1. Isaiah 50:10 (ESV)
  2. Exposition

What does the Lord call his followers to do?

Isaiah 50:10 (ESV)

10 Who among you fears the LORD and obeys the voice of his servant? Let him who walks in darkness and has no light trust in the name of the LORD and rely on his God.

The Lord calls those who fear him to receive the word that sustains the weary, for their consolation: he urges them to trust in the name of the Lord, the covenant God, in the darkness, and rely on his God, placing on him the darkness of their circumstances and remaining confident that he can help.1 This would be a response of true understanding of the Lord, in the face of a dark situation.
