** In the VideoGame/KirbysAdventure video, Kirby banishes [[BigBad Nightmare]] by putting his hand on Nightmare's head which cues [[SyntheticVoiceActor Jesus]] reciting John 14:6 [[labelnote:In full]] "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (NIV)[[/labelnote]].

** He defeats Dark Mind by first paraphrasing the first three lines of Psalm 95 [[labelnote:In the video]] "Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me. Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men. The mighty are gathered against me. Awake to help me,and behold."

For bonus points, the Matthew verse is just after a ThisIsImpossible declaration from Dark Mind.

* ''TabletopGame/MagicTheGathering'' has a number of cards portraying acts of divine intervention. The most obvious is the early card simply named "Divine Intervention," which ends the game (in a draw, oddly enough) in two turns. The Greek and Egyptian inspired planes of Theros and Amonkhet see incidents like this much more frequently. The ''Theros: Beyond Death'' set even featured a set of five cards depicting acts of Divine Intervention on behalf of each of the plane's five primary deities. There's even a special printing of the classic card "Wrath of God," depicting Theros' sun god, Helios, as the one whose wrath had been stirred.

** The various [[EternalHero Shezarrines]] throughout history. They are theorized to be the soul of [[GodIsDead the dead creator god]] Shezarr/Lorkhan/Shor/[[IHaveManyNames many others]] [[GodInHumanForm manifesting in mortal form]] as one of the [[HumansAreSpecial races of Men]] when they are threatened and then advancing their cause, usually by [[ScrewYouElves killing lots and lots]] of [[OurElvesAreBetter Mer (Elves)]]. [[FounderOfTheKingdom Tiber]] [[GodEmperor Septim]] was rumored to be one such manifestation, before he himself [[DeityOfHumanOrigin ascended to godhood]] as the Ninth Divine, Talos, possibly by "[[BecomingTheMask mantling]]" Shezarr and/or as part of a MergerOfSouls situation.

** Mehrunes Dagon is a villainous version of the trope whenever he manifests. His doing so led to the destruction of Old Mournhold and the Imperial Battlespire, and very nearly the destruction of Mundus entirely in ''[[TheElderScrollsIVOblivion Oblivion]]'' had he not been stopped by Akatosh, the [[TopGod chief deity]] God of Time of the [[SaintlyChurch Nine Divines pantheon]], pulling a direct intervention of his own to end the Oblivion Crisis.

* ''Literature/TheAlloyOfLaw'' has the god Harmony, who normally maintains a policy of non-intervention in mortal matters. However, in the climax, when Wax seriously pleads for help, Harmony responds [[spoiler: by sending him the trunk full of his guns and ammo.]]
