In this episode, Erika and Veronica explore the powerful Hebrew name YHWH Nissi — “The Lord is My Banner,” first declared by Moses in Book of Exodus 17 after Israel’s battle with Amalek. They unpack how a “banner” in the ancient world was more than a flag—it was a rallying point, a source of identity, and a symbol of victory. Through the story of Moses, Aaron, and Hur, listeners see that Israel’s victory didn’t come from strength or strategy, but from dependence on God. The episode also traces how the idea of a “banner” runs throughout Scripture and ultimately points to Jesus, who was lifted up as our source of salvation and victory. This conversation invites listeners to consider what they are standing under and challenges them to live fully under God’s authority, identity, and victory.
