Yesterday on May 17, 2026, America’s Rededication 250 event was held in Washington, D.C. This national day of returning to the Lord as His Nation Under God was proclaimed by President Trump last February. He chose this date to commemorate the 250th anniversary of May 17, 1776. On that day, announced by the Continental Congress, the colonies of America humbled themselves in fasting and prayer before God, asking His guidance and help in their upcoming pursuit of liberty. Soon after this date, they would declare their independence.

In the Old Testament, God established every 50th year as a Jubilee, a year of restoration and liberation. This year marks the fifth Jubilee since America’s independence was declared. (Five–the number often associated in Hebrew with grace.) God pays attention to dates!

Yesterday’s Rededication as a Nation Under God is based on God’s promise in II Chronicles 7:14: “…and [if] My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” May 17, 2026 serves as a major turning point for America. From the time of President Trump’s proclamation of this day, many of God’s people prayed that God would protect the event, and none of the enemy’s tactics to stop it would prevail. Our prayers were answered–including the thwarting of another assassination attempt against the President last month.

Today, we rejoice! And so does all of heaven–as the Lord speaks in today’s word:
—

“Hear this word from Me, your Living God. Hear this word, oh America. For I AM not done with you yet. I have only just begun to clean out the filth of your nation. Yesterday you came to Me as a nation and decreed your will and desire to return this nation of America to the Lord your God. I have heard your decree. The heavens rejoiced. I and all My angels rejoiced.

“You through your obedience have thrust a powerful sword into the belly of your enemy. Do not let up on your prayers now, My People. For now the evil spirits over your nation are weakened. Now is your time to swoop in and beat them to the ground. Your declaration over America has set forth My angels to their individual tasks in returning America to be My Nation under God in all that you do. Understand Me now. You have set the stage in the heavenly realms for advancement and acceleration of My plans for America. Stay close to Me now as the battle increases. Satan and all his earthly cohorts through whom he works will certainly fight back. But they are already a defeated foe.

“The ramping up of the battle is from ME. I have always held the plans for the overturn of evil in the nation of America. I have promised you such overturn many times. I have spoken to you about tearing down old systems and replacing with My new and righteous systems for America. These form the height and depth and breath of the storm that your nation must now encounter and endure. A battle and a cleansing that will bring screams of fear and accusation from those without eyes to see what I AM doing. For those who have had no ears to listen to My words of warning and encouragement. You, My ekklesia, must now stand and shine out My Joy and Victory before them. You will have no reason to fear because I have spoken to you of these things. And I will always be with you as you go through this phase of your new birth of America.

“Most of all I require your utmost obedience and PRAISE of Me in this time. Often I have said to you – your PRAISE is a weapon. For PRAISE of Me weakens your enemy and sends them scattering. Your mouth full of PRAISE will keep fear out of your own minds and off of your own tongues. Your declarations of Me and what I AM doing in America must remain as words of PRAISE. Do not use your tongues to complain or to speak of fear and denial of My Victory in America. Use your tongues for My Kingdom and only My Kingdom. Remember My word to you as written: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.”

“Be excited, My ekklesia. Arise in the morning with Joy, go to bed with Joy. For my Joyful Promises will fill your days. You WILL see the evil in power over your nation come down. You WILL see My righteous ones arise to lead your nation. Continue praying and declaring the safety of the leader I have chosen for your nation at this time. And pray and declare the safety of those few righteous who serve with him. These must have great endurance and Faith to take your nation through the coming storm. They must follow My every lead. So do not cease to pray that they will have ears to hear My leading and eyes to see what I AM doing.

“All HONOR and PRAISE to the Lord your God, the creator and keeper of America – MY NATION UNDER GOD. Amen and Amen.”

Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.” The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our stronghold.
