Flags of FellowshipSample

God’s Banner Over Israel

Flags are more than just fabric. They embody identity. And they embody hope. A flag tells a story—it unites people under shared values, history, and purpose. When raised, a flag signals presence and perseverance. As the psalmist proclaimed, “But for those who fear you, you have raised a banner to be unfurled against the bow” (Psalm 60:4).

Even as the world has turned its back on Israel, people of faith—Christians and Jews together—still hold high the flag of Israel as a symbol of support, solidarity, and spiritual hope. But flying Flags of Fellowship is more than just ceremony. It ties each of us today to biblical tradition and to the miraculous story of God’s faithfulness to His Chosen People.

The Bible itself tells of flags and banners, and Israel’s modern flag finds its roots in both Scripture and history. Raising Flags of Fellowship today is to take part in God’s ongoing promises to Israel—and to all who bless her.
