LivePrayerDaily Devotional for Monday April 8, 2024
Illegals require support from the “liberal church!” and, Failure is part of life!
DAILY DEVOTIONAL MONDAY APRIL 8, 2024
(1 John 1:9)
***PERSONAL MESSAGE FOR YOU FROM BILL KELLER: Never forget that with Christ, YOU CAN DO ALL THINGS!!!
***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Dear Lord, thank You for giving me another day of life. Let me use this day to bring glory and honor to You! You are the Creator, the giver of life. Never let me take even one day, one hour, for granted. Use me this day to bless those I come in contact with, that You may be glorified! In the name of Jesus I pray. AMEN!!!
***THE DAILY LIVEPRAYER TV NUGGET: The “liberal church” and their love for illegal immigrants, or is it for MONEY? An NGO is a non-government organization that contracts with the government to provide services. Some of those services involve the immigration issue. The “religious left” or the “liberal church” that has grown exponentially in the last decade, has been championing the immigration issue. While I have no doubt about the sincerity of most people who work for these religious NGOs, don't ever forget that the services they provide the government on immigration issues is a HUGE CASH COW!!! These services range from transporting illegal aliens around the country, housing, food, clothing, cell phones, healthcare, education for the children, and job placement even though they legally can't be employed. Again, God will ultimately judge each person and only He knows their heart, but the fact is these religious NGOs are helping to facilitate people breaking the laws of this nation! I am very aware of their argument about helping the poor and all of the Scriptures they cite to justify their work. This nation sends BILLIONS worldwide every year to help poor people all over the world. HELPING THE POOR IS NOT JUSTIFICATION FOR BEING PART OF A SYSTEM THAT IS VIOLATING THE LAWS OF THIS NATION! If they feel so strongly, go minister and offer care for these people in their native country! Once again, these liberal religious groups are making a FORTUNE off of government contracts providing these basic services the government is not equipped to provide. Romans 13:1-2 says, "Obey the government, for God is the One who has put it there. There is no government anywhere that God has not placed in power. So those who refuse to obey the law of the land are refusing to obey God, and punishment will follow." UNLESS CONGRESS CHANGES OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS, THESE RELIGIOUS NGOs ARE COMPLICIT IN AIDING PEOPLE TO VIOLATE OUR NATION'S LAWS! THE SICKEST REALITY IS, OUR VERY OWN GOVERNMENT IS VIOLATING THE VERY LAWS THEY SWORE TO UPHOLD! This my friend is what a nation under the judgement of God looks like!

***APRIL FINANCIAL UPDATE: I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY! We ended of March, covering the first $30,000 of our February shortfall, leaving the final $25,000 plus the $55,000 we require for our March ministry operations. That is a total of $80,000 so we can work on the $55,000 we will require for our April budget! OUR GOD IS ABLE!!!
The Bible teaches us to “give according to our ability to give.” For some that may be $10 or $20. For others it may be $50 or $100. Still others it may be $200, $500, $1,000, $10,000 or more. Pray and the Lord will guide you as you make your sacrifice!

When you fail, don't stop trying. Over the past week or so, I have really hit hard the issue of sin in our life. To some extent, I am affected by the over 40,000 emails that we get each day hear at Liveprayer. I get my daily report of those prayer requests, and actually answer about 60-70 myself each day.
Many of the problems in the lives of those who send in their requests, are as a result of sin in their life, or the life of someone they are close to. I come down hard on the issue of sin because I see first-hand every day how it destroys lives. I also know that with the power of God at work in our life, we can overcome sin, and avoid many of the problems that we experience when we give in to it.
My purpose today is to encourage you in this battle. To tell you NEVER TO GIVE UP. GOD CAN AND WILL LEAD YOU TO VICTORY IF YOU WILL FOLLOW HIM.
When I was about 5 years old my family went to a county fair and there was a pony ride. Even though it was a pony, to a 5 yo, that animal looked HUGE! The pony had only taken about 4-5 steps, and somehow I slid off. My parents wanted me to get back on, but there was NO WAY I was getting back on that pony. To this day, I have never rode a horse because of that experience.
Sadly, many Christians do the same thing in regard to our daily struggle with sin. They fall off, and instead of getting back on board with God, they give up. God is a God of victory, and a believer has already won the greatest battle, our eternal home, so we MUST never give up and keep fighting on even when we fail.
You see my friend, when we are saved we begin a climb on the spiritual ladder. The longer we walk with God, the higher on that ladder we get. But let me be perfectly clear. No matter how high you may climb, there are ALWAYS more rungs above you, and at each level, we have things in our life the Holy Spirit shows us, that we need to battle and overcome.
NOBODY is immune to sin in their life, and EVERYBODY has something in their life that they need to clean up. In our efforts to overcome whatever issue that we may be facing at this particular moment, there are times when we will fall short, when we will fail. My word to you today is to DO NOT ACCEPT FAILURE, GET RIGHT BACK WITH GOD, AND KEEP MOVING FORWARD.
God has given us such a precious promise in 1 John 1:9 that if we will simply confess our sins, He will forgive us, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. All God asks when we fail is that we humble ourselves to Him, confess our sins, accept His forgiveness and cleansing, and MOVE FORWARD. Nobody gets victory standing still. Victory is won by moving forward!
I love you and care about you so much. I know there have been may Devotionals in the last few days that have been difficult to read. I write what I do each day because of my love for you, because I care about you. My job is to share the truth from God's Word, to point out what God says, and then pray that you will open your heart to receive it. We live in a world full of evil and sin.
As Christ told His disciples, we will have trials and tribulations in this life. That will happen regardless. But by living our lives in accordance with God's Word, we can cut down on those trials that we bring on ourselves by rebelling against God. He also told His disciples to "be of good cheer" because HE has overcome this world.
THAT is why I say to you today, when you fail, don't quit. Go to God, confess your failure, accept His forgiveness, and get back on track with God. I will be praying for you today, that whatever it is you are battling in your life, no matter how many times you may fail, that you will never give up. The songwriter said it best, THERE IS VICTORY IN JESUS!
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
