Fire Scripture:

The third reward of righteousness is that it brings great deliverance. Proverbs 11:6 says, “The righteousness of the upright shall deliver them: but transgressors shall be taken in their own naughtiness.”
Similarly, in Psalm 18:50, the Bible says that God gives great deliverance to His kings and shows mercy to His anointed. The king and the anointed here refer to God’s righteous children. God will never suffer the righteous to be moved. He will deliver them from trouble and their many afflictions.
David was pursued by envious King Saul for many years. God delivered him from Saul. The same All-powerful God had delivered him from a lion, a bear and Goliath. He fought many battles and did not lose any. God also delivered Meshach, Shadrach and Abednega from the fiery furnace.
In Acts 12, Herod killed Apostle James and also arrested and imprisoned Apostle Peter, waiting for the opportune time to kill him too. However, the church gathered and prayed. God answered by sending an angel to deliver Peter from incarceration. The angel brought Peter out of the prison even to the consternation of those who were interceding for him.
As part of His deliverance programme for the righteous, God sometimes applies the law of divine substitution. The Bible says that the righteous comes out of trouble and the wicked goes into it instead. Those who conspired to get Daniel into the den of lions were devoured by the lions after Daniel had been delivered from the same lions.
Beloved, make living righteously your top priority. The Lord will take special interest in you and deliver you from your visible and invisible enemies.
Some men took an oath that they would not eat or drink until they were able to kill Apostle Paul, but their efforts were in vain. God delivered Paul from their hands as well as from shipwreck and from the serpent the islanders taught would kill him.
Stay righteous. God will keep delivering you, in Jesus’ Name.
