divine acts

Heavenly supernatural events

Divine acts are actions attributed to a god or supernatural power—miracles, interventions, creation itself.

In legal and insurance contexts, acts of God or divine acts refer to natural events beyond human control: earthquakes, floods, lightning strikes.

The phrase implies no one can be held responsible for what only the divine could cause or prevent.
