***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
Recently a CNN special accused Christians of being “imposter Christians.” Of course this was obviously produced by a worldly Christ-hater. His reasoning is that if we were true Christians we would be fine with there being more than 2 genders, with women being able to kill their baby any time, any place and for any reason, and to support open borders and “welcome the stranger.” The author goes on to basically lay out the agenda of the “religious left!” I have been warning people about this uprising within the church for decades now. There is a growing group of heretics who call themselves Christians but violate the Bible on so many issues. Like so often is the case, it is those on the religious left who are the imposter Christians!!! The special also tried to make a case that imposter Christians want to turn the US into a theocracy, using labels like Christian dominionists and Christian nationalists. I have heard these false narratives for decades and they couldn't be further from the truth. No true Biblical Christian wants to turn the nation into a Christian theocracy with Christianity as the “state religion.” THAT WAS THE NUMBER ONE REASON FOR THE FOUNDING OF OUR NATION, FLEEING A STATE RELIGION FOR THE FREEDOM TO WORSHIP AS EACH PERSON BELIEVES! The bottom line is the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God representing Absolute Truth and our final authority in all matters. Jesus said if you love Me, you will obey Me...meaning HIS WORD!!!

***August Financial Update***
Thank you to all who have been praying and those able to help me with a gift during July. We ended July still carrying the final $35,000 from our June shortfall and of course the $55,000 we required for our July ministry operations. That is a total of $90,000 to clear up our shortfalls heading into our anniversary month of August. God is able!
26TH ANNIVERSARY MONTH! As we head into August, our 26th anniversary month, please pray about helping me with a special one-time gift of $26, $1 for every year, or $260, $10 for every year, or $2,600, $100 for every year, or $26,000, $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."

This Devotional today is a deep one. One of the most frequent questions people always ask, is how do I know what the will of God is for my life? Much of the difficulty in determining what God's will is for our life is trying to separate our wants and desires from God's wants and desires.
This is probably one of the most difficult issues you will ever deal with in your walk with the Lord and I just want to give you some basics to help you in not trying to conform God to your will, but for you to conform to His will.
The only way you can begin to understand what God's will is for your life is to be in a daily, intimate, surrendered relationship with Him. It is critical that you are spending time with the Lord every day through His Word, through prayer, and that quiet time where it is just you and the Lord in fellowship.
That is the only way we can learn to hear His voice so that over time we are able to discern whether it is God speaking or simply ourselves. I can't begin to emphasize enough how important it is to take the time each day to get alone with God and have that time of fellowship. You only begin to know God's will for your life when you really know God.
The key is you have to be at a place in your life where you are fully surrendered to the Lord. You need to be able to say, "Lord, wherever you want me to go, whatever you want me to do, I am completely yours." The biggest hurdle to overcome in following God's will for our life is the fear of the unknown. What is my life going to be like if I follow God? How will my life be different if I really let God have His way?
Trust me, He loves you, cares about you, and only wants the best for you. God wants to bless you and those blessings are found as we faithfully and obediently follow Him!!!
The more we listen to God's voice, the more we obey and follow His voice, the less time we spend trying to force God to follow what we want to do, and the more time we spend trying to follow what God wants us to do. As we grow and mature in our relationship with the Lord, we find ourselves more concerned with what God is asking us to do and we slowly begin to make His desires our desires.
My friend, THAT is the time when you find that special place almost impossible to put into words. That place where your desires have become God's desires. It is clearly no longer your will that you seek but it is His will.
I love you and care about you so much. I will be praying for you that you will get serious about finding and living in God's perfect will each day. It is the only way we truly know the peace, joy, and abundance of this life. In His will, we can do all things because it is not us, it is Him. Outside of His will, we can do nothing. Nothing works or makes sense.
Take some time alone with the Lord today and begin to pray in earnest for God to help you begin to quit trying to conform Him to your will, but for you to conform to His will!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and co-laborer in His work,
Bill Keller
