The God-Given Banner (Psalm 60, Part 1)


All around us we see banners extolling political points of view. The banners lead and we follow. May we follow God’s banner of truth as we affirm our faith in God’s sovereignty.

The Banner Raised (verses 1-4)

The great mission of the church is to unfurl God’s banner in triumph, to make His truth known. The terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, demonstrated our vulnerability as a nation. Following the attacks we saw churches and prayer services packed—but only briefly. We then returned to our complacent attitudes. May we raise up the banner of the good news of gospel.

Loving God, our land has been shaken. Mend the fractures in our society and in Your church. Bring us victorious through these desperate times. Help us to unfurl Your banner of truth here in Jefferson County.
