Do you know God as Jehovah Nissi? God’s Banner? God has placed His banner over you and He is still a covenant-keeping God!
Don’t faint, hold fast to every promise written in God’s Word! The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy. (John 10:10) How? By distractions that come in the form of trials, seemingly hard times, test, disappoints, sickness or disease, financial burdens, strife, jealousy, malice, bitterness, unforgiveness, and anything that can break your focus or cause you to doubt God’s love for you. Also, the enemy tries to cause you to doubt what God has actually said in His Word. Remember, the enemy is using the same old tricks he used in the garden to get you out of fellowship/relationship with God.
Keep looking to Jehovah Nissi, your banner. Stay focused on the Promises & Covenants God has spoken over you! (2 Corinthians 1:20)
It was a year ago today, September 18, 2015, that my friend Mary and I were driving from Florida to Raleigh, NC and all of a sudden, a bright, beautiful rainbow appeared. Not only did it appear, but the rainbow ended right there on the right side of the highway. The very end of the rainbow stopped on the right side in front of us and to the right side of us. We couldn’t believe what we were seeing. I looked at Mary and she looked at me as we slowed down looking at this beautiful symbol of God’s “Covenant/Promise”. (Genesis 9:12-17)
We were in the far right lane and I asked Mary “Do you see that?” She said “oh my God!” We could sense the presence of God and knew He was speaking to us. Our mouths dropped open in awe because we had never seen or heard anyone say they had seen the very end of a rainbow. Actually, the very end of that rainbow!!
Less than 5 minutes later, another vivid, brilliant rainbow appeared on the left side of the highway, which extended into the highway. It ended again right in front of us and we drove through it. We couldn’t describe what we were feeling at that time! We were beyond words, beyond awe of words at this point, with tears rolling down our faces as we begin to praise God because we knew God was speaking to us.
His presence was so tangible; like He was right there in the car with us. He was sharing and letting us know that He had not forgotten His promises to us. They are “Yea & Amen”! Also, I could hear the Holy Spirit say “He was going to give us double for our troubles” (Isaiah 67:7) and the fact that we drove through it, the Holy Spirit said we will be saturated with His presence, goodness, blessings, favor, and every promise shall manifest. We just praised and worshipped God for giving us a sign of His faithfulness and goodness towards us! Then there was a third rainbow that appeared and we just drove under it, which signified that He’s covering us in His love! His banner over us is Love, Jehovah Nissi. (Exodus 17:15 NLT) Trust His name.
There will be more signs and wonders that God will show you as individuals and as the corporate body of Christ. This is a season where we will begin to see the outpouring of miracles, signs and wonders in every area/arena and God will get all the Glory!! Just remember He is not a man that can lie! Nor the son of man that He should repent. Has He said, and will not do it? Or has spoken, and will not make it good? (Numbers 23:19)
Be still and know that He is the great I AM! (Exodus 3:14-15) He is Jehovah Nissi; our Banner. Do you want to become more familiar with God’s covenant names? Find help here.
