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 8 - DAILY PRAYER (ADDICTION) - JUNE 1, 2011

June 1

Father God,

We come to your throne with great sorrow, beating our breasts and crying aloud... As a nation, we have fallen to the many temptations of Satan, which have become addictions of  the body and mind.  We have given ourselves over to drugs, sex, alcohol, gambling, pornography, and many other sins.  Instead of  giving ourselves in humble worship to you Lord, we have worshiped at the altars of these addictions.  We use Your money to finance these addictions, and have broken Your commandments to buy into Satan's lies.  Forgive us our sins Lord, and heal our bodies and minds of these horrible obsessions.  Let these addictions be broken in the name of Your Son, for whoever He sets free is free indeed (John 8:36). Send Your Holy Spirit to comfort those who are suffering from these addictions, and strengten their will to be set free.  Send a witness into these camps of the enemy to show them the light of salvation, both from addictions and for their eternal souls.  Protect those who might minister in these dark camps of the Devil, and strenthen all who fight against the spiritual oppression of addictions.  Heal our land as we repent of these sins as a nation, and allow your light to shine from this repentant nation as a beacon of hope to the world.

We break all chains of addiction in the precious name of your Son, Jesus Christ.  Amen!
