Ni picha ya mwili. Amaleki alikuwa mpinzani kwa watu wa Mungu kama vile mwili ulivyo changamoto kwa waumini kupigana nao. Ushindi ulipewa Israeli wakati Musa alipoinua mikono yake. Hapa tunaona mfano wa maombezi ya Bwana Yesu mbinguni kwa niaba yetu.\u00a0<\/p><p>Katika Wafilipi 1, tuna ushuhuda wa Paulo: \u201cKwa maana kwangu mimi, kuishi ni Kristo, na kufa ni faida\u201d (Flp. 1:21). Kisha, katika mistari ya 27-30, tunaona njia saba za vitendo ambazo mwamini anaweza \u201ckuishi Kristo\u201d tunapokuwa bado duniani. Tunapaswa kuwa na mwenendo unaostahili injili; kusimama imara; kujitahidi pamoja na waumini wengine; kutoogopa wapinzani wetu; kutambua neema ya Mungu; kuwa tayari kuteseka; na kushiriki katika pambano hilo.<\/p><p>Katikati ya mashauri haya ya vitendo, tunaona kwamba Mungu ndiye chanzo cha wokovu wetu. Paulo anasema kwamba wokovu wao &quot;unatoka kwa Mungu&quot; (mstari wa 28). Yeye ndiye anayetupa nguvu na uwezo wa kufanya mambo yale yanayoonyesha kwamba Kristo anaishi ndani yetu. Tumeitwa kusimama, kujitahidi, kuteseka, na kushiriki katika pambano, lakini hatufanyi hivyo kwa nguvu zetu wenyewe. Yule ambaye chini ya Bendera yake tunasimama ndiye anayetupa tunachohitaji kwa ajili ya vita.<\/p><p>Maisha ya Kikristo si bila migogoro. Katika ulimwengu huu tutakuwa na dhiki. Kuna wapinzani kwa ajili ya mwamini na maadui wa msalaba wa Kristo. Lakini katika migogoro yote Mungu anajithibitisha kuwa Yehova Nissi wetu\u2014Bendera yetu. Akili moja inatuwezesha kuwa na furaha katikati ya vita.<\/p><p>Jina hili la kwanza la Mungu tunaloliona likionyeshwa katika Wafilipi linatuambia kuhusu Ulinzi wa Kimungu. Yehova Nissi ndiye Bendera yetu katika mzozo.<\/p><p><strong>Mtangazaji wa Leo:<\/strong><br \/>Kama vile ushindi wa Israeli dhidi ya Amaleki ulivyotoka kwa Bwana, uwezo wetu wa kusimama imara na
