God was telling the people of Israel by Isaiah's words and dress, or lack thereof, that they were foolish to trust someone other than God. This is a refrain found in many parts of Isaiah and other prophets. God reminds the people when they trust in someone other than God eventually those people will fail. Today, at least in America it seems to me, that people are putting their trust in the government, certain politicians (on both sides of the aisle), or the economy. They are not worth it. Eventually, they will fail. The only one we need to put our trust in is God and God alone. For God is our solid rock and as the song goes, "all other ground is sinking sand."
