***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***

Fear not, the Lord is your strength and your protector!

*As people are already starting to receive their tax refunds, many receiving much more than expected due to the Trump tax cuts, please be praying about sending a tithe to God’s work here at Liveprayer to me save souls off of that tax refund! Amen!

***Prayer***

Dear Lord, I have strayed from You and want to come home. I have allowed the daily life in this world to lead me astray, to allow me to drift from You, and I miss You dear Lord! Today, I recommit my heart and life to You and to serve You. Use me for Your glory Lord. Make my life count for Your Kingdom. Above all, bring to me Your PEACE and JOY! Give me the joy of my salvation again as I walk close to You each moment of each day. In Jesus name I pray...AMEN!

***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***

Please be praying for churches across the nation, especially Catholic Churches and Crisis Pregnancy Centers. After the overturning of Roe, they have become the huge targets of the insane baby killing crowd who has lost their mind at the mere thought they can't slaughter innocent babies at any place, at any time, and for any reason!

We know the illegitimate Biden Administration weaponized Federal Government against the apx. 80 million people who voted for Donald Trump as well as those who may not have voted for Trump but disagreed with their globalist, Godless policies. They had the audacity to warn prior to the Roe opinion being announced that they would be keeping watch for violence by groups on both sides of the issue.

THE ONLY VIOLENCE THERE HAS BEEN WAS FROM THE BABY KILLING CROWD AND BIDEN’S DOJ DID DOING NOTHING TO PROTECT OUR CHURCHES AND CRISIS PREGNANCY CENTERS! AS A MATTER OF FACT WE KNOW THEY DID JUST THE OPPOSITE AS THEY SPECIFICALLY TARGETED CATHOLICS WHO CELEBRATE THE TRADITIONAL LATIN MASS AND THOSE IN THE PRO-LIFE MOVEMENT!

Can you imagine if there were people vandalizing mosques around the country and Federal agencies specifically targeting Muslims? The outrage would be deafening and the media would be reporting on it 24/7! However, God will watch over and protect those who are serving in His name. So be in prayer for our churches and the great work performed daily to save innocent lives by Crisis Pregnancy Centers throughout our nation!

***May Financial Update***

Praise the Lord! So far we have covered the first $10,000 of our May operations, leaving the final $45,000 by the end of the month! 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

My friend, I have been writing every day for going on 27 year now telling you how bold satan is. We are living in a day and time when sin no longer has any shame. Those who call sin for what God calls it are mocked, laughed at, labeled intolerant, and dismissed as ignorant. The tide has now sufficiently turned that we are living in a time when it is CRIMINAL to speak out against what God says is sin. Already there are incredible hurdles to take the truth of God's Word into the secular marketplace.

People are told they will be fired for sharing their faith at work. We are asked in many social settings to NOT talk about our faith. Getting the most ungodly content that destroys lives out to the masses via secular media and advertising is no problem. However, trying to take the message of Christ and the truth of God's Word to the masses using those same secular vehicles is almost impossible. It can also now be CRIMINAL.

You see my friend, SIN CANNOT STAND IN THE LIGHT OF THE TRUTH! The truth of God's Word exposes sin for the lie that it is. That is why those who choose sin do their best to silence those proclaiming the truth of God's Word. Today's anchor verse tells us that there will come a day when they “exchange the truth for a lie.” That is exactly what we are seeing unfold before our very eyes today and have for years now!!!

Truth: Marriage is between a man and a woman Lie: Marriage is between two people regardless their gender.

Truth: Killing your baby is murder. Lie: It is a woman's right to do what she wants with her body, including having an abortion.

Truth: Homosexuality is a sin. Lie: People are born gay and there is nothing wrong with having sex with someone of the same gender.

Truth: Divorce is a sin. Lie: Nobody really expects you to honor your marriage vows.

Truth: God made man male and female and does not make mistakes. Lie: You can be whatever gender you choose to be.

So what can you do? First, pray. Never underestimate the power of prayer. We need to pray for this nation to turn back to God. We need to pray for God to help us live our lives as true ambassadors of the Lord Jesus Christ. We need to pray for God to give us courage and boldness to proclaim the truth of His Word to those He brings into our life each day. Lastly, we need to pray for God to guide us and direct us where He wants us to be to serve Him. God has a plan and purpose for each one of our lives, and we must yield ourselves daily to Him so that He can work through our lives.

Second, share your faith and the truth of God's Word with others. As the Devotional often encourage you, witnessing is not an option but something God has commanded us to do. God will open the right doors, give you the opportunities each day. Your loudest witness will not be the words you speak, but the way you live your life. PEOPLE NOTICE. The child of God is "on" 24/7. How you live each day before others will always be your most effective witness for Christ.

Lastly, find ways to serve the Lord. God has work for everyone to do. Actually, as Jesus pointed out, there is more work than workers! God has called all of His children to serve Him, each in a unique way. As you seek the Lord He will open doors in your life, guide you where He wants you, and use your life to further the Kingdom of God. EVERY CHILD OF GOD HAS BEEN CALLED INTO HIS SERVICE! Serving God is how we fulfill our purpose in this life.

I love you and care about you so much. It is time for every child of God to do their part. We can't sit back and expect a politician to solve the spiritual problems of this nation. We can't expect pastors and Christian leaders to do all the work. It is the responsibility of each and every child of God to do their part in serving the Kingdom. Somewhere church became another form of entertainment, losing its purpose which is to be a community of believers growing in their faith and being equipped to go out into the world we live serving our Lord.

I will be praying for you today to hear this clear challenge from God. Christianity was never intended to be a spectator sport! Take some time in the next 24 hours and get alone with God and start seriously seeking Him about what He wants you do to serve Him. It is time for every child of God to step up to the plate. It is time to do your part!!!

In His love and service,

Your friend and brother in Christ,

Bill Keller
