This is a promise grounded in God's sovereignty and care: ultimate evil — the kind that destroys forever — will not ultimately prevail over the just. Hardships may come, but God's protection is real. The wicked, however, accumulate trouble through their own choices.
Memory phrase: God protects the just.
Talk about it: How do you feel knowing God protects those who do right?
Prayer: God, keep me just and under Your protection.
