Where is God when you are afraid? Scripture answers with some of its most comforting promises — that God sees you, watches over you, plans good for you, shelters you, defends you, delivers you, and covers you with the blood of His Son.
This study walks through seven Bible promises of God’s care and protection, in the voice of Joseph S. Olarewaju. Watch the full teaching below, or take it one short chapter at a time.

The 7 Promises
1. You Are the Apple of His Eye (Zechariah 2:8)
“The one who touches you touches the apple of His eye.” God calls His people the most precious, carefully guarded part — you are cherished, and you live under His watchful protection.
Zechariah 2:8
2. The God Who Never Sleeps (Psalm 121:4)
“He who keeps Israel will neither slumber nor sleep.” While you rest, God is wide awake, watching over your life every moment — so you can rest without fear.
Psalm 121:4
3. Plans to Give You Hope and a Future (Jeremiah 29:11)
God’s thoughts toward you are thoughts of peace, to give you a future and a hope. Even when you cannot see the path, He is leading — His intentions are good.
Jeremiah 29:11
4. Shelter Under His Wings (Psalm 91:4)
“He will cover you with His feathers… His faithful promises are your armor.” God’s protection is close, tender, and personal — a shelter in the middle of the storm.
Psalm 91:4
5. No Weapon Formed Against You (Isaiah 54:17)
Weapons may be formed, but they shall not prosper. Accusation is not the highest court — God is your righteous judge and defender, and His verdict over you stands.
Isaiah 54:17
6. Deliverance Through Prayer (Psalm 91:3)
“He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler.” Prayer is how you step into Psalm 91’s protection — and asking God for wisdom to avoid hidden danger matters as much as asking for safety.
Psalm 91:3
7. The Power of the Blood of Jesus (Revelation 12:11)
The blood of Jesus is the ultimate covering — redemption, victory, and peace. “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony.”
Revelation 12:11
You Are Deeply Cared For
From the apple of His eye to the blood of His Son, the message of Scripture is steady and tender: you are not forgotten, not unguarded, and not alone. Let these seven truths anchor your heart in the faithful care of God.
