DAILY DEVOTIONAL SATURDAY JULY 19, 2025

(James 4:4)

***PERSONAL MESSAGE FOR YOU FROM BILL KELLER: Pray today for God to bless your family unit as you keep Christ at the center of your marriage and relationship with your children and the rest of your family!

***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: The Murdoch owned Wall Street Journal will soon be the Trump Street Journal! Thursday night the WSJ owned by the Murdoch’s who loathe and hate Donald Trump really crossed a legal line. The Journal published a supposed “bombshell” article about a personal letter Trump had sent to Jeffrey Epstein for his 50th birthday in 2003, MANY YEARS BEFORE THE CRIMES OF EPSTEIN BECOME KNOWN! The insanity of this whole Epstein issue is that over the last 19 years since he was first indicted over trafficking under aged girls in Florida in 2006, there has been millions of documents in the public domain. His Florida conviction opened the floodgates of stories and documents, civil lawsuits from women who were trafficked by Epstein have also created literally hundreds of thousands of documents available to the public during these last 2 decades, finally ending with his indictment and arrest in July of 2019 for a host of crimes dealing with sex trafficking and ending in his suspicious death less than a month later at a Federal jail in NYC. The supposed holy grail has always been his “client list,” tho his personal attorney Alan Dershowitz claims there was never any such list.

During his rise in the world of high finance in the late 90s and early 2000s, Epstein hobnobbed with all of the rich and famous of that day, including Donald Trump. They had a natural relationship since Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion was 5 minutes from Mar-a-Lago where he was a member. There are many photographs of the 2 together during this time. It is well documented that even before Epstein’s indictment in 2006, Trump was mad aware he was getting too close to younger girls at Mar-a-Lago and he literally kicked Epstein out and never had any contact with him after that. Let me add this important point of common sense. As Trump ran for President in 2016, 2020, 2024, every facet of his life since birth was closely examined. In 2016 they literally had to make up a false story that he was in collusion with Russia’s Putin. To try and stop him from regaining the White House in 2024, the Biden DOJ and FBI was weaponized to bring numerous criminal and civil lawsuits against Trump, creating charges that were laughable at the lack of any sort of real criminality. IF THEY HAD EVIDENCE OF A TRUMP RELATIONSHIP WITH EPSTEIN AFTER HIS PERVERSIONS BECAME PUBLIC, DO YOU THINK FOR A SECOND TRUMP’S ENEMIES WOULD NOT HAVE USED SUCH INFORMATION? Also, the Biden Administration ran the DOJ and FBI for 4 years, and again, if they had dirt on Trump do you think they would not have trumpeted such dirt from every mountaintop?

The WSJ story is laughable. In 2003 for Epstein’s 50th birthday, his assistant Ghislaine Maxwell put together a scrapbook from friends. According to the WSJ, Trump sent in a page for the scrapbook consisting of a crudely drawn picture of a nude woman and some sort of made up conversation between him and Epstein. Knowing this was going to be published Thursday, Trump was in contact with the WSJ and in that process asked them to send him a copy of this supposed page he had created for Epstein’s scrapbook. THE WSJ REFUSED! They didn’t even provide a copy in their story. The byline was by a writer who used to work at a publication called Main Justice. It was run by the wife of Fusion GPS owner Glenn Simpson. Fusion GPS was the firm the Democrats used to create the false story that the DNC emails prior to the 2016 election were hacked by Russia, when in fact they were given to Wiki Leaks by a disillusioned young DNC staffer named Seth Rich who was mysteriously murdered during a robbery where nothing we taken from him. Fusion GPS was at the center of the beginning of the whole Russia hoax! This writer was also we a main writer on the whole Stormy Daniels story. Again the question that is begging to be asked, WHERE WAS THIS PAGE FOR EPSTEIN’S SCRAPBOOK THE LAST 22 YEARS?

The Epstein issue is not complicated. He was a pedophile, attracted other powerful men who were pedophiles, and eventually ended up as an asset not just for the CIA, but for Mossad, most likely MI6 (UK), and probably some others as well. Blackmail is the foundational currency used in the intelligence world. They stepped in and protected Epstein in 2006, but by 2019 he obviously was no longer valuable to them and within a month of his arrest he “committed suicide.” This report by the WSJ is going to backfire wildly. Whatever split there was in the MAGA base the last few weeks over getting hold of whatever documents may be out there concerning Epstein seems to have been healed. This story is so outlandish and in the end it is many of the same players who have been out to get Trump for the last 10 years including all of the help the “hate Trump” media can provide. For the record, the only known Epstein files out there were sealed in a NY Federal court after the Maxwell trial by the lead US Attorney, Maureen Comey. Comey is the daughter of disgraced former FBI Director James Comey and was just fired by AG Pam Bondi a few days ago. Comey specifically asked the court to seal those records, so it will be up to a Federal Judge if those documents ever see the light of day. Again, as much as I am sure the Comey family hates Trump, if there was ANYTHING in those files putting Trump in a bad light there is no doubt they would have been leaked to the media!

This WSJ story is a disgusting hoax. President Trump has already announced a massive lawsuit against the WSJ and Rupert Murdoch personally. My gut says at some point the WSJ will become the TRUMP STREET JOURNAL!!!

The Internet is causing people to lose their religion, so says a new US study that was released recently by a researcher and computer scientist. The study indicated that aside from other factors, such as parental affiliation and college attendance contributing to a decrease in religious beliefs, the internet has been attributed as one of the biggest factors. While it may be a logical conclusion someone outside of Christendom could arrive at, it is 100% WRONG!!!

The case is made that because of the Internet, people now have access to more information, information that allows them to "think for themselves." This access to information via the Internet also refutes the existence of God, proves the Bible is little more than a book of myths and fantasies, and following Jesus is a waste of time since there is no such place as heaven or hell!

There is no doubt that the Internet has become a place for those who reject God's existence, who Jesus really was, and the Truth of the Bible, to openly express their beliefs. There are literally thousands and thousands of websites that those who are looking to reinforce their rejection of Christianity can go to in order to find information to support that rejection.

The reason the conclusion of this study is 100% wrong is that the decline of Christianity in this nation is not because of the information available on the Internet, but what I have been sharing in the Daily Devotional these past 26 years. It is the fact the better percentage of the past two generations have never been to church, the breakdown of God's plan for the family which forms the foundation of our society, that are huge contributors to the decline of Christianity. Add to those two factors a nation that operates in open rebellion to God and His Truth found in the Bible, and a culture that openly promotes and glorifies the things God's Word defines as sin.

Lastly, a weak, apathetic, gutless, money-motivated, compromised church that is more focused on building its' kingdom than God's, has to bear a huge portion of the blame for the decline in Christianity in this nation. The church would rather entertain people than train people in the work of the Lord. It would rather build buildings than men and women of God. It equips itself with every modern technological marvel instead of equipping the saints. Raising money has become the prime motivation instead of saving souls!!!

I love you and care about you so much. The truth is, the Internet, while being used to destroy lives and provide people with the lies they need to justify their unbelief, has been an instrument God has used in a POWERFUL way! Just look at Liveprayer! Over the last 26 years, Liveprayer has become by far the world's largest interactive Christian website. We've sent out over 9,400 Daily Devotionals that began going out to a handful of people and are now are received by over 2.5 million people worldwide every single day, impacting tens of millions of lives worldwide since we began!

We have received and responded to over 310 million email prayer requests. We have accumulated a Praise Report archive with over 3.1 million testimonies of God's faithfulness. Most important of all, over 3 million souls from around the world we know of who have come to faith in Jesus Christ through Liveprayer!!!

While many have used the Internet to lead people away from God's Truth found in the Bible and faith in Christ, Liveprayer has proved it can be a mighty instrument in the hands of God to minister to people in their hour of need, bring His Truth into the marketplace, and save souls.

GOD IS USING LIVEPRAYER, THIS PRECIOUS RESOURCE ON THE INTERNET ALONG WITH OUR TV PROGRAM, TO BRING TRUE REVIVAL TO OUR NATION AND BEGIN TO TURN THIS ONCE GREAT LAND BACK TO HIMSELF AND THE TRUTH OF HIS WORD!!!

While it would be nice to blame the Internet for the decline in Christianity in this nation, it simply isn't the case. This is a nation that has forsaken its' relationship with God, and exchanged that relationship for one with the world. The Bible proclaims that a friend of this world is an enemy of God. Our nation has sadly become God's enemy, living in blatant unrepentant sin, and that rebellion against the Almighty is the reason for the decline in Christianity!!!

In His love and service,

Your friend and co-laborer in His work,

Bill Keller
