Deep in the heart of Israel, God desires to be known by His chosen people. Revealing Himself to Moses as Yahweh, the Great I Am, a name too holy to utter, the Israelites call Him Jehovah. Throughout the Old Testament, Jehovah responds to the faith of His people and shows Himself strong on their behalf. In remembrance of Jehovah’s power and love, the people give Him additional names describing His ability and willingness to help in their lives. Each name describes the nature of the One True God! Each is Jehovah! Together, they are the J-Team!

Hezekiah was twenty-five years old when he became king of Israel. He did what was pleasing in the Lord’s sight. Hezekiah trusted in the Lord, the God of Israel, and remained faithful to the Lord in everything. One day, King Hezekiah received a threatening letter from the King of Syria, who had already defeated all of the nations surrounding Israel. King Hezekiah prayed and Jehovah Nissi, The Lord God Our Banner miraculously delivered Israel from an army that was much bigger and stronger than their army.
