1 Chronicles 16-20: Verse of the Day

"[God] permitted no man to oppress them, and he reporved kings for their sakes, saying, 'Do not touch My anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm" (1 Chron 16:21-22).

To Israel, God provided physical protection. As Christians, we know with certainty from those of the first century that physical protection is not our guarantee. In fact, our call is to suffer with Christ as we are His body. However, we have this same promise of protection spiritually. We're told that nothing can take away our salvation apart from our own unfaithfulness to God. Satan is unable to rip it out of my grasp. None can invalidate my home with God. Praise the Lord for our protection.
