    The Folly of Trusting to Egypt for Help

    By John Nelson Darby
    0
    ISA 31:1

    John Nelson Darby emphasizes the folly of Israel's reliance on Egypt for help, contrasting their trust in human strength with the divine power of God. He illustrates how Israel, despite being God's chosen people, often turned back to the worldly resources of Egypt, neglecting their relationship with the Holy One of Israel. This historical pattern serves as a warning for the church today, which is also tempted to seek worldly wisdom and support instead of relying on God's guidance and strength. Darby calls for a faith that recognizes God's sovereignty and the futility of trusting in human means, urging believers to remember their identity in Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit. Ultimately, he reminds us that true safety and help come from God alone, not from the flesh or the world.
