Something that happened to me- I was at a New Years Eve worship meeting at my church that went until around 12am. I left the church and as I was driving away when I felt strongly I needed to pray for protection as I drove home. I got distracted and never prayed but I was about 1/2 way to my house when I looked into the rear-view mirror and saw an SUV going very fast headed straight for me. I cried out to God and suddenly God took over and I swerved into the next lane and then a SUV blew past me probably doing 60 MPH in a 35 zone. Probably a drunk on the way back from a party. God protected me from a horrible accident!

Yes it is good to know that Jesus watches our back. He has saved my wife and me from a near head on with a stolen car. Also took over and had me miss the oncoming car by quarter inches.

Our guardian never slumbers or sleeps that is why it is so good to be safe in His hands.

All praise to Jesus!

I'm one if the first people to doubt this type thing and calling our amazing reflexes when needed the reason we believe God intervened, when it was all just us using the abilities he gave us. Adrenalin, baby.

And that may well be all there is to it, but I too have believe he intervened for me on the road a couple of months ago when I had too much on my mind.

Glad you all made it through.

I Was coming back from work very very late at night . I fell asleep and missed my stop . I NEVER fall asleep on the train and this was the first time I’d ever done it . I Had either an hour long wait in freezing weather or a long walk back . I decided to walk, cursing the entire way . I got back to my stop and the police were all around the train station. Every one who had gotten off the train there had been robbed. I was wearing a lot of jewelry that day . I apologized to God right then and there because missing that stop saved me from some trauma !

the second time I decided to walk home from some shopping because it was a nice day instead of taking the bus back. I waited at the longest traffic light ever before crossing the street then realized that I needed to be on the side that I’d just left to walk home . Turned around, extremely annoyed, looked at that interminable light and decided to stay on the north side of the street . Walked down a few blocks and then occurred the worst car accident I’d ever been witness to ! The metal debris hit exactly where I would have been standing if I hadn’t crossed the street . I don’t think the person in the front car survived. The weird thing is I felt almost a compulsion to cross the street and if I had been thinking clearly I wouldn’t have . I think God was directing me both times.

the 3rd time wasn’t just annoying or confusing. I had washed a pair of pants and they weren’t dry and I needed them for work the next morning. I went to the laundromat across the street and put them in the dryer. I had to wait 15 minutes and the whole time I felt panicked as if something was wrong, like something evil was there . I wasn’t the only one who felt that . I was the last customer and the guys in charge of the place asked me to make sure the door was locked when I left and they just left! I couldn’t wait to get away from there . About 3am I was awakened by a lot of noise and bright lights . Someone had deliberately set the building on fire and 4 people died on the second floor. A mother and her 3 children . The laundromat was on the first floor and wasn’t even scorched . I never want to feel the presence evil like that again and I still ask God to protect me and my family. 2 families were destroyed that night . The pastor’s son in the next block who was accused of setting the fire and got 25 to life in prison ( and who I don’t think did it ) and the father who’d just come back into his wife and children’s life only to lose them in that horrible manner.

Bless G-d! Now, it's usually a good idea to examine what in your life you still need to work on, since He obviously provided you a miracle to avoid a terrible fate. Usually this happens when there is a decree in Heaven given, and then just in time, another decree issued from Heaven rescinding the previous decree. It still means though that there must have been a reason for the original decree. Find out what it is, work on it, and finally have peace! :D Shalom!

To God be the glory. Accident happens anywhere, but it's still our responsibility to take care of ourselves. It's nice to know that you're okay. This reminds me of my grandmom when she's driving all by herself. We always tell her to ask someone/mechanic to check her car always and pray whenever she needs to go. I've read this Car Technology That Improves Older Drivers Safety and I think today's technology is a big help not just for elders but for everyone
