“For thus said the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel,’In returning and rest you shall be saved; in quietness and in trust shall be your strength.’” (Isaiah 30:15)

After the Assyrians had conquered the Northern Kingdom of Israel, they sought to overthrow Judah as well. In response, Judah asked for help from Egypt. God spoke through Isaiah rebuking Judah for trusting Egypt rather than God for their deliverance. In His mercy, He offered salvation to those who would return and find rest in Him. He offered strength to those who would trust Him with quiet faith. Who or what are you trusting for your deliverance?
