After Sunday's message i had this song on my mind...

As you listen to the 2nd verse, you may be asking "what is an Ebenezer?" After Israel had been defeated twice - losing some 34,000 soldiers AND the Ark of the Covenant - they repented of their "idol worship," humbled themselves and asked Samuel to pray for God to give them the victory. After God gave them the victory over the Philistines and they were able to take the Ark of the Covenant back.

1 Samuel 7:12 - Then Samuel took a stone and set it up between Mizpah and Shen and called its name Ebenezer: for he said, “Till now the LORD has helped us.”

Ebenezer simply means "stone of help." It was something to remind the Israelites that their help is from God.

Our help is from God, too! We raise an Ebenezer when we sing of His great love, journal about what He has done, or any number of other ways that we remind ourselves and those around us of God's help and provision.
