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."

“No More Bow or Sword Trusting”
Posted on February 28, 2013 by katherine


David said in Psalm 44:6, “I do not trust in my bow; I do not count on my sword to save me.”

What are you trusting in to save you? Job, money, spouse, church, talent, 401-K, stocks or bonds, savings account, or government.

David fought a lion, a bear, & a giant named Goliath. He realized, “God is the one who gives the victory.”

Whatever you are fighting today, guess what? You Win with God!!

We won’t trust in anything or anyone, but the One who gives us the Victory because He already won the victory! You can put your complete trust in God! He has been tried & true!

Say with me now, “We will trust in the name of the Lord, Our God!”
