Despite what big media propaganda, Deep State funded propaganda and illegal intruders want true citizens want us to believe, a look at America’s own state constitutions testify that our liberties were never meant to be lived apart from Almighty God.

At 250 years old, it is time for our nation to return to acting like the Christian nation she was founded as.

Our nation needs to return to humbly acknowledging God, seeking His favor, and living in righteousness before Him.

A quick look at how just some state constitutions openly acknowledged Him reveals this:

Alabama: “invoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God”

Alaska: “grateful to God and to those who founded our nation”

Arizona: “grateful to Almighty God for our liberties”

Arkansas: “grateful to Almighty God for the privilege of choosing our own form of government”

California: “grateful to Almighty God for our freedom”

Colorado: “with profound reverence for the Supreme Ruler of Universe”

Connecticut: “acknowledging with gratitude the good Providence of God”

Delaware: “Through Divine Goodness all men have… the rights of worshiping and serving their Creator”

Florida: “grateful to Almighty God for our constitutional liberty”

Georgia: “relying upon protection and guidance of Almighty God”

Hawaii: “Grateful for Divine Guidance”

Idaho: “grateful to Almighty God for our freedom”

Illinois: “grateful to Almighty God… and looking to Him for a blessing on our endeavors”

Indiana: “grateful to Almighty God for the free exercise of the right to choose our form of government”

Iowa: “grateful to the Supreme Being for the blessings hitherto enjoyed”

Kansas: “grateful to Almighty God for our civil and religious privileges”

Whatever makes men good Christians, makes them good citizens.

– Woodrow Wilson, 28th President of the United States; former president of Princeton University: Woodrow Wilson, “The Bible and Progress,” May 7, 1911. Overview:

America was founded as a Christian nation in the sense that our government structure, laws, moral principles, and early culture were deeply shaped by Christianity and by the Christian faith of our Founding Fathers who put their trust in Jesus Christ.

Though our nation has largely forgotten the God who blessed us, and though we often fail to live as a Christian nation today, our prayer is that these quotes and historical accounts will remind us of the Lord’s gracious hand upon America, stir our hearts to seek Him again, and inspire us to return to Him with humility, repentance, and faith.
