You want our protectors to be as powerful as possible. If they are good men who are for you, your desire is for them to be as strong as imaginable. At the very least, they must be stronger than the things you are afraid of. If they are not, you rightfully doubt their ability to protect you.
God is powerful. If that power is for you and against your enemies, you can rest well. But if you are in opposition to Jesus, you have good reason to fret for nothing can protect you from Him. Nothing in which you may place your hope has the power to resist Him. Your counterfeit messiahs cannot deliver you. Many won't even try. They will leave you in the moment of need, and those that do stick around will give way to God's strength and offer no refuge from His power.
If by faith you are found in Jesus, the power of God is not a fact that should produce fear, but rather the very basis of more faith. His shield is impenetrable. His sword is unstoppable. There is no evil He cannot resist. There is no
evil He cannot overcome.
