Tonight at 8 p.m., Republican members of the U.S. House of Representatives will gather on the chamber floor for a public declaration of faith, celebrating prayer, praise, and thanksgiving as Washington prepares to rededicate America as “One Nation Under God.”

Rep. Josh Brecheen, R-Okla., will be joined by Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., and Republican members as he leads them in prayer and a scripture reading on the House floor after votes Tuesday night.

Brecheen will read from the Old Testament, ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬–‭20‬, which calls believers to “remember the Lord your God.”

“You shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God by walking in his ways and by fearing him. For the Lord your God is bringing you into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and springs, flowing in the valleys and hills,” Deuteronomy 8:6–7 states.
