Damn
Sorcery
Destroy target creature. A creature destroyed this way can't be regenerated.
Overload (You may cast this spell for the overload cost. If you do, change its text by replacing all instances of "target" with "each".)

I'm not into your God themed description. Majorly gross to me.
I don't understand the need for Aether Vial here. With only 1 & 2 drops, you're going to be top decking around t4. Instead, I'd suggest using those 4 slots for 2x more lands to improve the stability of the mana base and 2x draw card spells to keep the deck from stalling out. I'd also cut Reprieve because 1) none of your creatures have ETB effects and 2) it only slows opponents marginally, where classic standby spells like Path to Exile would be both cheaper to cast and more effective. The cantrip draw card of Reprieve doesn't provide any card advantage, so it isn't really helping the deck. In it's place, I'd suggest 2x more removal spells and 2x more draw cards, bringing your draw card to 4x and your removal to 6x. For removal, I'd suggest 2x of any of the following: Path to Exile, Damn, Winds of Abandon. For draw card I'd suggest Night's Whisper, Sword-Point Diplomacy, or Tocasia's Welcome. A big advantage to running 6x+ removal spells is that when facing non-creature threats, you can sideboard out some removal to deal with Artifacts and Enchantments, etc while still having some creature removal spells. An important element to solid draw card spells is that they offer you card advantage, not just cantrip replacement.
I think it's also worth noting that Black is really only a splash in this deck and that while Black does open up effects not available in white, I'm not seeing those effects here. While Bitter Triumph is a good fit mechanically in this deck, given how many great removal spells available in white, I don't think it warrants the need for Black mana here. Similarly, Cleric of Life's Bond doesn't strike me as a 'must have' in this list. I'd say Essence Channeler would be as good or better in it's place. So it's very possible Black could be cut entirely, which would just make the deck more consistent/stable. Something like Marauding Blight-Priest would be an example of a Black spell giving the deck something White isn't going to offer. I'd also say Black offers a lot more card advantage options than White, though Tocasia's Welcome is a very solid more recent option for White that goes a long way in reducing the need to depend on Black for draw card. That said, I think Night's Whisper would be a solid choice for this deck, especially if you're dedicated to limiting the brew to 1 & 2 drops.
I want to like Giver of Runes - the repeatability of Protection is a great ability - but with Brave the Elements, I'm not convinced Giver is worth the space. If you were to go to mono-white and lose the lifegain from Cleric of Life's Bond, then I think I'd drop Giver of Runes for Soul's Attendant.

theNeroTurtle: under current rules, yes. but i'm not talking about cards like Damn. those can stay under current rules. i'm talking about cards like Boggart Ram-Gang. the way i see it though, color restrictions in commander are meant to represent the colors of mana the commander would have access to for their own magic, since they're the leader of the deck (army). so anything they could cast (meaning fully utilize all parts of) should be fair game imo. so since Krenko, Mob Boss can use red mana, and Boggart Ram-Gang can be cast with purely red mana, krenko should have that in his arsenal. personally, i just don't think it's right to say "i have more fun by limiting what my opponent can use" in a casual format.

Swap these cards:
Demolition Field for Wasteland
Fabled Passage for Prismatic Vista (The true fetchland equivalent for basics)
Overkill for Swords to Plowshares (This swap will also lower your deck's avgerage cmc!)
World Map for Expedition Map
(I'd still try to keep world map too but if you can only have one or the other, expedition map is superior)
Wrath of God for Damn (strictly better and more versatile) (I would still try to also include wrath of god but if you can only pick one, damn is better)

I love Mardu! My favorite deck plays a lot like this one.
Below are some of my recommendations, but I would mostly recommend you check out the CommandZone on Youtube - they have a deckbuilding guide that is very good. Also, for some ideas on cards, you can check out EDHREC, which is a database for deckbuilding.
Anywho, here are some of my recommendations:
== ADD ==
Isshin, Two Heavens as One and Windcrag Siege double all your attack triggers.
Alesha, Who Smiles at Death and Terra, Herald of Hope if you face a lot of removal.
Swords to Plowshares, Damn, Blasphemous Act, and Ruinous Ultimatum for removal.
Boros Charm for protection.
Voice of Victory, Bone-Cairn Butcher, Infantry Shield, and Dalkovan Packbeasts for more Warrior tokens.
Hardened Tactician, Raiders' Spoils, Mindblade Render, Skullclamp, and Zurgo Stormrender for card draw.
Professional Face-Breaker for ramp and card advantage. Boros Signet, Orzhov Signet, Rakdos Signet, Talisman of Conviction, Talisman of Hierarchy, and Talisman of Indulgence for more ramp.
Shared Animosity, Fiery Emancipation, and City on Fire for buffs.
Reconnaissance to remove any creature your opponent blocks so it won't die, and Redoubled Stormsinger to double your tokens.
33 Lands is very low, especially since you have so little card draw and a high average cmc of 2.67. I recommend at least 38, if not 40 - you generally want to be playing a land every turn for the first 5 turns.
== CUT ==
Here are some cards I recommend cutting:
Aeronaut's Wings, Colossus Hammer, Greatsword of Tyr, Inquisitorial Rosette, Mardu Monument, Team Pennant, Amazing Alliance, Cartouche of Solidarity, Rally the Ranks, Shared Triumph, War Effort - Most of these provide modest buffs or require too much mana to use in one go. Most equipment are better in dedicated equipment builds, while Zurgo is generally more about going wide. If you do want to play equipment, I would recommend ones that provide utility (like Sword of the Animist, which you already have) or provide large buffs (like Blackblade Reforged). Cards that only buff your damage by 1 are generally underpowered.
Chromatic Lantern, Commander's Sphere - Your commander is 3-mana, so it is nice to have 2-mana ramp so you can still play your commander on curve.
Diabolic Tutor and Mastermind's Acquisition are a lot of mana for a tutor, and I would generally recommend cutting them.
Anywho, that's a lot, but let me know if any of it was helpful!

I saw your list and thought I would suggest a couple of ideas.
Since you're running fetch lands you could consider running some number of Godless Shrine and a long side of it, Silent Clearing. My reason is that you can then substitute Damnation with Damn, it's far better than Damnation due to it being both spot removal and a board-wipe when needed. Silent Clearing will also give you additional card draw in the late game and since you run fetch lands you could consider Fatal Push since you will have a decent number of opportunities to have revolt.
Another card you might want to consider is Withering Torment. It costs one more than Feed the Swarm, but is an instant and only costs you two life points. If you do consider my idea of running dual lands you could even go with Vindicate as an option. It would effectively fill the role of Feed the Swarm and Fulminator Mage at the same time, the only downside is that you can't recur it like Fulminator Mage. Another option would be Anguished Unmaking in place of Feed the Swarm. It would deal with every problematic non-land permanent and could potentially cost you less life than Feed the Swarm would.
I would also suggest looking at adding cards like Hopeless Nightmare, The Meathook Massacre and Kalitas, Traitor of Ghet. Hopeless nightmare will still give you control over your opponent's hand and will add to your devotion count. In the late game it can be sacrificed to scry away needless cards. If you play both The Meathook Massacre and Kalitas you end up having a very strong combo. You can clear the board with Kalitas in play and gain some life while creating zombie tokens.
If you wanted some additional ideas you can take a look at my list on my profile.
