Life can feel like a battle sometimes. You’re trying to hold it all together—your family, your job, your emotions—but deep down, you’re tired. You wonder if you're doing enough. If you're strong enough.
But there’s good news: You don’t have to fight alone.
Don't forget the story of Moses in Exodus 17. As long as Moses held his hands up to God, they kept winning the battle. When he got tired, his friends helped him keep his hands raised. After the victory, Moses called God Jehovah Nissi—“The Lord is my Banner.”
A banner is something lifted high so everyone can see it. It’s a sign of victory, hope, and identity. And right now, God is waving His banner over you.
He’s holding it high in the air, reminding you:
“I’m with you. Keep your eyes on Me.”
He’s giving you hope when you feel hopeless.
Courage when you're afraid.
Peace when everything feels uncertain.
Even when life is hard.
Even when the fight feels long.
Even when you feel weak...
Jehovah Nissi is still your banner.
You are not forgotten.
You are not failing.
You are led and loved by a God who never stops fighting for you.
So take a breath.
Look up.
See the banner waving.
And remember—the One who leads you has already claimed the victory.
I choose to lift my eyes and run to Jehovah Nissi - the one who lifts a banner over me.
