CELEBRATING 25 YEARS OF LIVEPRAYER!
DAILY DEVOTIONAL MONDAY AUGUST 26, 2024
(1 Timothy 6:12
***PERSONAL MESSAGE FOR YOU FROM BILL KELLER: Stand strong for the Lord, if not…who?????
***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Dear Lord, I know that it is your desire that ALL come to repentance, that none be lost. Please give me a passion for souls. Help me to look at each person and never forget that they are created in your image, that one day they will die, and they have an eternal soul. Take away any fear, any hesitancy, to share the hope we have in Jesus with those people you bring into my life. Let me never forget that without Jesus, their soul will be lost for all eternity and do my part to share with them how they can have everlasting life through faith in Jesus who died for their sins. It is in the name of Jesus I pray…AMEN!
***THE DAILY LIVEPRAYER TV NUGGET: About 8 months ago now I told the ! TV
audience that in prayer the previous weekend God spoke to me that everything was going to work out. What that exactly means I can’t tell you. How? I can’t tell you. All I can say is after walking 24/7 these last 30 years, serving Him 25 years of those at Liveprayer.com and 21 ½ years of those at the Liveprayer TV program I trust His voice! As we are 72 days from election day even tho many states start early voting in the next couple of weeks, I want to remind you of what has happened in just the last 58 days! On Thursday June 27th Donald Trump and Joe Biden squared off in the earliest Presidential debate ever on Trump-hating CNN. This was the night over 50 million people tuned in on TV, another 30 million online, and watched what any honest person knew months BEFORE the 2020 election… that Joe Biden was a cognitive mess and totally unable to function mentally! This revelation to many revealed that the corporate media acting as the regime’s scribes, had been coverin! g up for the
entirety of the Biden Presidency that he was mentally unfit for office! It also exposed VP Harris, WH Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, and the rest of the Biden Administration as disgusting liars who also were involved in covering up Biden’s mental deficiencies since he was illegitimately installed as President on January 20th, 2021. After Biden was exposed for being a vegetable during the CNN debate and his poll numbers dropping like a rock, those controlling the Democratic Party, Obama, Pelosi, the Clintons, Chuck Schumer, the donor class, began the process of forcing Biden to drop out of the 2024 Presidential race. On Sunday July 21st, less than a month after the fateful CNN debate, Nancy Pelosi made a call to Biden early that morning. She told Joe that he is finished and he can either do it the easy way, resign, or the hard way, they would take him out via the 25th Amendment and Kamala as VP who would have to initiate such a move was on board! Within an hour Joe an! nounced he
was ending his bid for re-election. Enough drama? No, no, no my friend! Just 6 days later Donald Trump held a rally with tens of thousands in attendance in a huge field in Butler, Pa. He had only been on stage for a few minutes when shots rang out and Trump was struck by an assassins bullet! BY THE GRACE OF ALMIGHTY GOD, THE MOMENT THE BULLET WAS SPEEDING TOWARDS HIS HEAD, TRUMP TURNED TO A GRAPH ON ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION! By turning towards the graph at the moment he did, the bullet missed his head and struck his right ear leaving him bloodied. The Secret Service rushed to the podium and put him down, covering him with their bodies. However, Trump refused to stay down and despite the blood dripping over his face he defiantly stood up in the arms of several agents and put his right fist in the air yelling “fight, fight, fight” as the Secret Service escorted him off the stage and into a waiting SUV to take him to a local hospital. Please understand, it was only by the grac! e of Almighty
God that Trump wasn’t killed in that Butler, Pa field! Just 2 days later was the start of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wi. As the conventional was set to begin, Trump announced that his Vice President in 2024 would be Ohio Senator JD Vance. Donald Trump made a hero’s entrance on night one and was at the convention all 4 nights, the final night culminating in his acceptance speech as the parties nominee. He shared the intimate details of the events that nearly took his life just days earlier to start his acceptance speech. Whatever people think about Trump’s personal faith, he made no hesitation in giving glory to God that he was still alive! Days later the DNC began their convention in Chicago. They named Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as the VP nominee and despite rave reviews by the sycophant corporate press corps, the convention ended with Harris accepting the nomination or the party and spewing one lie after another in the shortest acceptance sp! eech ever! THE
FOLLOWING DAY, while Harris was in bed with a huge hangover and not going back to DC as scheduled, Robert Kennedy Jr. was laying out the endless ways the Democratic Party stifled his campaign every step of the way. It lead RFK Jr. to not just suspend his campaign in the key 10 swing states, but endorse Trump for President! ALL OF THIS HAPPENED OVER THE PAST 58 DAYS!!! What do these final 10 weeks hold? Only God knows, but I pray you ask HIM to be merciful to this wicked nation since what happens on November 5th will determine the course of our nation for GENERATIONS! PRAY!!!!!!!!

“Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.” 1 Timothy 6:12
W! hen is it
time to fight? I don’t know too many people who really enjoy a fight. Fighting is something most children do as they grow up, mostly with their siblings. I vividly remember growing up, the oldest of 3 boys, constantly fighting with my little brothers. I started to play sports at 5, and remember many fights with my friends I grew up with over a backyard game of football that at the movement was more important than the Super Bowl.
Fortunately as I got older, I realized that fighting really doesn’t solve whatever the problem is, and in most cases only makes it worse. Sitting down and working out whatever differences there were was a much better way to handle problems. However, it takes 2 parties who are motivated to work things out for problems to be resolved peacefully. Sadly, there are times in life when that isn’t possible and you are left with no other option but to fight.
That of course begs the question, what is worth fighting for? Our life. Our family. Our ! country.
Our faith. Today, I want to hone in on fighting for our faith. I often get much encouragement and inspiration from reading about Paul’s life. As you read thru the New Testament, especially the Book of Acts, it is incredible how this man fought for the faith.
I am challenged by all Paul personally endured as he fought for the faith. He literally gave his entire life from the moment he met Jesus on the Damascus Road until his work was finished and he was executed for following Jesus Christ. Between those two events, we see one of the greatest examples of fighting for our faith there ever was or will be.
You see my friend, this world that lives in open rebellion to God, His Truth, and Jesus Christ, does not want to be reminded of their sins nor told that when they die they will spend eternity in hell for those sins. Man began to rebel against God his Creator from the very beginning and nothing has changed over these past 6,000 years of human history.
The ve! ry
existence of the children of Israel, God’s chosen people, was often in jeopardy by those heathen peoples groups who lived in open rebellion to the one true God. God sent Jesus as the Savior for mankind, yet he was not only rejected by the world, but by His own people. For the past 2,000 years, the Christian faith has been under attack by those who rejected Christ, from the Roman emperors in the early days of the church to the governments of this world today.
THE CHRISTIAN FAITH HAS ONLY SURVIVED BECAUSE OF THOSE WHO WERE COURAGEOUS ENOUGH TO FIGHT FOR IT!!!
I contend that one of the main reasons the Christian faith is so weak and ineffective in our world today, especially in the United States, is that people have never really learned how to fight for their faith. We were born in a blessed and unique place and time of human history, a nation founded on its belief in the God of the Bible, the Truth of His Word, and faith in Jesus Christ. For the better part of t! he 242
years this nation has existed, it was clearly a Christian nation.
It really wasn’t necessary to fight for the faith as so many of our brothers and sisters around the world over these past 2000 years have had to. However, over these past 40 years, we have become like the children of Israel. We have turned from God to the false gods and idols of the world. We have fallen into gross sin and debauchery. We are now living in open rebellion to God, His Truth, and Jesus Christ.
While this has been happening before our very eyes, Christians who never had to fight for their faith before have sat back and done virtually nothing!!!
Despite growing up in the church and making a commitment to Christ at age 12, I spent the decade of my 20s like Saul, persecuting God’s church. I wasn’t involved in killing Christians or trying to destroy the church, but in living my life for the temporal pleasures of the flesh and this world, in rebellion to the Bible and Christ, I was! doing my
part to contribute to the destruction of the faith.
I thank God every day that 29 years ago this August, I had my encounter with Jesus in the cell of a Federal Prison. It was at that moment I dedicated the rest of my life to the Lord and began to fight for the faith, a fight I will be engaged in until my work here is finished and God calls me home.
realized quickly that the real fight for our faith was taking place in the marketplace. It was clear very quickly why the lost world we live in was winning and we were losing, we had abandoned the marketplace many years ago and retreated behind the four walls of the church to safety. We literally left the marketplace to the scavengers of satan.
We are responsible for abortion on demand! We are responsible for the mainstream acceptance of homosexuality and gross sexual perversion! We are responsible for the decimation of God’s Holy Institution of Marriage and the family! It is easy for us to blame satan, but th! e reality
is we abandoned the marketplace and left it to satan to have his way!!!
Let me share with you something I have learned over these past 25 years of fighting for the faith. If I wake up tomorrow and decide I am simply tired of fighting, I’ve done my part for nearly 2 1/2 decades now let someone else do it, the world will keep spinning. People will be born and people will die. In the end, God’s plan will unfold.
This is about me being faithful to what God has called me to do. You see, I have no other choice. I’ve given my life to Him. God has raised me up in these last days to fight for the faith. When I take my last breath it is not some man I will stand before, but God Himself. He is the one who I will answer to and who will judge me. I will keep fighting for the faith until my work here is over because I have committed my life to serving the Lord.
What keeps me going is the changed lives I see each and every day. People who come to the saving knowledge o! f Jesus
Christ. People who God touches in a miraculous way. Every day I watch the hand of God working in people’s lives all over this world. I also never forget that God never gave up on me. It would have been easy for Him to write me off and let me live a life of rebellion, but He loved me enough to reach out to me and let me know
He had a better plan for my life. He has given me a peace and joy that words can’t describe, and despite the battles, the weariness, He has given me a life of abundance I could have never imagine. Not the temporal abundance of this world, but the true abundance of the eternal things of God. That is why I get up each day, put on the armor, and fight for the faith!
I love you and care about you so much. Liveprayer is about to enter a very real fight for our continued existence. After nearly 19 years, satan has found only one way to try and silence our voice, to literally destroy God’s work here by keeping us from being able to freely minister ! to people
around the world each day through the Daily Devotional and by email and on secular TV. That is through the finances we require each month simply to operate!!!
I have refused to play the games most ministries play to raise money, turning ministries into marketing businesses, but from day one have simply shared our needs and trusted God in faith to provide. It has been the prayers and faithful and generous sacrifice of so many over the years that has enabled us to impact tens of millions of lives worldwide, pray and respond to apx. 40,000 emails for prayer each day, and most important, lead over 1.3 million souls we know of to faith in Jesus!!!
We either do nothing and allow God’s work to be greatly diminished and make it impossible for us to ever grow, or we stand in faith and fight for the resources we require each month. The fact is, our monthly budget is less than what many ministries pay for the fuel in their private planes, or the monthly upkeep on their ! numerous
mansions! Please be praying God to continue to move on the hearts of those we reach each day who HE has blessed to be able to generously give to His work here.
We have become a huge target for satan over the years because there is nobody on the internet communicating with the vast numbers of people we do around the world on a daily basis. Also, because of the firm Biblical stand I take on the issues of the day, we have made an incredible number of enemies who would love to see Liveprayer wiped off the Internet.
I will be praying for you as well. I pray that as you have watched me take my stand for our faith each and every day these past 19 years, to boldly and without fear go into the marketplace and fight for the faith, it will inspire you as well. Everyone who prays, everyone who sacrifices to give, is fighting for the faith with me. GOD HAS HONORED OUR SACRIFICE FOR HIM!!!
Let me encourage you today to rise up and fight for the faith where you live. T! here is a
world around you that is lost, hurting, and souls dying every day and going to hell. There is nothing more precious you will ever fight for since Christ is the only hope for this world and each person. In the end, when your life is over, God will honor you as you hear those words, “Well done thou good and faithful servant!”
In His love and service,
Your friend and co-laborer in His work,
Bill Keller
