United in prayer for our nation

Prayer Force USA

Believers across America connecting in steady, Scripture-centered prayer—mindful of our history, faithful in our generation, and watchful for those to come.

Two ways to take your place. One united purpose. You may join through one Branch—or both.
What is Prayer Force USA?

One identity. Two expressions. Shared mission.

Prayer Force USA is a united prayer network—believers across America taking their place in intercession for our nation.

All who participate belong to Prayer Force USA. Standing in the Gap and The Prayer Watch are two expressions of the same shared mission.

Prayer begins by turning our eyes upward. From the beginning, this land’s story has included appeals for God’s help and guidance.

Our Foundations

Rooted in history; faithful in practice

The United States stands apart from other nations in a defining respect. Unlike nations that adopted Christianity after centuries of existence, many of the earliest settlements that eventually became the United States undertook a treacherous voyage to a distant land for the freedom to worship as Christians. These communities were founded with a singular purpose: to live out their faith—making America’s Christian roots not merely a matter of history, but a deliberate and profound choice.

From the Pilgrims in 1620 to the Continental Congress in 1774, American leaders publicly sought God’s guidance and blessing for future generations. Prayer Force USA continues that legacy.

We Are Not
  • Aligned with any political party
  • Driven by outrage or division

Present Day

Faithful in every generation.

The watch is ours now.


Standing in the Gap

Standing to face the moment

  • When the moment demands prayer
  • When leadership requires wisdom
  • When our nation needs clarity

Standing in the Gap is the original expression of Prayer Force USA—topical, Scripture-based prayer focused on current national events and pressing issues. The format is fluid. We don’t watch the clock; Prayer Warriors join and depart sessions as schedules allow.


The Prayer Watch

Weekly, structured prayer for enduring themes

As America approaches 250 years of freedom, we join the national call reflected in the America Prays initiative — not as spectators, but as participants.

The Prayer Watch is a weekly call to stand watch in prayer for our nation. Rooted in Scripture and united in purpose, we gather around enduring themes — leadership, families, justice, mercy, and renewal.

The Invitation

Join us each week online — from your home or wherever you are — for one focused hour of united prayer. Together, we will lift the nation before God with clarity and conviction.

The Prayer Watch gathers weekly at a scheduled time announced in advance.

The Hour We Have Been Given

This anniversary is more than celebration. It is a moment to rededicate ourselves to the principles that gave birth to this land of liberty.

As President George Washington warned in his Farewell Address:

“Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports. In vain would that man claim the tribute of patriotism who should labor to subvert these great pillars of human happiness, these firmest props of the duties of men and citizens.”

The strength of a nation rests not only in its institutions, but in the character of its people. This hour of prayer is an act of stewardship — for our generation and for those to come.


Historical Anchors

Faith expressed publicly

George Washington, Inaugural Address (1789)

“It would be peculiarly improper to omit, in this first official act, my fervent supplications to that Almighty Being…”

11 Nov 1620

Mayflower Compact

“…for the Glory of God, and advancement of the Christian Faith…”

1630 — John Winthrop, aboard the Arbella

“A City Upon a Hill”

“For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us. So that if we shall deal falsely with our God in this work we have undertaken, and so cause Him to withdraw His present help from us, we shall be made a story and a by-word through the world.”
