Let Your Flag Fly


Wherever I‘ve traveled, around the world, the raising of a nation‘s flag is a rallying point for patriotism and pride.  For instance, in a monarchy, such as the United Kingdom, a special flag flies over the palace when the Queen is in residence. Throughout recorded time, when armies marched out to battle, their banner proudly went before them.  The sight of our own Stars and Stripes, always make me pause and remember the wonderful nation we call home, America…”One nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.” While we have our share of flaws, I‘m still proud to call myself an American.  As a Christian we too have a banner, one representing the indwelling spirit of God, that the whole world should see. Today we honor our nation’s flag, and everyday be sure to let God’s flag fly free from the castle of your heart. “In that day the heir to David's throne will be a banner of salvation to all the world. The nations will rally to him, and the land where he lives will be a glorious place.” Isaiah 11:10.
