Jehovah Nissi - The Lord is Our Banner

Have you ever found yourself in a no-win situation? Whether it's an issue of morality, politics, or just plain common sense, as Jesus followers, we may be concerned with our options. In Exodus 17, Moses and the Israelites appear to be in a no-win situation. They wander into a land to face a formidable enemy – And God shows up! After the battle, Moses calls God Jehovah Nissi – the Lord is Our Banner. This name serves as a reminder that no matter how desperate and needy we might be – the battle always belongs to the Lord and not ourselves.
