***Liveprayer Christmas Card 2024: https://liveprayer.com/mc24/

***CHRISTMAS FOR SINGLE MOTHERS! After much prayer and despite still needing $130,000 to end this year with all of our financial needs current, I have taken a huge step of faith and am announcing that as we have done most years since Liveprayer began over 25 years ago, we will be helping out single mothers this Christmas. We will be helping 30 single mothers with a gift of $200 so they can insure their children have something under the tree and a nice Christmas meal. As in past years, all I ask is that these single mothers we help go to church with their children on Christmas! I never ask people to do something I don’t do myself, and am giving into my personal need by taking care of 10 of the 30. If God is leading you to help me take care of any of the other 20, just make sure you mark on your $200 credit card or check gift that it is for the Single Mothers Christmas. What I need is for those who want to be considered, send me a short email with your name, address, and phone number. I need to know how many children you have and their ages. Lastly, a brief description of why you need this help. PLEASE, AS IN YEARS PAST WE WILL GET INUNDATED WITH REQUESTS. IT WILL BE FIRST COME. PLEASE DON’T BE UPSET IF WE AREN’T ABLE TO HELP YOU, SINCE WE CAN ONLY HELP 30 SINGLE MOTHERS. KNOW IF WE CAN’T HELP YOU, WE WILL BE HERE PRAYING FOR YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN! Email request to: bkeller@liveprayer.com and put SINGLE MOTHER in the subject line. God bless you and enjoy this blessed celebration of the birth of Jesus!!!

***PERSONAL MESSAGE FOR YOU FROM BILL KELLER: Never forget that all things, not some things, not most things, ALL THINGS are possible with God!!!

***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Please Lord, give me the strength that when tested, I will not be silent nor will I be afraid to tell YOUR TRUTH! Give me courage, give me strength, and let me stand strong for You no matter what the personal consequences! In the name of Jesus I pray...AMEN!

***THE DAILY LIVEPRAYER TV NUGGET: The globalists who have been running the country the last 4 yrs are determined to do everything possible to leave Trump with as many problems as possible in their final days in power. The treasonous Homeland Security Secretary Mayorkas is using their special app designed to bring in millions of illegals from around the world in a way that would not be so obvious, is STILL using that app with 39 days to go and bringing in illegals worldwide into the country as we speak! Days after Trump won the election, The Biden Administration gave $10 BILLION DOLLARS in sanction relief to Iran! It was the Biden Administration giving Iran over 100 billion dollars of sanctions relief after Trump had crippled their economy that is responsible for the massacre of Jews in Israel on October 7th! Those dollars allowed Iran to fully fund their terror proxies Hezbollah in Lebanon, the Houthis in Yemen, and Hamas in Gaza. Iran is responsible for the explosion of wars in the Middle East thanks to the Biden Administration letting billions of dollars flow into their coffers. As for the economy, Biden LIED to the country yesterday about what a great economy he has created and is leaving for Trump. A BALD FACED LIE! The latest inflation numbers came out Wednesday morning and the reality is inflation is still a MAJOR issue, the job numbers are horrible, and Trump is inheriting $36 TRILLION of debt and an economic nightmare! This is in addition to every government agency trying to burrow in workers hostile to Trump and his agenda while planting landmines in these agencies to make the job of the incoming Trump Administration as difficult as possible!

***DECEMBER FINANCIAL UPDATE: AMEN! Thanks to the help of many in the Liveprayer family, we have cleared up the first $35,000 of our October ministry operations. So in the first week of December we still require the final $20,000 to clear up October, the $55,000 from November’s ministry operations, and the $55,000 for December’s operations.

That is a total of $130,000 to end 2024 with all of our ministry operations current. OUR GOD IS ABLE!!!

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.

Who will YOU serve today? No matter how long you have been saved, no matter how greatly God is using your life, the fact is that we each wake up in the morning and face the choice of who we will serve that day. We choose to serve the enemy or we choose to serve God. I have preached on the life of Samson many times over the years. His life is very applicable for this message today about the choices that you will make each and every day regarding exactly WHO you will serve.

Samson was miraculously born to a mother who was unable to conceive a child. He was dedicated to God's service, even before he was conceived. While many may scoff at this, I have known many women who were unable to have children, but after much prayer and seeking God, their once barren womb brought forth life! Over the 25 yrs Liveprayer has been online, we have had 5 such births that I can recall off of the top of my head. Samson was dedicated to the Lord's service, grew up being taught all about God, and the Bible says that the "Spirit of God" was upon his life.

One of the points that I want to stress today is that here was a man, dedicated to God even before he was conceived, raised in the "church" of his day, and had a heart so close to God that the Bible even says God's Spirit was upon him. DESPITE THIS, SAMSON, JUST LIKE YOU AND I, WOKE UP EVERY MORNING AND HAD TO MAKE CHOICES THROUGHOUT THE DAY WHO HE WOULD SERVE!

The Bible says that the devil comes to kill, steal, and destroy. If you have accepted Christ into your heart by faith, the Bible says that you are saved (John 3:16, Romans 10:10, Ephesians 2:8-9). However, even though the devil can't have your eternal soul, he can destroy your life, steal the joy, peace, and abundance Jesus promised those who followed Him would know during our brief journey here, and kill us literally.

Over the years I have known many great men and women of God who allowed sin in their life to consume them to the point of death. One dear brother got into the bondage of drug addiction and died from an overdose. One pastor I know looked to alcohol instead of the Lord in times of trouble and alcohol eventually destroyed his liver and he died much earlier than he should have because of it. One sister who did many great things for God allowed the enemy to throw her into a state of depression to the point that she took her own life.

SATAN IS NOT THE CLASS CLOWN, A CARTOON CHARACTER, SOME MISCHIEVOUS PARTY ANIMAL THAT LOVES TO HAVE FUN. SATAN IS A VERY REAL ENEMY WHO PLAYS FOR KEEPS AND IS OUT TO DESTROY THE LIFE OF THE CHILD OF GOD, STEAL ALL OF THE GOOD THINGS THAT THIS LIFE CAN OFFER, AND LITERALLY HELP YOU MAKE CHOICES THAT WILL KILL YOU! HE IS NOT PLAYING GAMES!

As you read through the life of Samson, he chose to turn from God over and over. Samson knew how God felt about being unequally yoked with nonbelievers. Samson knew God's plan for marriage. Samson knew God forbids sex outside of marriage. Yet Samson's weakness was women, women who did not know or honor the God of Israel. The enemy is persistent. He will tempt the child of God over and over and over until he finds the weakness in their life. Samson's weakness was women.

Each day, just like you and me, Samson had to choose who he would serve that day. As much as the anointing of God was on his life, even though he served God in miraculous ways, even though God used him to bless many, IT WAS SAMSON WHO HAD TO MAKE THE CHOICE EACH DAY WHO HE WOULD SERVE. Over and over, Samson chose sin over God. Over and over, God showed his love and grace to Samson and gave him chances to straighten his life out.

But Samson took God's grace and mercy for granted, refused to turn from his sin, and it was his sin that ultimately destroyed his life, stole all of the blessings God had for him, and in the end, killed him!!!

I love you and care for you so much. Let me encourage you today. If you have chosen to serve sin, have allowed things to enter into your life that God does not approve of, TODAY is the day that you can stop. Is it that easy? NO WAY! It will be the hardest thing that you have ever done. But if you take the first step, God will strengthen you and help you to turn away from sin, and back to Him.

THE CHOICE THAT YOU MAKE TODAY COULD LITERALLY SAVE YOUR LIFE! BUT IT IS A CHOICE THAT YOU MUST MAKE, NOBODY CAN MAKE IT FOR YOU!!!

God loves you and cares for you even more. Each day, He gives you the choice to love Him and serve Him. Even those who have loved Him and served Him for many years, STILL, each day must make that choice. I pray today that you learn from Samson's life, and choose God. When you choose sin, you will always pay a price much higher than you ever expected, and your sin will steal your joy and peace, destroy your life, and in the end kill you like it did Samson!

Each day I get hundreds of emails from all over the world from people saying that what I write is intolerant, it isn't for "today," that there is nothing wrong with doing what we want. They simply don't understand that God loves us SO MUCH, that He sent His Word to encourage us and guide us along our journey here. How He shows us to live our life is not to keep us from enjoying our life, but to know the peace, joy, and abundance that this life can offer.

God loves us enough to give us the free will to choose each day whether we will serve Him or not. That is a choice that I will make today, and it is a choice that YOU will make today. My prayer for you is that you will choose to serve God!

In His love and service,

Your friend and co-laborer in His work,

Bill Keller
