Looking at this verse again, it is encouraging to think about the word extinguish, which means to really put out and render powerless in this sense. Keep in one's mind's eye a raging inferno that is suddenly put out. There may be quite a lot of smoke damage, and maybe some other damage too, but there is nothing to damage or harm the believer, if your trust is in God.
