In ancient history banners were used as a declaration of allegiance and to lead armies to battle. And when an army triumphed they would raise their banner in celebration of victory. In the battle between Israel and the Amalekites Moses recognized that their victory was not because of his raised hands but because The Lord fought for them so he built an altar so that they would forever be reminded that The Lord is their Banner.
The Israelites faced a physical battle and we face a spiritual battle. And in battle it’s important to know who to look to for strength, encouragement and victory.
The Lord is our Banner; He leads us to battle and when the battle is won we exalt His Name in declaration of our allegiance to Him.
His Name is the Banner we raise in celebration of victory.
