"He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; he will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the four corners of the earth."
Many people ask why some Christians worship with flags. Is it Biblical they ask? Although the word flag is not in scripture, the word banner or standard is found several times in scripture.
Much like our flags today from many countries or states, the people of Israel had a banner that marked the territory where they lived. Other people had banners that marked what tribe, kingdom or country they belonged to. These banners were carried into battle when fighting their enemies. The Israelites often sent their worshipers out before their army of warriors, to give praise and honor to God before the battle. God responded by helping them win the battle. That tells me that worship and banners (flags) goes together for intersession and warfare.
