Our nation’s flag is more than a piece of fabric—it is a symbol of liberty, justice, and unity, echoing the values and sacrifices that built the United States. In this patriotic devotional, Lynette Kittle reflects on the historical and spiritual significance of the American flag, particularly as we commemorate Flag Day on June 14.

Drawing from Isaiah 18:3 and the founding ideals of our country, this prayerful message reminds us that honoring the flag is also about honoring the godly principles of freedom, dignity, and truth that shaped the nation. Whether you come from a military family, a history-loving home, or are simply moved by the red, white, and blue, this devotional encourages you to pause and give thanks for what the flag represents—and for the God who grants true freedom.
