Divine Protection in Disguise

Scripture: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.” – Romans 8:28 (NIV)

As I reflect on all that God has protected me from, I am in awe. There were times when life didn’t go the way I hoped—doors closed, plans unraveled, relationships ended, and opportunities slipped away. At the moment, I was frustrated, disappointed, and even questioned God. I couldn’t see what He was doing behind the scenes.

But now, with clearer eyes and a heart full of gratitude, I understand: those “unanswered” prayers were answered in the most powerful way—through protection. God saved me from decisions that would have led to destruction. He shielded me from detours that looked good but would have stolen my peace, purpose, and joy.

Today, I walk in a life I never imagined—one filled with peace, clarity, and alignment with His will. Had those situations turned out differently, I may have been living in regret. Instead, I am living in grace.

Prayer:

Lord, thank You for every “no” that was really a greater “yes.” Thank You for protecting me even when I didn’t know I needed it. Help me to trust Your plan, even when I don’t understand it, and to walk forward in peace, knowing You are always working for my good. Amen.
