2Ch 20:12 "O our God, will You not judge them? For we have no power against this great multitude that is coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are upon You."
This was the prayer of king Jehoshapat when a mighty army was about to invade them. Helpless and clueless, they were brought to the end of themselves. When everything around you is hedged in, the only way left is to look up. And that's exactly the position God wanted them to be.
It is the same with spiritual salvation. In reality, we are helpless and powerless to save ourselves. The moment this truth comes entering our minds and lodging in our consciences, we would look for deliverance outside ourselves.
And salvation comes the very moment we turn and look in faith upon the Savior and what He did on the cross.
Turn your eyes upon the Savior. Look at Him in faith, dying on the cross for your salvation.
