(John 10:10)THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DEVOTIONALS I HAVE EVER WIRTTEN ON OUR
CULTURE. IT IS A MESSAGE THAT YOU HAVE TO GET TO EVERY PERSON YOU KNOW. POST
IT EVERYWHERE YOU POSSIBLY CAN ON THE INTERNET. IT IS A WAKE UP CALL TO A
NATION THAT HAS EMBRACED A CULTURE OF DEATH!!!
The culture of death hanging over this nation like a black cloud! God
created man never to die. Physical and spiritual death were never part of
God's plan for man. However, it was man, exercising his God-given free will
that introduced both forms of death into the human experience. Death is from
the pits of hell itself, while life is from God. Satan comes to KILL, steal,
and destroy and is synonymous with death. It is through faith in Jesus
Christ that man is promised everlasting life and conquers death. Christ came
to give life and life abundantly and He is synonymous with life.
Sadly, this has become a nation that has embraced, even glorifies death.
Because we have separated ourselves so far from God, we no longer value
life. Life is no longer viewed as special or treated as sacred. Many people
ask me why I talk about abortion so often and the fact we slaughter over
4,000 innocent babies in this nation every 24 hours. It is because people
have become numb and desensitized to death! I'll prove it to you. Let me ask
you a very legitimate question. Answer honestly. Did you think at all today
about the FACT that in the past 24 hours, apx 4,000 innocent babies were
slaughtered in this nation? Did you?
We have simply come to live with the fact that we practice legalized
infanticide and we don't even give it a second thought. People die in
floods, fires, car wrecks hurricanes, tornadoes and we mourn. 3,000 innocent
lives were lost on 9/11 and we consider that the greatest act of terror on
our soil. Yet we don't even give a second thought to the fact that every 24
hours, another 4,000 innocent lives are destroyed! What kind of sick and
perverted nation allows such a thing to happen?
We read in the Bible how Herod, after the birth of Jesus, sent his men to
kill every baby under the age of two years. They literally ripped babies out
of the arms of the mothers and killed them on the spot. Even though I have
read that passage of Scripture 1,000 times, each time I read it in horror.
What kind of monster would do such a thing to innocent babies? Yet, we are
no better than Herod. Our new President, the figurehead of our nation, is
another "Herod." He is the embodiment of this culture of death as he
supports and advocates the killing of innocent babies. He will insure during
his time in office that the practice of infanticide continues in this nation
without any restrictions.
Children are born into this culture of death and brainwashed from birth that
life has no meaning. Through the media that bombards them with images of
violence and death, to the games they play, they are desensitized to death
from birth. Just 20 minutes from the Liveprayer offices, a 9-year-old boy
hung himself in his closet with a couple of belts after dinner. In Arizona,
an 8-year-old shot and killed his father and his father's friend. This was
not an accidental shooting, but a deliberate act of murder. Teen and child
suicide, teens involved in premeditated murder, are both on the rise in this
nation.
Several months ago in Florida, a 19-year-old was logged onto a video chat
site and with thousands of people online, cheering him on, he overdosed and
died, LIVE ON THE INTERNET! We are aghast and disturbed by this. But don't
worry, there will be copycats killing themselves live on the Internet in the
coming months, and pretty soon it won't be a big deal. We'll simply accept
that people are committing suicide live on the Internet just like we accept
and are used to people jumping off of high profile bridges to their death.
Very troubling to me is the latest "hot book series" for children, that has
been quickly been turned into a movie that made over $70 MILLION its first
weekend. Stephenie Meyer makes JK Rowling look like a choir director. She is
a member of the Mormon cult and a true tool satan is using in these last
days to bring this culture of death to children. She is the author of the
4-book "Twilight" series. These are books that romanticize the world of
vampires, which is a dark world of eternal death. The danger in these books,
and now the movie, is that they are geared to children, teens and young
adults and glamorize the perverted world of vampires, which is nothing more
than a world of death.
I love you and care about you so much. Please wake up!!! We not only live
in, but we accept this culture of death that hangs over our nation. Jesus
came to deliver us from death. Jesus won the victory over death. We do not
have to accept this black cloud of death that hangs over our land. It is
time Christians took our stand and loudly, boldly, visibly proclaimed LIFE!
Children are growing up without any understanding of where life came from
and how precious it is. So it is no wonder why they have embraced death to
the extent they have.
In the past, I shared with you 6 things you can start doing immediately to
take your stand for Christ in these last days. I have answered the call to
lead this charge to bring our nation back to God and Biblical values. We
have the infrastructure and resources to do it through Liveprayer. I am
asking you to say NO to this culture of death we are living in and say YES
to life!!! Don't underestimate how critical 15 minutes a day can be as you
help me by following one, two, or all 6 of these action steps.
People are saved daily, lives are impacted daily, because someone made the
effort to share Liveprayer with that person. YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND
TAKE A REAL STAND FOR CHRIST EACH DAY!
1. Distribute Liveprayer Daily Devotional - I need people to take each day's
Daily Devotional and forward it to everyone that you know. This is a great
way to help spread God's Word on the Internet. Also, post it to various
blogs and message boards that you frequent.
2. Liveprayer TVRadio Program - Tell everyone you can about the TV program.
The program is on "live" every Monday thru Friday from 10-11pm EST (9-10
CST, 8-9 MST, 7-8 PST), exclusively on the Liveprayer.com website in
virtually HD quality, and radio in Tampa, Orlando, and Melbourne Florida.
Each night I deal with the hot issues of the day and in people's lives, and
viewers can call in for prayer or to ask questions. It is a unique program
like nothing else on TV.
3. Jonah Project - Tell everyone that you know to check out the Jonah
Project. This is the vehicle God has given us to bring together true
followers of Jesus Christ in these last days in one group that can make an
incredible impact on the spiritual course of this nation and in millions of
people's lives. There is a vision video on the Jonah Project homepage that
clearly lays out how God can use this group in these last days. You can
access the Jonah Project website by going to Liveprayer.com and clicking on
the Jonah Project link
4. Liveprayer Church - We are already getting incredible feedback from
people who have been coming to the services each week at the new Liveprayer
Church. This is a great resource to share with people, especially those who
currently don't have a church home or won't go to a regular church for
whatever reason. Get the word out about this new online church to everyone
that you know.
5. Video Daily Devotional on Cell Phones - Next Monday is the launch of this
exciting, cutting-edge use of modern technology to minister to people. As of
next Monday, get everyone that you know to go to the Liveprayer.com homepage
and get signed up for this incredible FREE daily ministry to people via
their cell phones.
6. Fundraising - Unlike other ministries, Liveprayer has ZERO paid
fundraisers or development people. Again, I just never went the route all
major ministries go of having a staff of people who do nothing but contact
donors and go out to raise funds. All we do each day, all that we provide is
made available for FREE to take God's Word into the marketplace and impact
lives for Christ. Obviously it takes money to operate. I've simply shared
our needs and walked by faith that God would provide each month. Raising
money is a special gift. I am praying that those who have that special gift
and want to serve God will help me in this area.
The fact is, there are lots of people who God has blessed and are giving to
many different causes. Liveprayer is a highly visible ministry, a track
record of nearly 10 years, and the fruit of literality millions of changed
lives as a testimony that this is fertile soil for people to give into.
Obama had literally thousands of regular people collecting money for his
campaign. Normal people with no special skills or gifts in raising money.
They simple believed in his work and got people to give towards it.
I KNOW THERE ARE PEOPLE IN THE LIVEPRAYER FAMILY WHO BELIEVE IN GOD'S WORK
HERE WHO COULD SUCCESSFULLY GET PEOPLE YOU KNOW TO GIVE TO HELP US DO ALL
THAT WE DO EACH DAY FOR SO MANY AROUND THE WORLD.
Are you ready to take your stand for Christ??? Liveprayer is a life-changing
vehicle God has been using for nearly 10 years now to impact literally tens
of millions of lives all over the world. We have tapped into the great
technology of our day to reach the world and individual lives with the Truth
of God's Word and the hope and love of Jesus Christ. I can't do this alone.
Now more than ever it is critical for each person who knows the Lord to step
up and allow Him to use your life. I have given you 6 action steps. You can
choose one, two, or all six depending on how the Lord is leading you.
I refuse to accept this culture of death we live in. I am asking you to take
your stand for Christ and help me change this nation into a culture of LIFE,
abundant now and everlasting through faith in Jesus Christ!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
