The Lord Is My Banner

When Amalek attacks Israel at their place of rest, God doesn't just give victory, he shows his people where their strength really comes from. As Moses holds up the staff on the hilltop, with Aaron and Hur holding up his weary arms, this message unpacks two truths: our battles are won by God's strength, not our own effort, and the Christian life is a rhythm of seeing, remembering, and believing his faithfulness. From the altar Moses builds, we're reminded that God alone is the rallying point worth trusting, no matter what opposition we're facing.
