Seek Him
The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah while he was shut up in the court of the guard: "Go, and say to Ebed-melech the Ethiopian, 'Thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will fulfill my words against this city for harm and not for good, and they shall be accomplished before you on that day. But I will deliver you on that day, declares the Lord, and you shall not be given into the hand of the men of whom you are afraid. For I will surely save you, and you shall not fall by the sword, but you shall have your life as a prize of war, because you have put your trust in me, declares the Lord.'"
Jeremiah 39:15-18 (ESV)
Those who trust in God will be saved. Our best efforts, soldiers, schemes, and thoughts will not and cannot save us from evil. God alone saves those who put their trust in Him.
The only reason one would not trust God is that they do not know Him. The only reason we would not know Him is that we have not sought Him.
