Jehovah Nissi – The Lord Is My Banner

Exodus 17:8-16

 

By knowing the names of God, we discover who God truly is and who He desires to be to and for us.

 

God’s revelation of His names to us is an invitation to trust Him and experience Him in that particular facet of His nature and character.

 

As Jehovah Nissi, our God leads us into battle, He fights for us, He protects us, and He gives us the victory through His power and might.

 

God invites us to daily walk under His banner and rely on His strength and power so we can see Him win the battles in our lives.

 

The power we operate in is from God who leads us and instructs us on how to use “what’s in our hands.”

 

This is a call to intimacy with God so that we can hear His voice, obey His instructions, and then serve where and how He is leading us.

 

This is a call to engage spiritual warfare through prayer.

 

This is a call to recognize our own human limitations as we acknowledge our dependence on God and our interdependence on others.

 

This is a call to reflect, remember, and testify of God’s goodness and faithfulness as a continual part of our worship to Him.

 

This is a call to make sure that our whole lives identify with God’s Kingdom (God’s rule and reign) and not with the kingdom of this world.

 

Jehovah Nissi reminds us that the Lord is our banner and we are the Lord’s.  It’s a declaration of who He is and whose we are!

 

God invites us to daily walk under His banner and rely on His strength so we can see Him win the battles in our lives.

 

Our battles are really the Lord’s.  Our job is to listen closely for His instructions, submit to His plan, and let Him fight the battles for us.
