the psalmist notes in Psalm 119:68, 'Thou art good, and doest good.' Therefore, divine preservation is rooted in God's intrinsic goodness and mercy, ensuring that His people are kept safe and secure.
