Psalm 91:11 (KJV)
Introduction
Fireworks can bring joy and celebration, but they can also be dangerous if not handled properly. Today, we explore an incident where a firework malfunctioned but the people involved were miraculously unharmed.
Devotional Story
There was a time when a group of friends decided to celebrate with some fireworks. They had an old launcher, one that had seen many celebrations over the years. As they lit the firework, expecting a beautiful display in the sky, things took a turn for the worse. The launcher, due to its age and wear, split in half. The firework exploded not in the sky, but on the ground, right where the friends were standing.
It was a terrifying moment. The sound was deafening, and the explosion scattered sparks and debris everywhere. The friends fell to the ground, bracing for the worst. Yet, when the smoke cleared, they were astonished to find that none of them were hurt. Despite the chaos, they were safe.
What This Means
This incident is a powerful reminder of God’s protection over us. Just as the friends were kept safe despite the dangerous situation, God watches over us and keeps us from harm. It may not always be in such dramatic fashion, but His protection is ever-present. When we trust in Him, we can find peace even in the midst of the storm.
Think About This
Have you ever experienced a close call where you felt protected? How can you remind yourself of God’s presence and protection in your daily life? Consider how you can trust Him more deeply, knowing that He watches over you.
Prayer
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your constant protection and care. We are grateful for Your angels who watch over us and keep us safe. Help us to trust in Your protection and to find peace in Your presence, no matter what situations we face. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Closing Verse
“The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.”
Psalm 34:7 (KJV)
