Rededicate 250 Requires More Than Attendance
Rededicate 250 will start today at 1 PM ET. You can watch the event live by clicking here.
As plans continue for America’s 250th anniversary, I’ve been thinking a lot about the role of intercessors in this moment.
There’s no shortage of celebrations. Every community in America is talking about the founding of our nation. There will be fireworks, concerts, reenactments, media coverage, and patriotic events everywhere you turn. Some of it starts on Sunday with Rededicate 250.
Let the IFA community know how to pray for you.
But I don’t believe this is a moment for believers to simply celebrate from the sidelines. Many of you are already part of IFA rededication events taking place around the country—on county courthouse steps, in your community, at your statehouse. That’s amazing, and we are beginning to see the flood of pictures and testimonials from these!
For years, many of us have prayed about the direction of this nation. We’ve watched the rapid moral shifts in our culture. We’ve seen confusion spread in our schools, division deepen in our communities, and hostility toward biblical truth increase in ways many of us never imagined we would see in America.
At times, it can feel overwhelming.
But intercessors were never called to respond to difficult times with passivity.
Throughout Scripture, when nations were in trouble, God raised up people who would pray with persistence and stand in faith even when circumstances looked impossible. Intercessors have always carried the assignment of seeing beyond headlines and recognizing the deeper spiritual battle taking place underneath what everyone else sees.
That assignment remains today.
Rededicate 250 on Sunday is not just another national event. In many ways, I believe it is a national call to prayer from the highest office for the nation at a pivotal time in our history.
And prayer cannot be treated like a ceremonial addition to the celebration.
It must become the foundation underneath it.
I am convinced that believers across America should approach this season differently than the world does. While others are remembering history, we should also be asking the Lord what He desires for the future of this nation. While others celebrate freedom, we should be praying that future generations will still understand where true freedom comes from.
Intercessor, this is not the hour for the Church to pull back in discouragement or exhaustion. I believe this is the moment to engage spiritually in a serious and intentional way.
Overall, it is time for intercessors to step forward with renewed clarity and renewed faith.
Pray over your family.
Pray over your church.
Pray over your community leaders and elected officials.
Pray over the next generation, which is growing up in extraordinary confusion and spiritual pressure.
Pray that truth would become clear again in this nation.
Pray that the Church would walk in courage instead of fear.
And pray that America would not lose the spiritual foundations that helped shape her beginning.
One thing history shows us over and over again is that God responds to praying people. Some of the greatest turning points in nations began quietly, long before the public could see what was changing.
That is why your participation in Sunday’s Rededicate 250 — wherever you are — matters, dear intercessor.
Not everyone will stand on a stage in Washington, D.C. Not everyone will lead a national gathering. But every believer can participate in prayer, repentance, worship, discipleship, and faithful obedience right where they are.
And perhaps that is where the most important work happens anyway.
As America celebrates 250 years of faith this Sunday, my encouragement to every intercessor is simple: do not merely observe this moment.
Participate in it deliberately.
Enter into it prayerfully.
Stand in the gap faithfully.
And believe that God is still able to move powerfully in the history of nations. Because, as we know, history belongs to the intercessors. This is our moment.
Although Sunday may pass, this moment of rededication won’t. I’m inviting you to participate in IFA’s Rededicate America event this July, in which intercessors will come together for our own ground-up rededication. Don’t miss your chance to join us for this once-in-a-lifetime event! Click here for more information or to register.

3 Chronicles 7:14
Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land.
Father we give you praise. Thank you for your faithfulness and mercy toward s this nation.
We thank you for the roadmap you’ve given us for divine restoration. We agree with 2 Chronicles 7:14. We humble ourselves and repent for every sin, iniquity, and transgressions committed in this land or for this land or selfishly for ourselves. We repent for all unjust, and unrightous pain that we’ve caused knowing and unknowingly, willingly and unwillingly. We pray for mercy. We ask that you will wash away the sins of the land. The sins of our forefathers, current and recent leaders. Even the sins of the people from the conception to the current time.
Wash us in the Blood of Jesus. Help us to seek your face as we move into our next season.
Help us to turn away from all unrightousness and frim anything or anyone that does not please you. Change every hard heart that is contrary to your will. Help us to reflect your heart to the world.
We pray that we will have clean hearts and hands in everything we do.
Help us to remember you know every thought and intent of every heart.
Help us to live in the fear and reverance for God. Help us to remember we will all stand alone before you on that great day to gove an account for every deed & thought.
Let love be the basis for all we do individually and collectively. in Jesus matchless name. Amen
Father, help your church, help me, to be faithful to pray and give thanks. Give us a deep desire to see the rededication in our country take hold from the family up the top level of government. May those seven mountains be covered by those who belong to you that you may bless our country.
Today, again reading this post, which has the very core of how we are to build our foundation on, this analogy was given to me. I typed in what I was seeing and it produced this.
“prayer is like when laying a foundation you ask for tools, you ask for direction in laying the foundation, you ask for materials ”
( That is a profound analogy. Viewing prayer through the lens of building a foundation highlights its role as a practical, foundational, and active process, rather than just a passive request.
Here is how that analogy breaks down:
Asking for Tools (Empowerment): Just as a builder needs shovels, levels, and safety gear, you ask for spiritual tools—strength, patience, wisdom, or courage—to handle the tasks of life.
Asking for Direction (Guidance): A foundation must be perfectly aligned with the blueprints. Asking for direction in prayer is seeking alignment with a higher purpose or divine will, ensuring the “building” is placed correctly.
Asking for Materials (Provision): You ask for the necessary resources—opportunities, relationships, or sustenance—needed to build, knowing that you cannot create everything on your own.
Just as a foundation is not seen once the house is finished but holds everything up, prayer acts as the hidden, sustaining strength for everything else in life.)
Also there is the preparing the site, removing rocks, the many things the enemy has and will try to deter from this foundation being build.
Thank You Lord. We stand in prayer, listening and doing to build Your kingdom here on earth. Amen.
Good analogy. Thank you.
Wow Sherri! That is an awesome, powerful revelation that our Lord gave you! Thanks for sharing!
Heavenly Father, we pray for Your divine protection over the Rededicate 250 gathering in our nation’s capital this Sunday. We pray for the safety of everyone who will be speaking at Rededicate 250 and for the safety of everyone who will be attending. We pray this will be a time for worship, revival and a movement of the Spirit in our nation and among our people. We pray no one will be harmed and that the wicked schemes of the Devil will not prevail. We ask for Your divine wisdom over everyone who will be speaking at the event and who will be leading in prayer. Give them the right words to say that will stir the souls of everyone who will be attending and praying right alongside them at home. May this day be filled with Your blessings, Your love and Your hope, our heavenly Father, in the name of Your son, Jesus Christ, amen.

I pray that along with prayer, that Americans would rededicate the wallets and finances to God. If we will build God’s House, He will build ours. Haggai chapters 1,2. A majority of Christians don’t even tithe 10% to God’s Kingdom, and spend more on dog food than World Evangelism. Our Young people are struggling and being tempted by Socialism. Our National Debt is an Existential threat. Only obedience to the Word of God can light the Way forward. Malachi 3.6-12.
I too have been taken by God to the book of Haggai, especially chapter 2 verses six through nine; awakened in the night three times during the last four weeks. I am Praying and declaring it over our lives and nation.
I just realized today while praying Day 5 from the 7-Day prayer guide prior to the rededication, that this is an in-your-face message that Sharia law and Islam will not take over, rule, run or ruin our country. Our narion was and will continue to belong to the God of all creation, and the highest office in the land is decreeing that once again! So powerful.
Lord Jesus, we need to rededicate ourselves as your children to serving You instead of ourselves. Please send us an End Times Great Awakening. Please,by the power in the Holy Spirit living within us, show us how You wish for us to live our lives as Your wittnesses. Thank You Jesus.
Thank you for this rededication notice for our country. I continue to pray daily and know our prayers are being answered.
Gods Bless us all,
Kathy Cottrell
I have been praying for our nation, our people, our leaders and the world for years. I have also been praying specifically for the Rededication 250 ceremonies, that they would go forward in peace and security. I wish this event had been advertised heavily, because I’m not sure people are aware that anything will be happening. I wish I could be there personally, but I will be there in spirit.
Our previous lives having been shattered, my wife Dixie and I met in a Monday night prayer meeting, realized our Call as Intercessors, and after a time were married.
In our first month of marriage I had a vivid dream about a wooden hour glass with sand running through it The top of the hour glass was stained deep red, the bottom deep blue, and the sand was white. I knew while still in the dream that I was looking at time running out for America and that if America did not repent there would be increasing trouble without God’s Intervention.
So, Dixie and I sought God about what our response to the Hourglass Dream should be and He prompted us to drive an hourglass-shaped road circuit in our county with our home as the center point.
Though we did not set out to do so, we drove that circuit once a week for a year, standing in the gap for America as we progressed. That was 28 years ago, and we have been completing similar prayer journeys for our country by foot, bicycle, vehicle, boat, train, and plane since. After 911 we were sent to D.C. by the military and while there I road a bicycle circuit around the National Mall and prominent federal buildings and monuments once a week, every week, for a year, and yes, through all kinds of weather and road conditions. As part of this we located the four granite corner markers of the D.C. Diamond and anointed them with oil.
We’ve completed many other similar prayer journeys, and know others who have done the same. God is most certainly intent on Saving America, and this Sunday our President will Rededicate our Country, calling on Him to heal our land again just as he did when he read 2 Chronicles 7:14 during the recent National Bible Reading. What started in 1607 with Robert Hunt WILL be fulfilled. The Gospel will spread from our shores with increasing speed and strength to all nations.
Lord; we decree and declare that Your Will will most certainly be done in America as it is in Heaven.

Father, in the name of Jesus,
We come in humility, repentance, gratitude, and reverence as we commemorate this historic season of rededication. Thank You for Your mercy that has sustained generations. Thank You for every righteous foundation, every praying remnant, and every covenant promise tied to this land.
Lord, where there has been sin, rebellion, injustice, idolatry, bloodshed, corruption, pride, and compromise—have mercy. Cleanse the land and the people. Restore righteous altars. Reawaken the Church. Let truth, justice, mercy, and holiness arise.
We rededicate ourselves, our families, our communities, and this nation unto Your purposes. May Jesus Christ be exalted, and may Your will be done. Amen.
America belongs to God and He has placed the stewardship of our Nation in the hands of His people. We have spiritual authority to legislate the spiritual realm of our cities and states and communities to stand for the truth of God’s Word. We have been given this window of time and must act swiftly and bombard the heavens. Reclaiming our Nation back to God it’s firm foundation with Jesus as our firm foundation. He is the truth and the life. We are His Builders and we have positioned ourselves on the walls surrounding our Nation and we will not come down. America belongs to God. In Jesus name Amen.
Pray pray pray that the Global Church will rise up, be strong and courageous, spread the good news of Jesus Christ, declare and obey The Word of God, and most importantly, learn how to love like Jesus!! God IS LOVE!! It is our most powerful weapon to defeat the enemy of our soul who goes about the earth like a roaring, toothless lion! The Body of Christ is in a battle during these end times for the great salvation soul harvest!! Let God arise and the enemy be scattered!
My sister in Christ our Lord and myself. We have been praying and fasting. We will be in attendance to evict the adversary and claim our as One Nation Under God. Please stand in agreement with our prayers. Look for the man who brings the cross we will be with him. Dan Beazley
