Bus Protected From Harm

Recently, some of us from our care group went on a holiday to see the northern lights. Before and during the trip, we prayed for protection every day.

One morning during the trip, the road was slightly icy as we set off for our next destination. Along the way, the bus driver heard a noise coming from under the bus and decided to stop to check on it. As he slowed down towards the road shoulder, the bus suddenly began to skid and started sliding towards the edge of the cliff!

But praise the Lord, the bus came to a complete stop next to a small pile of snow—just metres away from the drop, with some snow also sliding down into the frozen lake below!

Those who had been sleeping suddenly woke up and asked, “What happened?” The bus driver quickly got out to put on snow chains on the tyres to prevent further skidding. We all prayed, and by God’s grace, the driver was able to drive the bus out safely!

After returning home, we found out that our care group had specifically prayed for us that morning. Perhaps the Holy Spirit had prompted them to pray at that very moment.

A heartfelt thank you to our care group for praying for us. Thank you, pastors, for constantly reminding us to pray for protection. And above all, we want to thank Jesus for His divine protection and for blessing us with such an enjoyable and memorable trip!

In April, my husband and I were travelling around Negombo, Sri Lanka. As Pastor Prince has always shared—we should never take protection for granted. Hence, throughout our travels, we would partake of the Holy Communion in our room, and give thanks to Abba for keeping us safe.

On Good Friday, we dropped by one of the churches for a short visit before we flew home on a red eye flight. Thereafter, we rode in our hired car around Negombo, passing by many churches, including St Sebastian Church. Traffic was slower there as the roads were lined with vehicles, and many people were walking in the streets. The church compound was also overflowing with worshippers.

Days later, we found out from the news that a bomb was detonated at St Sebastian Church that Sunday. I thank our heavenly Father for His divine protection. The bomb blast could have happened anytime and anywhere, and we could have been hurt or even killed in the blast. We can never protect ourselves, only our heavenly Father can protect us and keep us safe as He promises in Psalm 91.

A few weeks ago, I was crossing the road near my office with a colleague. The traffic light had just turned red and the cars were moving to a stop. The middle lane was not clearly visible to us as there were vehicles in both the first and third lanes.

Suddenly, I felt an urge to pull my colleague back as we were approaching the middle of the crossing. That was when a speeding car zoomed past us at just inches away from us. We were in shock.

We heard loud honks as cars from two opposing traffic lanes tried to avoid the speeding car. Thankfully, no accidents happened that day.

The road which we were crossing was one that we use multiple times a day. We are always mindful of the traffic signals whenever we cross that road as the traffic is heavy around the area. Despite our safety awareness and mindfulness, an awful accident almost happened.

We thank the Lord for His protection. How wonderful it is to know that we are always loved and watched over by the Lord.
