“The Pilgrim Legacy” by Derek Prince articulates the biblical principle of sowing a tiny mustard seed of faith and reaping a harvest for eternity. As the Bible says, the Church is a bride and a city. Its identity is in Christ and its responsibility is to be the salt and light of the world. When the Pilgrims fasted and prayed, faith germinated to guide the growth of America.
The real Pilgrim legacy is one of faith, birthed in the heart and soul of America by a loving God through His Son, Jesus Christ.
President Ronald Reagan spoke of America as “a city set on a hill” – (Matthew 5:15) – “And she’s still a beacon, still a magnet for all who must have freedom, for all the pilgrims from all the lost places who are hurtling through the darkness, toward home.”
How did America become the greatest and most powerful nation in the world, a beacon light for lost pilgrims? America’s great power and shining beacon of light comes only from an undying faith in the living God.
America was born as a representative republic, a land ruled by laws and principles, embedded in the Constitution, hewn by men of great calibre and wisdom, guided by the eternal truths of God’s Word. Although the light of America still shines, reflecting the Light of the World, Jesus Christ, the nation is turning from its biblical foundations of honoring God and His Word, to favoring the dark philosophy of secular humanism.
God has used America to bless the whole world, and countless people came to America to become citizens, including Derek Prince, an intelligent scholar and Bible teacher from England. As he learned of the Pilgrims’ heroic struggle for religious freedom that led to the birth of Amery, the truths he encountered profoundly impacted his own life. Derek was firmly convinced that the legacy of the Pilgrims must be told, an unforgettable saga never to be erased from America’s history. This book is dedicated to the Pilgrims and their unfading light – the Light of Jesus Christ – ignited in their hearts forever.
Quoting from Scripture, Derek Prince focuses on the historical record of the Pilgrims, especially from the famous work by William Bradford, “Of Plymouth Plantation.” The truths of the Pilgrim narratives prove that the foundational principles in the Christian faith can be applied practically to America today, and to this crucial time in world history.
Derek Prince’s imagination was fired by the biblical story of how God, through Abraham, transformed a small band of sojourners in a foreign land into a great nation. With strikingly parallel similarity, Derek’s imagination was captivated by the unique story of how a small band of Europeans, the Pilgrims, called by God, also sojourned in a foreign land to become a great nation. Read “The Pilgrim Legacy” to learn the foundational principles of the great American nation and its people.

A story that must not be erased from America’s history or from the public squares of nations worldwide…
“In all the history of the world, as nations have arisen and fallen amid endless war and bloodshed, the founding of America was utterly unique,” writes Derek Prince. “Reaching the shores of an unknown wilderness, a small group of people planted seeds—not of military might, or wealth, or power, but seeds of faith and freedom. And those seeds took hold and grew.”
Such seeds affect the destinies of nations.
A nation participates in shaping its own destiny through the process of sowing and reaping: what nations sow, they will reap. If they seek to align themselves with God’s purposes, they will experience His favor and blessing. But if they seek to align themselves with purposes that are in opposition to God’s, they will not prosper
Who were the Pilgrims? Why did they come to America? What difference did they make in the history of our country—and what does their legacy tell us about our country’s destiny?
The seeds sown by our Pilgrim ancestors 400 years ago continue to influence our culture and government. The basic principles by which they lived—beliefs in personal liberty, freedom of religion, and living in covenant with others—laid a strong foundation for America’s religious and political freedom. Without question, what the Pilgrims sowed, America has reaped as an abundant harvest.
Yet how long will the blessing of the Pilgrims’ influence continue? The light of this nation is still shining. But something is going wrong. Like a heavy, unanticipated fog, a spiritual darkness is gradually moving in to dim that light.
In The Pilgrim Legacy, internationally recognized Bible teacher and scholar Derek Prince discloses the biblical principles and tools at work in the lives of this small group of Christians who were, in a sense, the spiritual ancestors of the United States. It was these principles that not only helped to establish the nation but enabled America to be a stepping-stone in spreading the light of the gospel of the kingdom around the world.
By discovering and implementing the principles by which the Pilgrims lived, we can continue The Pilgrim Legacy today and preserve the spiritual destiny of our nation.
