(Proverbs 18:9)

***PERSONAL MESSAGE FOR YOU FROM BILL KELLER: I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY! We ended June still requiring the final $30,000 from our May ministry operations and the $55,000 for June. So far we have covered $10,000 of May’s shortfall meaning we still require $75,000 to clear up the shortfall we started July with. $40,000 OF THAT $75,000 IS CRITICALL OVERDUE AND I AM PRAYING FOR ONE OF OUR FRIEND WHO THE LORD HAD BLESSED TO STEP UP AND HELP ME WITH A SPECIAL GIFT AT THIS TIME!!! PLEASE PRAY AND SEEK THE LORD IF HE IS SPEAKING TO YOU ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY!

***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Father, bless me this day to have the courage to stand up for YOUR TRUTH in my daily life. Give me boldness to proclaim YOUR TRUTH when I am with those who mock and demean our faith in Christ and for following the teachings of the Bible. No matter what they may say, let me be not afraid to stand for You. In Jesus name...AMEN!

***THE DAILY LIVEPRAYER TV NUGGET: Sadly, my worst fears are coming true as President Trump is getting us deeper into this war in Ukraine our CIA and State Department started to try and take out Putin. I have been clear that as long as Zelenskyy is leading Ukraine there will NEVER be peace. Trump sending more military hardware for Ukraine thru NATO is nothing but a game. We are told NATO is paying for these weapons, but the problem is we are the main funding source for NATO. Putin knows that Trump is NOT in control of the CIA, and that is who he is at war with. As I stated BEFORE this war began over 3 ½ yrs ago, Ukraine can NOT, EVER, win this war. At best they can fight Russia to a draw which they have, as long as we supply them with money and military hardware along with satellite information and intelligence. I am asking you to take time today and PRAY for God to move on hearts, for there to be peace so the needless killing will stop. Apx. 2 million Russians and Ukrainians are dead and for what? Russia has pretty much the same territory they had when the war started and Ukraine has no ability to take that territory back. PRAY FOR PEACE SO THE NEEDLESS KILLING STOPS!

***JULY FINANCIAL UPDATE: Blessings! I NEED YOUR HELP! We ended June still requiring the final $30,000 from our May ministry operations and the $55,000 for June. So far we have covered $10,000 of May’s shortfall meaning we still require $75,000 to clear up the shortfall we started July with.

*$40,000 OF THAT $75,000 IS CRITICALL OVERDUE AND I AM PRAYING FOR ONE OF OUR FRIEND WHO THE LORD HAD BLESSED TO STEP UP AND HELP ME WITH A SPECIAL GIFT AT THIS TIME!!! PLEASE PRAY AND SEEK THE LORD IF HE IS SPEAKING TO YOU ABOUT THIS OPPORTUNITY!

I am praying we can cover this shortfall by the end of the week so we can work on the $55,000 we require for July’s ministry operations. OUR GOD IS ABLE!

Every year since Liveprayer began we have a difficult time during the summer months as school is out and people are on vacation. However, our God is faithful and always has a ram in the bush. Everyone can pray for God’s blessings over our finances, and those who He has enabled pray about what you can do in the first days of July to help me.

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 WHAT 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."

Being lazy. Many people ask me each day where I get the inspiration for these devotions every day. I literally sit down and write these every morning around 5am. It is quiet in the office, my mind is fresh, and hopefully God is speaking into my heart what to share with you. Some days what I feel God leading me to write makes sense, other days it doesn't. This is a "doesn't" day but here it goes. Amazing to me, even on the "doesn't" days, God is trying to reach someone, maybe you.

I am convinced through Scripture, that God expects us to be busy, to be active, to be productive in our lives. It is through this activity that we earn our living or get an education, participate in sports and other recreational activities, interact with family and friends, and most important...serve Him. You see, lazy people make bad servants.

The Bible tells us to be busy working while there is still light, because night is coming. That means that until Christ returns, we need to be busy serving God so that His plan can be fulfilled. God has a plan and purpose for everyone's life, and for every situation. Since we can't know the entire mind of God, or what His specific plan and purpose is in every case, our job is to simply be obedient. God uses our obedience in serving Him, to accomplish His purpose.

Now I realize that many take a scriptural position that we really don't have to do anything because God is going to do it anyway. Others put the dependence on the actions of man for God's plan to unfold. The Bible actually teaches that is a blending of those extreme positions where it becomes the sovereignty of God working in conjunction with the activity of man.

As far as the issue of being lazy is concerned, the Bible clearly tells us in many passages that it is a sin to be lazy and nonproductive. That is why today I want to encourage you not to fall into this trap. If being lazy is an issue that you battle with, it is time to recognize it and battle to conquer laziness just like any other sin in our life.

I will be praying today that you take a few minutes to analyze your life and if laziness is something you fight, that God will give you the strength to become more active and productive in your daily life. It really is about having focus, having goals, and having projects to complete at all times. In other areas of your life, you have much going on, but often the sin of laziness the Bible is speaking of occurs in our service for God. We have energy to do other things, but in our service to God, we tend to slack off.

My prayer is that you will be just as energetic in serving the Lord as you are in other areas of your life!!!

I love you and care about you so much. I will be praying for you. Make this an active productive day of service for the Lord. Make the rest of 2025 an active, productive time of service for God. He has blessings above and beyond anything you could ever imagine if you just follow Him, love Him, and serve Him each and every day.

In His love and service,

Your friend and co-laborer in His work,

Bill Keller
