Jehovah Nissi: “The Lord is my
Banner.” Stresses that God is our rallying point and our means of victory; the
one who fights for His people. This name commemorates the Israelites desert
victory over the Amalekites.
And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it
Jehovah Nissi: The-Lord-Is-My-Banner
وَشَيَّدَ مُوسَى مَذْبَحاً لِلرَّبِّ دَعَاهُ «يَهْوَهْ نِسِّي» وَمَعْنَاهُ:
الرَّبُّ
رَايَتِي
أَوْ
عَلَمِي
Nothing that Moses
or the Israelites did in the physical realm brought about victory. God’s
presence and power took them into the battle and assured victory.
What battles are
you fighting today? Consider the following bizarre question: Is the battle that you are in now, is it
a battle that the Lord has chosen for you? Scripture is very clear that
the Lord, in fact, chooses certain battles for us to fight. Does He lead the
way as Jehovah Nissi in your current battles? We
all need to let Him be our banner in all our battles and challenges.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:
Abba Father, Adonai, thank You for being my rallying
point and my means of victory. Jehovah
Nissi, I thank you that You are my banner. Forgive me God that I sometimes
choose not to walk under Your banner, and I put my faith in myself or other
people or things instead of You. Forgive me that I put my desires above Yours.
Please forgive me and help me to be under Your banner that no matter what
difficulties I do face, I relinquish my control and say, LORD, this is Your
situation, it’s Your battle, it’s Your victory. Help me God to trust You, obey
You, and allow You to work out Your purpose in my life. Thank You Father God
for Your inseparable, unfailing, deep, and everlasting love for me and Your
abundant blessings in my life. I pray in the holy name of Jesus, my Lord and Saviour.
To Jesus be the glory, the power, the dominion, the majesty, and the
blessings before all time, now,
and forevermore.
Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
