When I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there

…and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard)-- if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment. This is especially true of those who follow the corrupt desire of the sinful nature and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, these men are not afraid to slander celestial beings; yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not bring slanderous accusations against such beings in the presence of the Lord.

II Peter 2:7-11

God knows how to rescue his children. He has done it before. In Genesis 7, God rescued Noah and his family. In chapter 19 of Genesis, he rescued Lot and his family. The whole book of Exodus is about his rescuing Moses and the children of Israel. Daniel lived through the fiery furnace. Peter was able to walk on water as long as he kept his eyes on Jesus. Yes, God does care for us, when we ask. He does care for us even when we do not care for ourselves. He makes provisions for saving us even when we do not know we need them. He sent Jesus!
