***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***

A couple of years ago I shared with you what God had told me one night in prayer. Praying over our nation, over the endless challenges we face at home and abroad, His gentle voice told me that “It was going to be OK, He was going to work it out.” Hearing those words I immediately went to Romans 8:28, “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to his purpose!”

Of course that raised the critical question, DO WE REALLY LOVE GOD???

We can say we love God, but do our actions match our words? As my mother would tell me as a child, words are cheap and that actions speak louder than words! So while God's words comforted me, they also challenged me since I know He never lies. I believe Him when He was He was going to work it out. I also understand we have a role to play in this.

True Biblical faith requires ACTION! Faith is not just lying in bed and expecting God to take care of everything like he is some cosmic concierge who fulfills our orders. Again, I 100% believe God is going to “work it all out,” but I also understand that we have to make our faith real by ACTION!

The one constant message I have shared since Liveprayer began over a quarter century ago, since the TV program began over 23 years ago, is that we must do our part to see a great national revival, to see the people repent and turn back to God and His Truth! If we do our part we know God will do His.

This November we will get an indication from God if our country will be saved for a season, or if we will be given over to the enemies of the United States and God for the next several generations. GOD TOLD ME HE WAS GOING TO WORK IT OUT AND I BELIEVE HIM. IF YOU BELIEVE HIM THAN WE MUST BE BUSY EACH DAY DOING OUR PART TO LEAD THE LOST AND HURTING TO FAITH IN JESUS!!!

***I have issued TWO major warnings in June for people to wake up before God unleashes His wrath and punishment on our land for our sins and wickedness. The first was on the Liveprayer TV program Tuesday June 2nd. The warning starts at the 11:40 mark of the program and goes on for 20 minutes. Here is the link to that program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVuURi7A4Uk&t=722s The second was on the Liveprayaer TV program Wednesday June 24th. The warning starts at the 9:40 mark of the program and goes on for 20 minutes. Here is the link to that program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMs1gyuIMto&t=590s

***August Financial Update***

Thank you to those who were able to help me with a gift during July! Over July we finally covered the balance of our May operations and received the first $15,000 of our June ministry operations. We ended July requiring the final $40,000 from June and the $55,000 for July’s operations. I am praying in the first weeks of August we can cover that $95,000 shortfall so we can begin working on the $55,000 we will require during our anniversary month of August.

Traditionally each year we struggle during the summer months of June, July, and August, so I can really use your help especially in this first week of August with that $105,000 getting seriously past due! OUR GOD IS ABLE!!

*27TH ANNIVERSARY MONTH! As we head into August, our 27th anniversary month, please pray about helping me with a special one-time gift of $27, $1 for every year, or $270, $10 for every year, or $2,700, $100 for every year, or $27,000, $1,000 for every year.

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."

*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 most stupid things we can do in his life is try to negotiate with or talk with Satan. Now I realize many people doubt that there really is a Satan, that he is some mythical character with horns, a red cape, and a pitchfork. Some think that Satan is not real, but what we call the evil side of life, something to blame all of the pain and suffering on.

As in everything, rather than try to sort through what we think Satan is, let's go to the Bible and see who he really is. In Ezekiel chapter 28, we find out that the devil was at one time an angel, with access to the very throne room of God. Isaiah the prophet tells of his fall in chapter 14, after Satan desired the very throne of God and is cast out of Heaven because of pride, taking along 1/3 of the angels who followed him.

A quick side note. Maybe now you can see why pride is so dangerous; it was the original sin in the universe. Satan is intelligent, has a memory, a will, emotions, and great organizational ability.

THE DEVIL HAS READ THE BIBLE!!!

Think about that. If your enemy has read the Bible, how much more do we have to? He is busy. He imitates God, perverts the Word of God, hinders the works of God's servants, blinds men to the Truth, accuses Christians before God, tempts, afflicts, deceives, undermines the sanctity of the home, and tries to disrupt the prayers of God's people. Can you see why he is so dangerous?

However, let me clearly tell you that his powers are limited. He is NOT omnipresent. He cannot be in more than one place at a time. He is NOT omniscient. He does not know everything. He is NOT omnipotent. He is not all powerful. These are only attributes of God himself. Also, and hear this clearly . . . Satan can DO NOTHING apart from God allowing it to happen as in the example of Job.

The good news is that he has already been defeated by Christ. God foretold of Satan's demise even as early as Genesis 3:15. Knowing that prophecy, Satan and his demons must have been rejoicing as Christ took His last breath on the cross. However, their rejoicing turned to terror just 3 days later when Christ rose from the dead. The resurrection of Jesus Christ sealed Satan's doom once and for all.

The Bible tells us that his final destination is the Lake of Fire for eternity. That is why it is so sad to see people reject Christ. They are going to spend eternity in a place that was never created for man, but for Satan and his fallen demons.

My prayer for you today is that you will recognize who your enemy is and stand in the midst of whatever he may try to throw at you. Satan's final resting place will not occur until after the millennium, which is after the 7 year Tribulation, which happens after the Rapture. Until then, we still have to contend with Satan and his hosts. Satan claims authority over this world, which is why he is called the god of this world.

I love you. Satan has the power to blind sinners to the truth, contends for the saints to destroy their lives of service and their testimony. He is a very real foe that we must contend with. That is why the Bible warns us to be self-controlled and alert, to submit to God and resist the devil..to stand firm in the faith. Ephesians 6:11 tells us to "put on the whole armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes."

Ephesians 4:27 says " . . . do not give the devil a foothold."

Those who have put their faith and trust in Jesus Christ are protected by His blood. We do not have to live in fear, but in victory. When Jesus was in the wilderness and Satan came to tempt Him, Jesus didn't try to negotiate with him or debate him. He simply stood on the Word of God. Stand on that word today that says "greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world." The best way to deal with Satan is by taking souls on the way to Hell, and reroute them to Heaven.

I love you and care about you. Live in the victory that Jesus Christ has given us each and every day!!!

In His love and service,

Your friend and brother in Christ,

Bill Keller
