FIRST FRIDAY FASTING + PRAYER 2025

SEPTEMBER: Yahweh Nissi - The Lord My Banner
Ancient armies carried standards or banners that served as marks of identification and as symbols that embodied the ideals of a people. A banner, like a flag, was something that could be seen from afar, serving as a rallying point for troops before a battle. When Moses, by building an altar and naming it Yahweh Nissi, “The Lord is my Banner,” he created a memorial of God’s protection and power during the Israelites first battle after leaving Egypt.

Prayer: Read Numbers 21:8-9 – Moses was told by God to make a bronze snake and place it on a pole – any Israelite bitten by a poisonous snake could look at the bronze snake and live. Where is the first place you look when you are suffering? Do you immediately look to Yahweh Nissi or is your heart attracted elsewhere?
