Because you are at the center of God’s protection, God will not allow anything get to you unless it first comes through Him. You are protected by Him. And He knows what you can endure and what will break you. This is the reason that a Christian can say, “God won’t put more on us than we can handle.” A good earthly Father will not intentionally give something to their child that would damage or destroy them. Matthew 7:11 confirms this: “If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?” In other words, everything that comes to us as His children is Father filtered. As we live in the protective circle of God, nothing can come to us that does not come through Him first. God has a good plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11), and will not allow more than we can handle.
But there is a caveat, a condition, to this. We must remain in the circle of God’s protection to claim this. We must be obedient children, walking in the Spirit and not in the flesh. If you choose to live outside that protective circle of God, you become open to any and all attacks from the enemy, and you will face things you cannot handle. Let us live in the circle of God’s protective care.
