Pledge of Allegiance of the United States

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."


In 1954, in response to the Communist threat of the times, President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge we say today. Today it reads:

"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

Section 4 of the Flag Code states:

The Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag: "I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.", should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. When not in uniform men should remove any non-religious headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute."

DAY 32 - DAILY PRAYER (THE STREETS) - JUNE 25, 2010





Anyway, what I'm seeing from here in Tacoma is a breakthrough of hope destroying despair. It's really spreading out, but there's a definite difference in the spiritual atmosphere here vs. Seattle. We've been mostly working with homeless/addicts/mentally ill people. The work that's being done by the body here through food, prayer, help, ministry, and just straight up love-of-Jesus is really making an impact. Really, the hope comes from becoming "not condemned" and "not punishable" through a relationship with our Creator.

Father,

I'm praying for 'that hope' to continue to come through His body everywhere; that we can reach the lost through the love in our hearts, without judgment or condemnation. I'm praying that revival comes from the streets; I don't think it will start in the church buildings.


In Jesus' name. Amen
