Penggunaan awal semboyan ini yang tercatat dalam bahasa Inggris dapat dilacak hingga Januari 1748 ketika ''[[The Pennsylvania Gazette]]'' melaporkan [[pasukan warna]] resimen Associators, yaitu dari milisi [[Provinsi Pennsylvania|Pennsylvania]] pimpinan [[Benjamin Franklin]] yang salah satu di antara pasukan warna bertuliskan "IX.

Pada tahun 1814, [[Francis Scott Key]] menyusun dan menerbitkan puisi berjudul "Pertahanan Benteng M'Henry". Dalam bait keempat, versi puisi Francis yang diterbitkan termasuk baris "And this be our motto―'In God is our trust!'" ("Dan ini menjadi semboyan kami, 'In God is our trust!'").<ref>{{Cite journal|date=November 1814|title=Defence of Fort M'Henry|url=https://archive.org/details/sim_analectic-magazine_1814-11_4/page/n80|journal=The Analectic Magazine|volume=4|pages=433–434|hdl=2027/umn.31951000925404p}}</ref> Puisi karya Francis ini nantinya diadopsi sebagai lagu kebangsaan Amerika Serikat dengan judul "[[The Star-Spangled Banner]]" dan berfungsi sebagai salah satu argumen untuk menyertakan semboyan ini pada mata uang.

Ketika Salmon sedang mempersiapkan usulannya kepada Kongres, ditemukan bahwa legislatif federal mengesahkan undang-undang yang menentukan semboyan dan perangkat yang harus dicap di uang logam Amerika Serikat pada 18 Januari 1837. Ini berarti pemberlakuan beberapa undang-undang tambahan diperlukan sebelum "In God We Trust" dapat diukir. Rancangan undang-undnag itu diperkenalkan dan disahkan dengan judul [[Undang-Undang Uang Logam 1864]] pada 22 April 1864 yang memungkinkan Menteri Keuangan untuk mengizinkan penyertaan frasa ini pada uang logam [[penny (uang logam Amerika Serikat)|penny]] (1 sen) dan [[2 sen (uang logam Amerika Serikat)|2 sen]].<ref name="USTreasury22" />

=== Agama ===
Dalam [[Agama Yahudi]] dan [[Kekristenan]], semboyan resmi "In God We Trust" tidak ditemukan kata demi kata dalam ayat mana pun dari [[Alkitab]], tetapi frasa ini sangat erat kaitannya dalam Perjanjian Lama {{ayat Alkitab|Mazmur|91|2}} yang berbunyi, "Aku akan berkata tentang TUHAN, Dia adalah perlindunganku dan bentengku: Allahku; kepada-Nya aku akan percaya" dan Perjanjian Baru dalam {{ayat Alkitab|2 Korintus|1|10}} yang berbunyi, "Yang melepaskan kita dari kematian yang begitu besar, dan yang melepaskan: kepada-Nya kita percaya bahwa Dia akan membebaskan kita." Konsep ini diparafrasekan dalam {{ayat Alkitab|Mazmur|118|8}}, {{ayat Alkitab|Mazmur|40|3}}, {{ayat Alkitab|Mazmur|73|28}}, and {{ayat Alkitab|Amsal|29|25}}.<ref>{{cite web|title=In God We Trust: The Motto|url=http://www.allabouthistory.org/in-god-we-trust.htm|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130216035526/http://www.allabouthistory.org/in-god-we-trust.htm|archive-date=2013-02-16|access-date=2013-02-26|publisher=All About History}}</ref> Menurut Philip Jenkins, seorang sejarawan agama, beberapa terjemahan Alkitab menerjemahkan Mazmur 56:11 sebagai "Pada Tuhan aku percaya; aku tidak akan takut",<ref>{{Cite web|title=The Scottish Metrical Psalter|url=http://www.cgmusic.org/workshop/smp_frame.htm|access-date=2021-05-29|website=www.cgmusic.org}}</ref> yang dapat menyebabkan penggantian "aku" pertama menjadi "kita".<ref name=":11" />
 
Dalam [[Islam]], [[tawakal]] merujuk kepada konsep keyakinan kepada Tuhan; frasa "kepada Tuhan kami yakin" secara harfiah ditemukan di dua surah, yaitu [[Surah Yunus]] dan {{quran-s|Al-A'raf|7|89}} serta beberapa ayat lainnya yang memperkuat konsep ini.<ref>{{cite web|title=Verses including the word Putting One's Trust in Allah (Tawakkul)|url=http://quranindex.net/kelime.php?id=8603|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161007144200/http://quranindex.net/kelime.php?id=8603|archive-date=2016-10-07|access-date=2016-06-16|publisher=Quran Index}}</ref> Sarjana Hindu Amerika Serikat Melkote Ramaswamy menulis bahwa kehadiran frasa "In God We Trust" pada mata uang Amerika Serikat adalah pengingat bahwa Tuhan ada di mana-mana terlepas dari kesadaran tiap orang.<ref>{{cite web|last=Ramaswamy|first=Melkote|date=2012-08-11|title=Faith/Values {{pipe}} Indianapolis Star|url=http://www.indystar.com/article/20120811/LIFE04/208110323/In-Hinduism-there-just-one-God-many-forms|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141019115759/http://www.indystar.com/article/20120811/LIFE04/208110323/In-Hinduism-there-just-one-God-many-forms|archive-date=2014-10-19|access-date=2014-02-04|publisher=indystar.com}}</ref>

Pada bulan Januari 2006, [[Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen]] dan istrinya Jackie menjadi peserta dalam ''[[Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?]]'' edisi pasangan selebritas [[Hari Kasih Sayang]]. Mereka muncul di acara itu dengan berhasil mencapai pertanyaan £1 juta, sebelum menjawabnya dengan salah dan turun dari £500.000 menjadi hanya £32.000 (kerugian £468.000). Celador mengizinkan Laurence dan istrinya mencoba kembali di acara itu setelah perusahaan itu mengklaim bahwa pertanyaan terakhir tidak memenuhi standar mereka. Pertanyaan yang diduga menyesatkan yaitu, "Diterjemahkan dari bahasa Latin, apa semboyan Amerika Serikat?" Jawaban yang diberikan oleh Laurence ialah "In God We Trust" yang aslinya berbahasa Inggris dan telah menjadi semboyan Amerika Serikat sejak tahun 1956. Jawaban yang dimaksud adalah "One Out of Many" yang merupakan terjemahan dari frasa bahasa Latin {{lang|la|[[E pluribus unum]]}} yang tidak pernah menjadi semboyan resmi Amerika Serikat.<ref name="secondchance22">{{cite news|date=2006-01-13|title=TV designer's second shot at £1m|work=[[British Broadcasting Corporation]]|url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4608690.stm|url-status=live|access-date=2015-05-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150725015341/http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/4608690.stm|archive-date=2015-07-25}}</ref>

=== Jajak pendapat ===
Menurut jajak pendapat bersama tahun 2003 oleh ''[[USA Today]]'', [[CNN]], dan [[The Gallup Organization|Gallup]], 90% orang Amerika Serikat mendukung pemajangan "In God We Trust" pada uang logam Amerika Serikat,<ref name="Poll22" /> tetapi jajak pendapat mahasiswa terbaru pada tahun 2019 oleh ''College Pulse'' yang dibuat untuk ''[[The College Fix]]'' menunjukkan bahwa lebih dari setengah mahasiswa mendukung penyertaan semboyan nasional dalam mata uang, dengan dua pertiga dari mereka yang mengaku mendukung Partai Demokrat menentang pemajangan semboyan ini dan 94% dari mereka yang mengaku mendukung Partai Republik menyetujui pemajangan semboyan ini.<ref name=":32" />
 
== Kontroversi ==
"In God We Trust" telah lama menjadi kontroversi sebagai semboyan resmi karena penentang menganggap semboyan ini sebagai pernyataan agama dan karenanya bertentangan dengan [[pemisahan agama dan negara]].

=== Proses pengadilan ===
Sifat konstitusional frasa "In God We Trust" telah berulang kali ditegakkan menurut penafsiran hukum dari akomodasionisme yang penganutnya menyatakan bahwa praktik yang mengakar ini secara historis tidak menghadirkan kesulitan konstitusional, tidak memaksa, dan tidak lebih memilih satu denominasi agama daripada lainnya.<ref name="Views22">{{cite book|author=Richard H.

Meskipun tidak secara langsung terkait dengan semboyan ini, ''[[Engel v. Vitale]]'' menimbulkan banyak spekulasi tentang masa depan pemajangan "In God We Trust" di muka umum. Dalam putusannya, Mahkamah Agung membatalkan undang-undang [[New York]] yang mendorong sekolah umum untuk membacakan doa seperti yang tertulis dalam undang-undang negara bagian dengan alasan [[Amendemen Pertama Konstitusi Amerika Serikat|Amendemen Pertama]].

Serangkaian tuntutan hukum yang mencoba melarang pemajangan "In God We Trust" diajukan [[Michael Newdow]] dengan dukungan [[Freedom From Religion Foundation]]. Michael dikenal karena kasus sebelumnya ''[[Elk Grove Unified School District v.

Seorang hakim federal di [[California]] menolak alasannya dalam putusan pada Juni 2006 dan kesimpulan yang sama diputuskan Wilayah Kesembilan Pengadilan Tinggi Federal. Karena Mahkamah Agung menolak [[certiorari|surat perintah]], keputusan pengadilan banding yang mengatakan bahwa semboyan nasional bersifat patriotik atau seremonial tidak memiliki dampak teologis atau ritualistik dan bukan merupakan sponsor pemerintah untuk kegiatan keagamaan, tetap tidak berubah dan berlaku.<ref>{{Cite news|last=Egelko|first=Bob|date=2011-03-08|title='In God We Trust' suit rejected by Supreme Court|work=[[San Francisco Chronicle]]|url=http://www.sfgate.com/nation/article/In-God-We-Trust-suit-rejected-by-Supreme-Court-2471527.php|access-date=2021-08-09|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180213222045/https://www.sfgate.com/nation/article/In-God-We-Trust-suit-rejected-by-Supreme-Court-2471527.php|archive-date=2018-02-13}}</ref> Gugatan yang diajukan oleh Michael dan Freedom from Religion Foundation pada tahun 2013 di New York juga gagal, baik di pengadilan dan banding ke Wilayah Kedua Pengadilan Tinggi Federal.<ref>{{cite web|title=Lawsuit to remove 'In God We Trust' from money gets dismissed - KSL.com|url=http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=1016&sid=26823999&fm=most_popular|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180224232917/https://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=1016&sid=26823999&fm=most_popular|archive-date=2018-02-24|access-date=2018-02-24|work=ksl.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite news|last=Volokh|first=Eugene|date=2014-05-28|title="In God We Trust" on currency +violate the First Amendment or the Religious Freedom Restoration Act|work=[[Washington Post]]|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/volokh-conspiracy/wp/2014/05/28/in-god-we-trust-on-currency-doesnt-violate-the-first-amendment-or-the-religious-freedom-restoration-act/|access-date=2021-06-01}}</ref> Gugatan dari pihak yang sama kembali diajukan di Ohio pada tahun 2016 juga ditolak oleh [[Pengadilan Distrik Amerika Serikat untuk Distrik Utara Ohio]] dan [[Pengadilan Tinggi Federal Amerika Serikat untuk Wilayah Keenam|Wilayah Keenam Pengadilan Tinggi Federal]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=New Doe Child #1 v.
