Jeremiah 15:19-21 New International Version (NIV)
19 Therefore this is what the Lord says:
“If you repent, I will restore you
that you may serve me;
if you utter worthy, not worthless, words,
you will be my spokesman.
Let this people turn to you,
but you must not turn to them.
20 I will make you a wall to this people,
a fortified wall of bronze;
they will fight against you
but will not overcome you,
for I am with you
to rescue and save you,”
declares the Lord.
21 “I will save you from the hands of the wicked
and deliver you from the grasp of the cruel.”
God never promises to make our lives easy than it should be. He promises only to deliver us from our enemies and to save us from the wicked people who would destroy us. Jesus prayed, “My prayer is not that you take them out of the world but that you protect them from the evil one.” (John 17:15)

YEREMIA 15:19-21
19 Kwa sababu hiyo Bwana asema hivi, Ukirudi, ndipo mimi nitakapokurejeza, upate kusimama mbele zangu; nawe ukitoa kilicho cha thamani katika kilicho kibovu, utakuwa kama kinywa changu; nao watakurudia wewe, bali hutawarudia wao.
20 Nami nitakufanya kuwa kama ukuta wa boma la shaba juu ya watu hawa; nao watapigana nawe; lakini hawatakushinda; maana mimi nipo pamoja nawe, ili nikuokoe, na kukuponya, asema Bwana.
21 Nami nitakuokoa na mkono wa watu wabaya, nami nitakukomboa katika mkono wao wenye kutisha.
Mungu hajawahi kutuahidi maisha rahisi kuliko inavyopaswa kuwa. Yeye ameahidi kutuokoa dhidi ya adui zetu na watu waovu wanaotaka kutuangamiza. Yesu aliomba hivi, “Mimi siombi kwamba uwatoe katika ulimwengu; bali uwalinde na yule mwovu..” (Yohana 17:15)
