LivePrayerDaily Devotional for Monday October 29, 2018
Each day I pray that the Lord will pour through me the exact words He has for YOU on that day!!!
(Ephesians 6:19,20)
***OCTOBER FINANCIAL UPDATE: GOD ALWAYS HAS A RAM IN THE BUSH!!! Thanks so much for the prayers, the outpouring of love, and the many sacrifices over a very challenging past few weeks. God sent that “ram”...and many others to keep HIS work here at Liveprayer moving forward. Even after so many years of witnessing His provision, each time it is incredibly humbling beyond words! TO GOD BE THE GLORY...HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!!!
With just 3 days left in October, we are down to the final $26,000 to end October with all of our operations current. Please pray about what the Lord is calling you to give over these final days, whether it is $10, $20, $50, $100, or more in order to cover that final $26,000 of October’s ministry operations.
*SPECIAL YEAR-END GIFT!!! With the end of the year just 63 days away, PLEASE be praying about a special year-end gift to Liveprayer. Over these final 63 days of 2018 we require the final $26,000 of our October ministries budget and the $100,000 we require for November and December.
That is $126,000 to end this year with all of our ministry operations current! Please be in prayer what God is calling you to do to insure we can begin 2019 with all of our 2018 ministry operations paid in full, and don’t forget that your gift to Liveprayer is 100% tax deductible!!!

***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Dear Lord, please help me to increase my faith to trust you in the challenges I face in my life. Lord, I believe that all things are possible with you, and today I have circumstances in my life no man can help me with. I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY LORD! YOU AND YOU ALONE ARE MY HOPE AND ANSWER! Help my unbelief. Help me to have faith! In the name of Jesus I pray...AMEN!
One of my personal prayers each day is that the Lord will pour through me the exact words He has for His people on that day. I never take for granted the incredible responsibility He has entrusted me with as I share with you each day through the Daily Devotional. I want you to know that I do my very best each day to communicate in a very straightforward and clear manner the things God wants YOU to hear each day.
Also, never think for a second it is a coincidence what you read each Daily Devotional, ESPECIALLY DAYS WHEN YOU THINK THE WORLDS DON’T APPLY TO YOU! They may not today, but may be VERY relevant tomorrow. God loves you, and one way He shows you that love is by trying to guide you along this journey we call life. He does that in many ways, and one of those ways is the Daily Devotional you receive each morning from Liveprayer.com
Many have asked why I write these each day. Why not do it once a week, or once a month. The reason is this. Our relationship with Christ is a DAILY relationship. Not once a week, or once a month. The problem is too many treat their relationship with Christ that way, and thus end up in unfortunate situations. We must never forget that there is a very real enemy who would love to make us ineffective servants of our God.
The easiest way to make us ineffective is to get us so tangled up in sin, in the things of this world, that we lose focus on our true purpose which is to serve and glorify Him with our lives! That daily walk, that daily communication, that daily connection with our Lord is what helps us to stay spiritually strong, focused, and keep our priorities straight.
You will never know how much I love you, and care about you. The greatest gift I receive each day is your love, friendship, and prayers. While the Lord has called me to be here to encourage you and challenge you in your walk, you have also been an encouragement and blessing to me in my relationship with Christ as well. The Bible tells us that we are to bear each other’s burdens. Just as I am here each day to share your burdens, you have been there to share mine.
I took an incredible step of faith 230 months ago. After much prayer, I took all of my personal funds and invested them in the launch of this new Internet ministry the Lord was calling me to establish by faith. These last 230 months have been an incredible walk of faith for me personally, as I put action into the words I share with you so often.
Saying "have faith and trust God" is one thing. Doing it is entirely different!!! TRUE BIBLICAL FAITH REQUIRES ACTION!!!
So many of you have caught this incredible, constant, uncompromised, and never wavering vision of Liveprayer to reach out to the hurting masses around the world, bring HIS Truth into a marketplace virtually void of Biblical Truth, and lead lost souls to faith in Jesus Christ! You have prayed, you have given me encouragement, and you have sacrificially given of your treasure to make all we do each day at Liveprayer possible for so many people worldwide.
So many depend on us being here each day with the Truth of God’s Word not just for their daily spiritual food, but for someone to pray with them and for them in that time of need all experience during this brief journey through life.
I can never tell you what your support has meant to me, especially on those difficult days when I wonder if God was taking a nap. That note of encouragement from you, that gift I know came right from your heart, was God letting me know to keep pressing forward in faith as we bring His hope to this lost, hurting, dark world.
As we start new month in a few days with so many incredible opportunities to touch lives worldwide for Christ, now more than ever I need you to stand with me. Keeping up with our monthly ministry operational budget of $50,000 is critical. It is your gifts each month that make that possible. Please sit down today, and give the best gift you possibly can to help us to insure we close out October with all of our basic daily operations current as we head into the last two months of the year and the Christmas season.

Thank you for standing with me and know that I am always here for you in your time of need. I pray for you and your family daily. Count on the fact that each day as you open the Daily Devotional, it is something that has been born of much prayer and a Word God is saying to you that day. I will continue to share with you each day the love, hope, and victory that we have in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!!! AMEN!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend, brother, and co-laborer in Christ,
Bill Keller
