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 9 - DAILY BIBLE VERSE (THE LORD'S PRAYER) - JUNE 2, 2014

June 2

Galatians 5:13-14

You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather, serve one another in love.  The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."

DAY 9 - DAILY PRAYER (THE STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE) - JUNE 2, 2014

June 2

Most Heavenly Father, today we thank you for the state of New Hampshire.  The men and women who originally founded this state were seeking freedom; freedom from rule by Britain and freedom of religion. They came to America to freely worship You are their God, and sought you in all aspects of their daily lives.  The modern day principles of New Hampshire have eroded greatly since it's beginning, and the people have turned to other gods.  Forgive the people of New Hampshire from wandering away from You, and bring a great revival upon their land.  Allow the people to repent of their ways, and to establish a new and greater relationship with You and Your Son.

Father, we ask that a new spirit of morality would settle upon the land, and that the people of New Hampshire would turn from their wicked ways.  That marriage would be restored to Your vision, being one man and one woman.  That life would be valued and protected from the point of conception.  That there would be a revival in the dynamics of families across New Hampshire, eliminating divorce and single parent families.

We pray for the church of New Hampshire, that they would return to a relationship with You based upon Your word.  That the churches and their leaders would restore morality and righteousness to their denominations.  Where the lines of Holiness have been almost erased, that they would be retraced according to Your will and commands.  And that churches would cast their light out into the dying world for all to see.

Lord, bring about peace and order in the government of the land, from the office of Governor Maggie Hassan, all the way through the legislative and judicial branches of the state government.  Fill the seats with people who follow Your commands, and those who believe in Your Son.  Protect those who serve the people of New Hampshire in service and protection roles.  

We pray for the education system of the state of New Hampshire.  That they would fall back to the times of teaching from the word of God, vs. evolution.  That all training materials would be revised to allow the viewpoint of creation, and that prayer would be allowed back into the schools.  Protect the innocent lives of children across the state, as they attend school throughout the week.  And we especially pray for the Holy Spirit to touch more hearts in the children throughout New Hampshire.

Father, we leave these requests at Your throne, and know that You can change the spiritual atmosphere in New Hampshire.  Bring about a new focus on the 'Live Free, or Die" motto, and have the focus directed to living free in a relationship with you, where death has no sting because of Your Son.  In Jesus' mighty and precious name.  Amen
