***Prayer***
Dear Lord, help me to always be prepared to serve You in any way that I can. My life belongs to You. I am ready, willing, and able to answer Your call as I go through my life each day. Use me for Your glory. I am Yours! In the name of Jesus I pray...AMEN!
***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
The worldwide battle between the globalists and the nationalists and why it is important to Christians! When a conversation comes up about a globalist point of view or a nationalist point of view, most people assume it is about politics. While it is true this is usually a political issue, it is also a very important issue for Christians. As nations around the world become more “global,” they also become less God-fearing, less Christian, and more atheistic. As the battle goes on in our country and others, it is not just a battle of political ideologies but is also a battle for the Christian faith. The freedoms we have enjoyed for the past 243 years to worship and proclaim our faith freely is ultimately at stake!!!

***April Financial Update***

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
One of the things that you can count on as you live your life are the unexpected surprises that will come your way from time to time. We all do our best to try and control what is happening in our life, but there will always be things happening to us we simply have no control over. It is at those times in life that our faith must become real and sustain us no matter what the challenge may be.
Nobody who is reading these words today is immune from the unexpected surprises of life. Waking up and finding your pet has run away, going out to play and getting injured, having a doctor tell you that you have a disease, coming home and finding your spouse has left, getting a call from the bank that a deposit bounced causing your checking account to be overdrawn, getting hurt by a close friend, being told your job has been eliminated, getting a phone call in the middle of the night that one of your parents has died, finding out your child is on drugs, getting rear-ended by a careless driver, being told your credit card was declined, and the list could go on and on of unexpected surprises great and small.
You see my friend, no matter how much control we THINK we have over our life, that is a myth because you cannot control how other people think or act. People make mistakes that can affect your life. People choose to live in rebellion to God and their rebellion can affect your life. The reason we can never have total control over our life is because we can never totally control the people that are part of our life each day. People will always fail us, people will always let us down, whether it is intentional or not.
That is why our faith is not in a man, but in THE man--Jesus! He is the only one who will never fail us, never let us down. He has promised to never leave us nor forsake us. It is during those difficult times in life, especially when we are faced with the unexpected, that we have to find our strength and hope in Him. You see, through Jesus, no matter what life may throw at us we can find the strength and hope each day to battle through the problems life may bring our way.
THERE IS NO BATTLE YOU ARE FIGHTING TODAY THAT YOU CAN'T WIN WITH JESUS!!!
The key to victory is to not let the surprises of life distract you, cause you to lose focus from what God has called you to do with your life. Let me repeat this because this is a big one. Please, read these words over and over. THE KEY TO VICTORY IS TO NOT LET THE SURPRISES OF LIFE DISTRACT YOU, CAUSE YOU TO LOSE FOCUS FROM WHAT GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO DO WITH YOUR LIFE!
Here is another one for you. Worrying about the things you have no control over will cause you to not take care of the things you do have control over. One more time. Worrying about the things you have no control over, will cause you to not take care of the things you do have control over.
I love you and care about you so much. On this journey called life we are always going to face unexpected surprises, things that come out of nowhere and all of a sudden become major issues in our life. Nobody who lives is free from the unexpected problems of life. The key is how we respond to those unexpected problems. We can either let them weigh us down like an anchor at the bottom of the sea, or we can exercise our faith in Christ and be victorious over whatever unexpected problems may come our way.
I will be praying for you today. I know that many of you are dealing with circumstances in your life that popped up out of nowhere. I am praying that you will take your burden to the Lord and allow Him to help you find peace and joy today despite your circumstances. That peace and joy comes from knowing God is in control and that there is victory in Jesus.
Don't let the distractions of life keep you from being faithful in doing what God has called you to do with your life. Give those things out of your control to the Lord, and focus on those things that are in your control. That is how you deal with whatever life throws at you.
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
