has my back

[Jennifer Godwin]

It's like a friendship/comradeship/war/defensive/protective thing. "I'll
watch your back." "Watch my back, I'm going in." "Jessie always got my
back. I've never been at a party and had any trouble. She keeps an eye out
for the bad 'uns."

So, this guy knows that God is watching out for him.
