ashley95126 There are different reasons but here are a couple. In the Bible, one of the words you will find that describes a flag is a standard. The definition of a standard is a flag indicating the presence of a sovereign or public official; and a flag, emblematic figure, or other object raised on a pole to indicate the rallying point of an army, fleet. One of the reasons we have flags is because we are acknowledging God’s presence and this is a place where His army is rallying. When we worship, we are warring. Flags were used in war and every flag had a meaning, revealed who they (the troop) belonged to, and some flags had who they had defeated on them. As army of the Lord, we do this as well. When we raise our flags we represent the Sovereign God and remind the enemy that he is defeated and God is above all. I hope this gave you some insight. Blessings to you!
