John 10:28-30 tells us that no one can snatch us out of the hand of the Father. Everyone shares a desire to feel safe. It’s one of the reasons people will move to a safer community because they want to have peace of mind or feel protected. The Bible tells us, however, that GOD has promised to protect us as Jesus stated in John 10:28-30.
GOD wants to put that boundary fence around us and our lives to shield us from the hands of the enemy and destruction. Job 1:10, “Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has? You have blessed the work of his hands so that his flocks and herds are spread throughout the land.”
When we stand for GOD and do His will, He will provide that hedge of protection around our lives and the lives of our family members, as He has promised to protect us from the things meant to harm us. He will watch over us and provide shelter even in our times of trouble. He will surely keep us, especially when we are under attack from the enemy.
Father, I ask that You build a hedge of protection around us, like that which surrounded Job. LORD, help us to keep that hedge repaired and the gate locked so that the devil and his minions have no access or means to breach except by Your expressed will. In Jesus’ name, I pray. AMEN.
