Jesus Christ typifies the ransom of man from the clutches of sin and satan. God sacrificed Jesus to ransom man from the Adamic sin.
Mark 10:45
“For even The Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve and give his life a ransom in the place of the many.
So in our daily life, God by His divine arrangement can cause someone else to pay the punishment you should pay or to pay the fees you should pay. If an evil arrow is fired against you for instance, the spirit of God would divert the arrow and in the process may hit someone else who is not a child of God. Pls read Isaiah 43:3-5
“For I am the LORD your God, The Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I have given Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in your place. “Since you are precious in My sight, Since you are honored and I love you, I will give other men in your place and other peoples in exchange for your life. “Do not fear, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, And gather you from the west.
