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 33 - DAILY PRAYER (PRAYER AGAINST STEALING) - JUNE 26, 2013

June 26

Dear Lord, You give me everything I need and more. You give me

food, clothes, and a family. You give me friends, a church, and love.

Please help me to never dishonor You by stealing. Help me to

become a giver and not a taker. Help me to have open hands, not

hands that sneak and take things. I want to be known as one of

Your special people. Thank You for making me one of Your

treasures! 

In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
