Why Are Flags Used in Worship?

Psalm 60:4 (NLT)
But you have raised a banner for those who fear you—a rallying point in the face of attack.
Psalm 20:5 (NLT)
May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory and raise a victory banner in the name of our God. May the LORD answer all your prayers.

To Bestow Honor — To declare an aspect of God’s character. As we wave it, we minister in love to our King and proclaim the magnificence of Who He is.

To Signal God’s Presence — Lifting flags in worship follows the action of Moses as he lifted his rod as a visual sign of God’s presence, power and authority over the armies of Israel.

To Declare Our Allegiance — As we wave our flags in worship, we admit our loyalty as members of the Lord’s army in the presence of men on earth.

To Rally the Troops — Raising a flag stirs unity and loyalty in the King’s army, gathers soldiers together for strategy and strengthens commitments to victory Isaiah 11:12).

To Be A Touchpoint of Faith — Flags serve the Body of Christ as a visual reminder of His faithfulness as Jehovah Rophe.
