(Philippians 4:11-13)
***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***
In these last days, now is the time for the followers of Jesus to boldly lead the lost and hurting masses to faith in the Lord!
***Daily Personal Prayer For You***
Dear Lord! Today I come to You, asking You to bless the dear people who we faithfully minister to each day. I ask for Your protection, that You meet their every need, and bless them and their families richly. As I have each morning for 33 years now, 26+ years at Liveprayer, I commit YOUR work to You this day. May Your Truth in the marketplace, lives be impacted, and souls saved….FOR YOUR GLORY! My life is in Your hands and I simply ask that You use me so You are glorified!!! In the name of Jesus my Lord I pray. AMEN!!!
***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
Another pawn killed not by ICE, but by the evil anarchists who are happy to sacrifice people to advance their anti-American agenda. I am not going to go into all of the details of the latest killing of a criminal obstructionist. Cutting through the noise regarding this latest incident, there are two simple truths to take away.
Truth one is DO NOT criminally obstruct Federal officials, especially if you are carrying a loaded 9mm gun with 2 extra magazines. Truth two is if you are confronted by Federal officials for criminally obstructing their work obey any commands they give you DO NOT fight with them! Again, OBEY THEIR COMMANDS!
On the Monday night Liveprayer TV program I will deal in depth with this latest death in Minneapolis and all of the details regarding the critical issues facing our nation and world today from a Biblical worldview.

***January Financial Update***
Praise the Lord! Thanks to the prayers, a special gift from one of our friends, and generous sacrifices by many others in the Liveprayer family, we have covered the balance of our 2025 ministry budget. HALLELUJAH!!! That means we can now begin to work on the $55,000 we require for our January ministry operations so we can end January with all of our ministry operations current! 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. God will bless your gift no matter the amount.
Also, don't forget a gift of $1,800 covers one day of ministry at Liveprayer. I received this email recently, “Pastor Bill, My wife and I have just sold our last rental and God told us to tithe $1,800.00 to pay for a day of your ministry. Not looking for accolades, just that you know when you receive the check. Rest assured that we will still be making our regular weekly tithes."
To give a gift to Liveprayer you can use your major credit card at: http://liveprayer.com/donate.cfm or you can mail your gift to: Liveprayer, 6662 46th Ave. North, St. Petersburg, FL 33709. All gifts to Liveprayer are 100% tax deductible!
Stocks! A great way to help Liveprayer is by donating stock. The transfer can be made in a way you get the full credit for your donation without having to pay any of the taxes you normally would on gains your stocks may have enjoyed. Contact me for information about this incredible way to help God's work here at Liveprayer: bkeller@liveprayer.com
By the way I have been seeking the Lord since the start of this year for God to lead someone He has blessed richly to make a legacy gift of $15,000,000 to Liveprayer. That would insure that when God decides to call me home Liveprayer will continue to impact lives and lead lost souls to faith in Jesus for a minimum of 20 years. Please stand in agreement with me for the Lord to raise up that person!
Live on after you are in Heaven!!! By remembering God's work here at Liveprayer in your will/estate planning, you can still help me share His Truth with the masses, be here for people in their time of greatest need, and help lead the lost to faith in Jesus even after God has called you home!!! God has led many of our friends in the Liveprayer family to remember His work here in their will. Please pray about this opportunity to continue and partner with me in the Lord's work at Liveprayer, even after you are enjoying your rewards and the eternal peace of Heaven! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me at: bkeller@liveprayer.com
"I am not saying this because I am in need, for I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances.” Philippians 4:11
Getting out of the rut! It is Monday, the start of a new week and for those up north winter is in all of its’ glory. We are praying for all of those affected by the winter storms affecting much of the country for God’s protection and to be safe. The holidays are behind us, kids are back in school, and for many families it is a busy time of the year as they get back into their normal “routine.”
As the weeks and months of the new year begin to unwind, one of the reasons we tend to struggle and fight what seems like a losing effort at times is that we get into a rut. Our routine rarely changes. We get up almost every day and either go to work or school. As creatures of habit, we go to the same stores and the same places to play; we become very comfortable in our lives.
When problems come like they do in everyone's life, we tend to handle them the same way. We become very good at "living" each day!!!
On a spiritual level we become very good at avoiding to have to test our faith, putting our faith on the line. We get comfortable in our church, in the areas we serve God. Most people live very defensive lives. To use a football analogy, we play a prevent defense most of the time. That is what teams do late in the game when they have a big lead. They play very cautiously, play it safe and try not to lose the game.
I want to challenge you today on many fronts. First in your day-to-day life. Try buying your groceries at a different supermarket this weekend. Try going to some stores that you have never shopped at before. Go play at a different park this weekend.
For you who are married, take your husband or wife and go spend an afternoon doing something you have never done before. Those who are single, get one of your friends and do something this weekend you have never done before.
Next week when you go to work, take a different route to work. Don't go to the same coffee shop in the morning. At school, get involved in some activities you normally don't participate in. This Sunday, go to your church in the morning, and in the evening go to a different church. If you normally serve God in one area, for the next few weeks try to find a new avenue of service.
Why am I saying this? First of all, I am not trying to meddle in your life. We ALL need change from time to time. We all need to see things from a new perspective. We all need to experience new things. God has blessed us with tremendous abilities. We have an incredible capacity to do so much. Yet most of the time, we get into such a comfort zone we tap into a very small percentage of what we are capable of accomplishing!
Another reason for this is that it gives you confidence in different situations. Life will always throw us curve balls along the way and hit us with things we aren't ready for. The more we experience, the more we are exposed to, the better we are equipped to handle life's problems. We are more capable of looking at all the alternatives, instead of looking at a problem only one way.
Lastly though, change stimulates our senses, energizes us, and gives us a special spark for life we often lose when we are in the same old routines over and over, month after month, year after year!
Let me share with you that this encouragement is relevant to EVERYONE! Nobody is immune to life’s problems. I know some of you are facing financial challenges, others health problems, others issue with a relationship, and still others a plethora of difficulties life throws our way. So matter what your circumstances may be currently, you can still change up your daily routines and breath some freshness into your life!
I love you, and I care about you so very much. I do pray for you each day. I realize that there is much you go through each day. Many things are happening in your life. Be encouraged today that the Lord loves you and wants the best for your life. He has given you so much, yet we often only partake of a fraction of what God has blessed us with.
Be aware this coming week and in the weeks ahead that you don't have to turn your life upside down, but that you can do some things differently. You can do new things. You can enjoy new experiences.
One of the byproducts of change is meeting new people, seeing God opening different doors in your life. From time to time we need to reach out, stretch ourselves, and see what else God may be saying to us that we aren’t hearing. That is often hard when we are in the same old routine each and every day.
Life is made up of seasons. Each season of our life is different. Different people, different things that we occupy our time with, different interests. In the midst of our seasons though, we need to be careful not to get so regimented, in such a rut that we lose that spark for life.
More importantly, we lose that spark in our daily relationship with the Lord. We get “comfortable.” Pray at different times about some different things. Read the Word in parts of the Bible you maybe aren’t that enthusiastic about. Try meeting some new Christian friends, serving the Lord in ways you never had before.
The Christian life shouldn’t be one of defense, but one of offense. Seek out new experiences in your Christian life. You will be shocked at how many NEW WAYS the Lord can and will bless you.
MOST OF ALL, HAVE FUN!!! THIS LIFE IS SO SHORT, OVER SO QUICK. THE BIBLE TELLS US TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED TO ANY OF US. MAKE THE MOST OF EACH DAY SINCE IT IS A DAY UNIQUE UNTO ITSELF, A DAY LIKE YOU NEVER HAD BEFORE AND A DAY YOU WILL NEVER HAVE AGAIN!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and co-laborer in His work,
Bill Keller
