Bible Verses About Protection

Scripture pictures God as a refuge, fortress, and shield who keeps his people in every danger. Scripture declares: "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." (Psalms 91:1). The Word affirms: "I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust." (Psalms 91:2). As it is written: "He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler." (Psalms 91:4). Dwell in God's presence, trust his covering, and rest secure in his faithful protection.
