Daily Devotional for Wednesday April 15, 2015
The Real Problems of this Nation are not Political, they are Spiritual
(Isaiah 58:1)
***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Dear Lord, please help me to take a few minutes today and enjoy the day. Even in the hustle and bustle of daily life, let me stop for a moment to recognize your magnificent creation, to be thankful for the blessings you bestow upon me, and be grateful for another day of this gift called life. Let me not take this day for granted, but treat it as the gift from YOU it is. In the name of Jesus...AMEN!!!
"Shout it aloud, do not hold back. Raise your voice like a trumpet. Declare to my people their rebellion and to the house of Jacob their sins." Isaiah 58:1
The REAL problems of this nation are not political, they are spiritual!. Did you hear Hillary Clinton is trying to be our next President? So will be dozens on the Republican side. Now that the noise and distraction of the 2016 Presidential election is in full swing, I must warn you to not get distracted since the REAL problems in this nation are spiritual, not political. Elections come and go, politicians come and go, and by the very nature of the corrupt institution of politics, nothing ever really changes.
Case in point, $6 BILLION will be spent over the next 20 months to elect our next President. Whoever gets elected, it won't matter since that person will have sold their soul 1000x over and ultimately worship the god of politics. In this current system, regardless the policy, Presidents have little ability to make any real change. My friend, the real changes necessary have nothing to do with political policies but have to be spiritual, something no politician, even the President, is qualified or has any motivation to change!
Saddest to me will be watching so many supposed "Christian leaders" compromising their faith for temporal politics, and in the end not only will their efforts be in vain, but in the process they will sell out their faith as they always do. They always end up with ZERO for their compromise. At least Judas got 30 pieces of silver. Why anyone would trust these supposed spiritual leaders who always sell out to the world of politics (Even if it means supporting a 5th generation high priest of a satan worshipping cult!) in the future is beyond me, since this is the very same political compromise the priests in the OT engaged in that ultimately led to God's judgment on the nation of Israel.
IT WAS THE FAILURE OF GOD'S MEN TO LEAD THE PEOPLE SPIRITUALLY THAT LED TO THE SPRITUAL DOWNFALL OF ISRAEL!!! IT IS THAT SAME DEARTH OF SPIRITUAL LEADERSHIP THAT HAS LED THIS NATION INTO THE SPRITUAL ABYSS! MEN OF GOD, LIKE THE OT PRIESTS, MORE WORRIED ABOUT THE TEMPORAL THINGS OF THIS WORLD SUCH AS MONEY AND POWER THAN THE ETERNAL SOULS OF MEN. MEN OF GOD, LIKE THE OT PRIESTS, MORE WORRIED ABOUT BUILDING THEIR KINGDOM THAN THE KINGDOM OF GOD!!!
As long as I have breath I refuse to compromise the eternal Truth of God for a temporal institution like politics. I will continue to do my best 24/7/365 to LEAD the people in ways of righteousness and God's Truth. Waffling between this world and God's Truth may help you raise MILLIONS annually, but it is also leading tens of millions of souls to hell needlessly because they never hear the Truth about their sin and the One who die for their sins who they can have a personal relationship with!!!
People are looking for a leader. That is why the anti-Christ will amass such power, since one of his attributes is that he will be a true leader. The political greatness of a Washington, of a Lincoln, of a Reagan, was first and foremost their LEADERSHIP! They had a vision, they were able to articulate that vision, and the people followed. The greatness of the heroes of our faith since the OT has been their LEADERSHIP! They had a vision from God, were able to articulate that vision, and the people followed them in ways of righteousness!
You can quote me on this one. "It takes vision to lead, it takes guts to lead, and it takes men with a higher purpose than themselves to lead!!!" Bill Keller, Founder of Liveprayer
I love and care about you so much. Never forget my friend, DON'T GET DISTRACTED BY THE POLITICAL STORMS THAT WILL BE FRONT AND CENTER OVER THESE NEXT 20 MONTHS! The problems in this nation are not political, they are spiritual! The only true answer and hope for this nation is turning back to God and His Truth. Along with our daily work in the lives of millions worldwide via our internet and TV platforms, our larger work is to be God's igniter for a true national revival. It is to save souls as we lead this nation back to God and His Truth!
For 16 years now, Liveprayer HAS LED THE PEOPLE! We HAVE NOT compromised the Truth of God's Word even when it cost us tens of thousands in donations. We have NOT been afraid to take on the wolves of satan on their own turf to battle for souls. We have been shunned by the Christian "establishment" because we won't play their political games or be used by them to help them make money, much like the OT prophets were shunned by the religious "establishment" of their day.
I don't have time for the games they play, since we have precious hours left. God's wrath is imminent. We have already seen His judgment being in earnest and increase with each month. This is NOT a game. Sadly, most people ignored the warnings of the prophets, choosing instead to listen to the ear-tickling of the priests. The prophets had nothing to gain other than fulfilling their calling to God, while the priests were so lost in the temporal they couldn't see what was about to happen.
I am simply asking today for your prayers, and that you take your stand with me. Together, we CAN LEAD THE PEOPLE! Together, we can see this nation turn back to God and His Truth! We have no time left, and unless we wake the people up and deal with the REAL PROBLEMS THAT ARE SPIRITUAL, this nation will be lost and gone forever!
***GOD IS GREAT!!! The last piece of our plan to lead this nation back to God and His Truth has been having the Liveprayer TV program that we pioneered from 2003-2008 on major secular stations and networks back on the air. After having the Liveprayer TV program back on the air "live" every Monday-Friday from Mid-2am EDT for 2 years this May, over 1 year this past February in the Chicagoland market of 10 million people, we have finalized plans for the program to be in national syndication this coming January!!! This monthly syndication deal will pay the ministry enough each month to cover ALL of our monthly operations costs, and as the program grows, would give us the financial resources to secure a large, visible platform in the marketplace to proclaim the Truth of God's Word that other than through our efforts over the years, has been either void of or filled with weak and watered-down representations of His Truth!
TO INSURE WE COVER OUR FINANCIAL OPERATIONS FOR THE BALANCE OF THE YEAR, I AM SEEKING 300 PEOPLE TO MAKE A 9 MONTH COMMITMENT STARTING THIS MONTH OF APRIL. I AM ASKING 265 PEOPLE TO COMMIT TO HELP LIVEPRAYER WITH A MONTHLY GIFT OF $100 THIS MONTH THROUGH DECEMBER, 30 PEOPLE TO COMMIT TO HELP LIVEPRAYER WITH A MONTHLY GIFT OF $,1000 THIS MONTH THROUGH DECEMBER, AND 5 PEOPLE WHO WILL COMMIT TO HELP LIVEPRAYER WITH A MONTHLY GIFT OF $2,000 THIS MONTH THROUGH DECEMBER.
