We received this testimony a few short weeks ago and every time I read it it brings tears of joy… She ordered banner flags for her and her son and this is just half of the testimony for her personally. She promised her son’s will follow as that is pretty mind blowing as well. The Father is SO good, words can’t ever be enough to describe it. Enjoy this beautiful, touching testimony 🙂
I was going through a very difficult trial when the Father told me to order my banner. I had been in an intense battle against the enemy who was consistently speaking through very close family members tearing me down. Yahweh had already been hard at restoring His words over me and the wounds beginning healing when the banner was ordered. I knew that everything, including the measurements had meaning. He showed me the 55″ was the one I was to have. I was scratching my head a bit wondering about Strong’s Hebrew 55, which is a word that literally means coil upwards (as a serpent). It also carries a meaning of mounting up (like on wings of eagles). As I was waiting for my banner to be made, I had begun meeting with my mentor, Vickie Chandler, who has been walking me through a very long deliverance process that the Father had already started working in me before we started meeting. In the course of meeting, Python was identified..big history I won’t go into. Well I have always been able to physically feel the attacks when they come.
As I told you, I had been studying the prophetic meanings of colors for our armor of God kids program at Sukkot, so when you delivered the banner, I was amazed to immediately recognize the mahogany brown (warrior’s heart) at the center and edges and all the purple (authority). As I read the letter and verses, I was so amazed at how it perfectly dealt with exactly what we were identifying in spiritual battle. Vickie was even amazed, especially with the rebuke against the enemy in the letter. This spirit steals blessings specifically and it is just so awesome that the Father repeatedly told your team this had to be the banner for me.
The Shabbat that you had meant to bring it and I had said it could wait til the next, but you insisted to bring it to me the next day…well, I wouldn’t have gotten it for several weeks if I hadn’t submitted to you making a special trip to bring it to me because my great aunt passed away that Wednesday and I immediately left town. Much restoration of my warrior heart had taken place in those few days of relishing in my prophetic banner’s message. When I placed this banner over myself in prayer or whenever I could feel the oppression of that spirit, I would have immediate peace and freedom from the oppression.
As I drove through the city where generation occult activity took place and curses spoken and those family members buried, the Spirit moved on my heart to confess those things, repent, renounce, rebuke as in a territorial battle. I had the banner on my dash as an ensign of who the Father says I am and what He declares, as I waged this battle, one of the sources of the python identified. I did the same as I drove through my childhood city waging territorial battles over my own stuff that were sources. I am no longer scratching my head about why the Father told me 55 (coiling upward/mounting up).
And because of having to leave town, I didn’t have an opportunity to wave my banner in worship service for the first time until this last Shabbat, when the Torah portion was ki tavo – inheritance. My banner was called “Covered by Blessings” and the colors highlighted blessing and inheritance, as well as the Love, beauty and glory of the Lord. I was reading a torah portion commentary that talked about us being His special treasure and the hebrew for that is segulah, which has the root sagol which is purple. So my banner was just another way the Father was confirming me His special treasure. We got in the sanctuary and got my banner out just as they started “Blessed Be The Name” so my first wave offering was as we were singing “every blessing you pour out, I’ll turn back to praise.”. This has been one of my go to songs throughout my journey as I have gone through many trials. I love how perfect His timing is.
The best part was after the song. I knelt down with my banner draping around me and thanked Him for all the restoration and testimonies and thanking him for His banner of love over me (I have been calling my banner His Banner over me is love since I got it). Just then, Cheryl started speaking and said she was hearing ” His banner over me is love”! It was a wink and a smile from Abba in that moment. When I am wrapped in His banner, I rest fully assured of my bridal status and the loving adoration of my Bridegroom. I feel like a beautiful queen adorned in the most beautiful royal garment of purple, gold and bronze…a gift from my King. I am empowered as a warrior with His authority. Nothing will ever steal these moments away! A beautiful testimony of a broken hearted and wounded warrior being healed, restored, quickened and strengthened because of obedience to the Spirit’s direction for this banner.
Thank you!
