Evil lurks around every corner as satan is on the prowl, seeking to destroy lives! We learned Tuesday that our FBI thwarted what could have been a disastrous event at the incredible patriotic America 250 UFC event held at the White House Sunday night. Tuesday morning the FBI announced the arrests of 5 individuals with 23 others still at large, all who harbored anti-government sentiments. The plan was to fly drones loaded with explosives over the event, detonating the explosives to cause a panic, and have snipers in position to kill people who were running away to safety.
The key suspect was a 19 year old in Ohio, others were in Nebraska, Missouri, and California. The break came when the mother of the 19 year old contacted the police because of her son purchasing guns, ammo, along with survival type items and refusing to tell her what he was doing. There is no doubt that those involved will be quick to talk to Federal authorities to try and avoid lengthy prison sentences, detailing the role each person played in this plot and just as important where the funding came from.
Also on Tuesday, the DOJ announced the indictment of 15 anti-ICE actors in Minneapolis. These were NOT people exercising their 1st amendment right of free speech or to peacefully protest, but were in a conspiracy to physically interfere with ICE operations. These co-conspirators were training average citizens to criminally interfere with ICE deportation efforts in Minneapolis that led to Renee Good trying to kill an ICE officer by running him down with her car and Alex Pretti carrying a loaded gun as he incited a fight with ICE officers. Both Good and Pretti were killed by Federal agents whose lives were in jeopardy due to their criminal actions.
The Bible tells us that satan prowls like a roaring lion seeking those to devour. THAT MEANS YOU MY FRIEND! NOBODY IS IMMUNE FROM sATAN’S EVIL! That is why the start of 1 Peter 5:8 tells us to, “Be alert and of sober mind.” Pray each morning for the Lord’s protection as you go through your day as evil lurks. However, never forget God’s promise that “greater is He that is in you, than he that is in this world!”

***June Financial Update***
As we are into June, we ended May with a shortfall of $35,000. So far we have covered $10,000 of May’s $35,000 shortfall leaving the final $25,000. I am praying that we can cover the balance of May this week so we can begin working on the $55,000 we require for our June ministry operation.
That is $80,000 to end June with all of our ministry operation current. Traditionally each year we struggle during the summer months of June, July, and August, but am believing God this year we will have an ABUNDANCE! 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
One of the reasons that I love the old hymns of the church is because these incredibly gifted servants of God who wrote the classic hymns of our faith were, not only gifted in the area of music, but they intimately KNEW God, KNEW God's Word, and were theologically 100% right on point in the message that they shared through their music.
One of the great hymns of our faith is "Victory In Jesus". My friend, I am here to tell you today, that no matter what battles that you may be fighting in your life today, no matter what obstacles that might be before you, no matter what struggles you may be dealing with . . . there is VICTORY IN JESUS!!!
You see, the trials and tribulations of this life are only temporary. The victory is not in winning every little skirmish that we encounter on our journey here, but in knowing Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. The VICTORY comes when our eternal destination is secured through our faith in Christ. After that, we can NEVER be defeated no matter what the situation, no matter what the world may say, no matter what happens to us.
This life, this brief journey is fraught with problems, things to discourage us, daily setbacks. But it is our faith in Christ, who already GUARANTEED us that we would be eternally with Him, insures us no matter what the problems that we face today may be, we will live in ultimate victory because those problems will one day be gone and no longer part of our existence!
One of my goals each day as I share the hope and love of Christ with you, in the context of the real issues we all face in our daily journey, is to help you keep the big picture in focus. The small picture is the trials and tribulations in your life today. The big picture is the fact that when this brief journey here on earth is over, we will be eternally with Christ. We will eternally be with God our Creator. The trials and tribulations of this life will no longer exist. So my word for you today is to press forward, and to walk in the victory that you already have.
There is nothing, NO THING that you are facing today that you cannot claim victory over. If it is your finances, claim VICTORY over your finances today! If it is a marriage problem, claim VICTORY over your marriage today! If it is a health issue, claim VICTORY over your healing today. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT PROBLEM THAT YOU ARE FACING TODAY . . . CLAIM 100% VICTORY OVER THAT PROBLEM TODAY!!!
Jesus Christ went to a cross 2000 years ago and WON that victory for you! You are not defeated, you are victorious!!! You are not a loser, you are a winner if your faith is in Jesus Christ! WALK IN YOUR VICTORY TODAY!!!
I love you and care about you so much. Each day we get in over 40,000 prayer requests that my ministry team faithfully answers in a personal way. I personally answer about 100 requests each and every day to keep my finger on the pulse of what people face in their lives each day.
We have a special time of prayer at Liveprayer each day and we pray over every need that you send. I personally spend time each day in prayer for YOUR needs. I want you to understand today, that if you have accepted Jesus into your life by faith, no matter what your circumstances may be, YOU ARE WALKING TODAY IN VICTORY!!!!
"Man does not dictate your victory, your faith in Christ does!" He already went to the cross and died so YOU, this day, could have victory over whatever problems that you are facing in your life.
As you go through your day, keep this word in your heart There is VICTORY IN JESUS! Despite what your circumstances may be this day, WALK IN THAT VICTORY, LIVE THAT VICTORY!!! Christ died so that you could enjoy complete victory in your life, regardless what this world may throw your way.
Repeat these powerful words. There is VICTORY IN JESUS! THERE IS VICTORY IN JESUS! THERE IS VICTORY IN JESUS! Know that I am praying for you today.
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
