Scripture: Luke 4:29-30

The Father does not use confusion merely to deliver His people as a group. He has also used confusion to protect Jesus from the crowd in Nazareth. When the crowd took Jesus to throw him off of the cliff, Jesus was able to escape through the midst of the crowd. The crowd was confused, and they lost their grip allowing for Jesus to simply walk away. Spend some time talking to missionaries who have spent time in communist countries, or other countries where Christianity is verboten. The odds are strong that you will hear stories of border guards looking through crates of Bibles and seeing nothing but food or medical supplies. There are exciting accounts of the secret police failing to recognize Christians who were wanted for proselytizing. The truth is that through prayer, God can and does cause confusion amongst the camps of the wicked!
