DAILY DEVOTIONAL MONDAY JANUARY 9, 2023

(I Samuel 4:2; James 1:5)

***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Lord, keep my mind free of the filth of this world. Cleanse it each day with Your Word and let my thoughts be Your thoughts. Help me this day to dwell on You and Your love as I live my life for Your glory. In the name of Jesus I pray…AMEN! *Salvation message from Ground Zero: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqZ9oaqJNJg

***RETURNED MAIL/DAILY DEVOTIONAL BLOCKS! For some reason our Post Office sent back to sender some of our mail during the Christmas week when a sub was in for our regular carrier. If you sent a donation to Liveprayer during that time, keep an eye out for it and please just re-send it. Thank you! Also, some Yahoo and AOL people may have missed the last Daily Devotional. They were blocking our emails the other night but our techs seem to have gotten it taken care of. Don’t forget the Daily Devotional is always ! on the
Liveprayer.com homepage. Blessings!

***THE DAILY LIVEPRAYER TV NUGGET: Our Ukrainian puppet, the corrupt Mr. Zelenskyy, called the new Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy to congratulate him. It was also a call to remind McCarthy that he and the people of Ukraine were counting on the new House majority to continue the US support of Ukraine. Translation, KEEP THE BILLIONS FLOWING! I have no idea what McCarthy said to him, but my reply would have been this, “President Zelenskyy, we are rooting for you. First, we need to AUDIT every dime we have sent to your country in the past year. During that time, if you could help me by sharing the total amount of money “the big guys” boy Hunter took out of Ukraine that would help us. Also, if you could share how much money other US politicians have taken out of Ukraine that would also be helpful. Once you get me that info and our audit is complete, we will let you know about future aid.” As the cartoons often! say, RUH RO!
Will that happen? NO!!!! Why? Because both Dems and Republicans are equally corrupt and have been sucking dollars out of Ukraine! However, the good news is there is a group in the House who WILL NOT agree to one more dime of aid to Ukraine until we get these answer. RUH RO!!!!!!!

Show me a war general who never lost a battle and I will show you a war general who has never been in a battle. Show me a football coach who never lost a game and I’ll show you a coach who has never coached a game. Show me a businessman who has never had a bad deal and I will show you a businessman who has never been involved in any deals.

As great as Tiger Woods was at playing golf in his prime, even he didn’t win every tournament. Life my friend is made up of winning and losing. The only way you can’t lose is to not ever get out there and try. Today, I want to encourage and challenge you to learn from those defeats you experience along your journey through this life.

We live in a world, in a culture, that celebrates! winning no
matter what is at stake. Watching Tiger Woods win 17 majors epitomized the fact that we love those who win. Athletes and sports teams are celebrated and adored for winning. Winners in the business world are measured by the amount of money they make. The business leaders of our day who we look up to are those who close the big deals, create the cutting edge technology, and end up on the Forbes list of richest people.

Winners in the world of entertainment are the ones who have the most successful movies, the most watched TV programs, the ones who sell the most CDs, the ones who are known by people throughout the world. At the end of every war there is a winner and a loser.

Politics at every level is about one thing, getting elected or winning. Winning and losing is actually part of every person’s day-to-day life whether it is dealing with your finances, what happens at school or on your job, or something as mundane as getting the parking place right by the door to! the mall
instead of 12 rows back.

We live in a world and society that measures pretty much everything we do in terms of winning and losing.

One of the cold realities of life is that you can’t win all the time. Along the way you will suffer defeats in everything. While losing is never fun and nobody enjoys losing, the key issue that I want to address today is that you can learn much from those occasions when you lose.

Rather than allowing the defeats you experience in life to demoralize you, to depress you, to paralyze you, take the opportunity to analyze why you lost so that you can do better the next time. We can often learn more about ourselves in defeat than we can in victory. Not only does defeat keep us humble, but it forces us to do better the next time.

This way society has of judging our lives in wins and losses even carries over into our Christian life. Recently I did a Devotional on the fact that there is no failure with God. The only way to fail G! od is to
do nothing for God. Even though the world may consider something we do for the Lord a failure, the world does not factor in things like our obedience, our faithfulness, not to mention the spiritual things taking place that only God knows about.

However, we can never lose sight that even in our service for the Lord we are engaged in battles, both in the natural and spiritual realm, that we are trying to win to bring glory and honor to the Lord.

Very few could ever understand the level of warfare I have learned to assimilate in my daily life over these past 23+ years as a result of bringing God’s Truth to over 2.5 million souls worldwide every day through the Internet and the tens of thousands more every night on the TV program. I fully understand why other ministries stay in the safety of the church and Christian TV networks.

Financially, Liveprayer has been an absolute miracle of God. We never should have survived the first year after the venture funds we ! expected
6 months in dried up as a result of the dot.com bubble bursting in early 2000. However, God sustained the work, allowed us to expand and reach more people each year through the Internet, add the TV program to the mix which continued to expand, and over time not only stay current with our financial obligations.

I love you and care about you so much. God clearly honored our faith to follow Him in using the internet and the TV program to transform lives for all eternity. Over the years we have dealt with some defeats, but It was in defeat that I found the comfort of God’s love and His strength to press forward. It was in defeat that whatever commitment I had made to the Lord to boldly take His Truth and the hope of Christ to the nation was now solidified and I became resolute in fulfilling His call upon my life.

YOU CAN EITHER LET THE DEFEATS IN LIFE INTIMIDATE YOU FROM EVER REACHING YOUR GOALS, OR YOU CAN USE THE DEFEATS IN LIFE TO MOTIVATE YOU TO VICTORY!!!

I will
be praying for you today. Praying that you will remember that there is no failure with God. Don’t fear stepping out in faith to fulfill whatever it is God has called you to do with your life. I will also be praying that you will realize that we all win and lose along our journey through this life. Losing is no fun, but use those moments as opportunities to correct your mistakes and work on those areas you are weak. Don’t let the defeats you experience in life get you down, but use them as learning opportunities so that you can do better the next time.

We all enjoy winning, but never forget that we can learn the most from our defeats.

Of course, the one defeat you will suffer from for all eternity is rejecting Jesus Christ as your Savior. The most important victory in your life comes when you accept Christ into your heart and life by faith and have your sins washed away and receive the free gift of everlasting life. If you have never experienced that victory, I e! ncourage
you to go to: https://www.liveprayer.com/salvation.cfm

Pray, ask God to open your heart to the truth of the words there, and make the choice today to ask Jesus Christ into your heart and life by faith. Coming to know Jesus as your personal Savior is the greatest victory there is, since it is one you will enjoy for all eternity!!!

In His love and service,

Your friend and brother in Christ,

Bill Keller
