What does the Bible say about God's protection of His people?

Answered in 11 sources

The Bible assures us that God protects His people, as seen in 2 Kings 6, where Elisha reassures his servant that those with them are more than their enemies.

In 2 Kings 6, we see a powerful illustration of God's protection through the life of Elisha. As the king of Syria plots against Israel, Elisha warns the king of Israel, exemplifying how God actively protects His people from harm. The servant of Elisha fears their impending doom when surrounded by an enemy army, yet Elisha comforts him by stating, 'Fear not, for they that be with us are more than they that be with them' (2 Kings 6:16). This passage illustrates the truth of God's sovereignty and omnipotence, reassuring believers that no matter the circumstances, God's protective will prevails over all threats against His people.
