True salvation and strength comes from returning, repentance, and trusting in God, rather than in our own human efforts… a turning to God for our inner peace and strength. Exodus 14:14 tells us that the Lord will fight for us as the Divine Warrior and so we can rest… trusting fully that, “The fruit of righteousness will be peace, the effect of righteousness will be quietness and confidence forever.” (Isaiah 32:17)
