"This is what the Sovereign Lord, the Holy One of Israel, says: "In repentance and rest is your salvation, in quietness and trust is your strength, but you would have none of it"- Isaiah 30:15 (NIV).
Quietness reveals strength and by doing so you preserve your life (Proverbs 13:3). Even in the face of uncertainty, trust in the Lord and your heart will anchor firm (Psalm 112:7). Refusal to "be still" in quietness and trust is an act of disobedience and a declaration of disbelief. Yet, submission to the will of God to be still and know that He is God (Psalm 46:10) increases faith; strengthening the believer. God is your strength and shield (Psalm 3:3); therefore, your heart will rejoice and your soul will safely rest (Psalm 16:9). And in your rest you find salvation.
