A lot of evil stuff goes on within human interactions that are mysterious, unsearchable and unexplainable; this stuff happens on the stage of political and international intrigues and terror plots, within small groups and communities of a few people, and even within the depths of one individual. Danger and threat lurk underneath spoken words and secret plans which can’t be traced: “Where did that come from? How did that happen?” Both international wars and family fights threaten to erupt from unknown causes.
The Bible exposes the invisible world of demons and the evil depths of the human heart. Evil enemies think no one knows the source or can see what’s really going on; and that is usually true. But our God knows and sees and He will take action against the secret evil demonic forces that pose threats; He shoots arrows that never miss their mark.
The believer, knowing God knows and sees and cares, trusts his Lord and prays for Him to preserve his life from dread of the enemy. God secretly moves in and destroys the destroyers. The one who takes refuge in Him rejoices in the victory; he can’t explain what happened but he knows who did it.
