We all are in the hands of the Almighty God. He watches over us and protects us from every evil and calamity. God does not abandon us to the evil elements of this world. He protects us. He watches over us in love. When our Lord Jesus Christ was attending to people’s problems on earth, he blessed both those who believed in Him as well as those who didn't believed in Him.
The loving hands of the Father have never left any of us. God allows His rain to fall both for the wicked and the righteous. He blesses everyone equally. God is not a partial personality. He cares for us all. So, the question of God protecting the sinners is not an issue at all. God protects everyone of us.
God protects us because we all come from Him. He created us. We are his offspring. We are all his children. That is why we should accept Him and his ways. We should run to him be the alone have a safe place for us in this sinful and evil world.
