Thoughts from the book of Isaiah-36

Isaiah 25:9 NIV
In that day they will say, “Surely this is our God; we trusted in him, and he saved us. This is the Lord, we trusted in him; let us rejoice and be glad in his salvation.”

Those who trust in the Lord Jesus Christ will find salvation and eternal joy. He is the Savior of all who come to him with a contrite heart and submit their lives in to his hands.
Regarding "trusting in the Lord", we read in the book of Proverbs.... 
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. (Proverbs 3:5, 6)
Many lean on their own understanding and do not acknowledge him, even though he repeatedly makes known to them the salvation available through him.God wants to make our paths straight, so that we may live with him in eternity; but for that, we must trust in him with all our hearts and acknowledge him in all our ways.

We read in Psalm 125......
Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be shaken but endures forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds his people both now and forevermore. (Psalm 125:1, 2)
God is a shield and refuge for those who trust in him, he gives them salvation and eternal joy. Blessed are they who trust in him wholeheartedly.
