The first of many federal efforts to strengthen America’s religious identity has begun. Rededicate 250—with its national Sunday worship ceremony and widespread calls for revival—was one major example of religion being elevated at the federal level. But these efforts will not be limited to symbolic religious expressions alone; they will also include calls for federal legislation. In other words, the movement to revive religion through the federal government will increasingly manifest itself through legislative proposals, public acts of worship, and policies designed to promote America’s religious identity in national life.
In conjunction with Rededicate 250, a new federal proposal called the “In God We Trust Act” was announced by Rep. Mary Miller on May 14, 2026, through an official press release. The legislation calls for the national motto, “In God We Trust,” to be prominently displayed in every federal building across America within one year. [1] According to the press release, the bill is being celebrated in direct connection with the Rededicate 250 celebration on May 17, 2026—a nationwide Sunday worship event calling America back to public religion, prayer, worship, and national spiritual renewal.
What makes this event prophetically significant is the growing use of federal power to promote religious identity as part of the United States’ national mission. The federal government is gradually becoming a platform for religious nationalism, in which political leaders, the clergy, and public institutions unite around the idea that the United States must restore faith as a guiding principle of national life.
This represents a drastic shift in the role of government. Historically, the United States Constitution was designed to keep the state neutral in religious matters—neither establishing a religion nor interfering with the free exercise thereof. America’s Founding Fathers understood firsthand that whenever civil power allies itself with religious movements, freedom of conscience ultimately suffers. However, today we are witnessing a growing movement that seeks to redefine the United States as a nation whose political future should be guided by religion and by public acts of worship.
The timing is also revealing. This bill comes just before Rededicate 250, an event already filled with calls for revival, repentance, national worship, miracles, and spiritual renewal. The very movement urging the United States to rededicate itself to God is, in turn, normalizing the idea that the government should publicly promote religion at the national level. According to prophecy, this will ultimately lead to greater cooperation between church and state, as well as increasing support for religious practices.
