***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***
In these final days, pray each morning that the Lord will use your life during that day to bring people the love and hope we have in Jesus!
Please pray about helping me with a gift over the next few days. Thanks to the sacrifices of so many in December God blessed us have ended 2025 with just an $80,000 shortfall. Over the first week of the new year we have covered $25,000 of that shortfall leaving the final $55,000. I praying we can clear up that balance in the coming days and start working on the $55,000 we require for our January ministry operations. GOD IS ABLE!

Bless me as I go through the day, living my life for your glory. In the name of Jesus I pray...AMEN!
***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
For those who haven’t figured it out yet, as I told you just a month into Trump’s second term FBI Director Kash Patel, the former 2 at the FBI Dan Bongino, and AG Pam Bondi were clearly “captured” by the deep state in the first days after they took office. Sadly, every week that has passed since over the last year has only confirmed what I told you to be true.
People often ask how this happens. Does a spooky guy in a hat and raincoat pay them a visit? Do they get an anonymous phone call in the middle of the night? That is the stuff of movies. Nobody needs to come to them and threaten their family, their finances, even their safety. The first time they go into something the deep state doesn’t want them involved in, they get a clear message thru the feedback of others involved and roadblocks that pop up often out of nowhere. It becomes obvious they are down a road that has been closed by the deep state and without anyone saying anything to them, they back off!
Unless there is a major shake-up, all of the top government actors starting with President Obama, VP Biden and for 4 years President Biden, the top people of the Obama and Biden regimes and even a large percentage of those in the first Trump Administration, the leadership and top executives at the FBI, DOJ, CIA, and others within virtually all of the government agencies from late 2015 thru the present day, non-government allies primarily in the legal world, along with their sycophants and co-conspirators in the media...WILL NEVER BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF CRIMES THEY COMMITTED OVER THE LAST DECADE!!!
THIS IS WHY SUPPORTERS OF PRESIDENT TRUMP, THOSE IN THE MAGA/AMERICA FIRST BASE AT RIGHTLY UPSET, MAY I EVEN SAY SPITTING MAD!!!
Over my 33 years of ministry, I have always railed against the fact satan’s minions never stop until they have achieved their evil agenda. They don’t sleep, they don’t take naps, they are relentless in pursuing their goals. Yes they are ruthless, operate without morals or ethics of any kind, don’t blink at breaking the law, because for them winning is everything and they have taken the calculated risk that they will get away with it...AND THEY HAVE BEEN RIGHT! Instead of an orange jumpsuit and bars, they have huge book deals and cable TV gigs.
In the meantime, most of God’s children are happy they are saved and going to spend eternity in Heaven so they are happy with small victories when they happen and are just as fine with losing. Few have the drive, the never say no attitude, or the guts to fight satan’s army on a daily basis. They have learned how to accept losing. That is why in this fallen world we wake up each morning and see sin abound, watch in silence as sin wins over and over and over. Just as satan’s minions will fight to the death to be victorious, most of God’s people have accepted losing!
Almost a year into Trump’s second term, Bongino has quit and gone back to his media operation. For the record, he gave up NOTHING financially to be the FBI 2. He simply transferred everything into his wife’s name. That is fine but to hear the story that he made a huge financial sacrifice to join the FBI is simply not true. Bongino’s few months of utter failure was the most blatant sign he, Patel, and Bondi had caved to the deep state. He spent 8 yrs in the media on FOX, the radio, his podcast touting his experience as a NYC cop, years with the Secret Service, dissecting every criminal government operation targeting Trump and his followers. He garnered a big following and made millions of dollars. The average person was excited when he was named the 2 at the FBI.
Than weeks turned into months and at the end of the day Bongino accomplished ZERO that a first year beat cop couldn’t have accomplished with the resources and might of the US government. The real issues people wanted him and Patel to deal with was the decade of criminal activity by people they had correctly identified thru their media appearances and Patel’s book Government Gangsters.
ONE YEAR LATER THERE IS NOT ONE PERSON THAT HAS BEEN HELD ACCOUNTABLE OR ANYONE EVEN UNDER INDICTMENT EXCEPT JOHN BOLTON WHO IS GOING TO PRISON FOR HIS PERSONAL CRIMES INVOLVING CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS HE HAD NO LEGAL AUTHORITY TO HAVE, NOT THE 10 YRS OF CRIMINAL ATTACK ON TRUMP, HIS FAMILY AND INNER CIRCLE, AND THOSE WHO VOTED/SUPPORTED HIM.
My suspicions Bongino, Patel, and Bondi were captured were actually confirmed in the first month after Bongino and Patel took power. One day Bongino stated he had reviewed the files of Crooks and Routh, the two men who tried to assassinate Trump in 2024 to keep him from becoming the 47th President after 3 yrs of lawfare designed to put him in prison for the rest of his life and bankrupt him had failed. Bongino stated that there was no “there, there.” He publicly declared they acted alone and the cases are closed.
Nobody with a brain buys that nonsense. We have seen NOTHING of import regarding either one of these people. Nothing from their phones, computers, their personal lives, contacts, or anything else that would start answering the question who tried to kill Trump not once but two times? The deep state has buried all information that would answer that question and Bongino was obediently shutting the door to the public. As I stated earlier, nobody had to tell him what to do, he knew!
Now back at his media empire, Bongino is lashing out at people on his side who DARE tell the truth about his utter failure after caving to the deep state. Because he controls his content, he will NEVER allow anyone to challenge him on these issues. He will be no different than MSNBC who refuse to put opposing views on their air. When the real tough issues come up, he will talk about wishing he could tell people everything, but he signed NDA’s, issues are classified or “under investigation” and he simply can’t discuss anything that mean anything significant. I will add a personal note that the one thing Bongino will accomplish is proving PT Barnum correct when he talked about “suckers” as he heads back to his microphone.
Bondi who loves doing TV hits, was in the spotlight this week after Republican Congressman James Comer, the head of the powerful House Oversight Committee, ripped her for doing nothing regarding dozens of criminal referrals his committee has made to the DOJ on numerous issues. All of those issues deal with that 10 yrs of criminal activity targeting Trump and his supporters. He also ripped Bondi for not pushing a legal case to adjudicate the legality of Biden’s Auto-Pen pardons. Having never been before a court, we need to know if those pardons are even legal. So far Bondi and the DOJ have done NOTHING!
Lastly, those who doubt the reach of the deep state, the mostly Trump hating Republican Senators refuse to blow up two traditions of the Senate (NOT in the Constitution) like blue slips for US Attorneys and the filibuster. BOTH TRADITIONS THE DEMOCRATS WILL BLOW UP THE SECOND THEY GET POWER BACK, IN POWER. These tactics have blocked a huge percentage of Trump’s nominees for US Attorneys and other key positions. This has left many Biden-era Trump hating US Attorneys around the country in place who work daily to block the agenda 80 million Americans voted for him to fulfill.
The sick truth is you have the majority of those in ALL of the government agencies who loathe Trump and the MAGA/America First movement. They view their job is to obstruct and block all policies, to do everything they can to insure his agenda for the country fails. Once you get past Trump’s political appointments who lead the government agencies, you can find people littered all throughout critical executive positions over EVERY government agency that a simple Google search reveals a history of opposing Trump often in the most vile ways. They have a clear history of TDS yet are still in their positions of great power and influence!
Pray my friend. We understand that justice is often never realized during this brief journey. We also KNOW that the moment each person takes their last breath there will be the ultimate justice, God’s justice! I believe that if God’s people will rise up and start fighting, not giving up until they taste victory no matter the personal cost, only then will see God’s richest blessings abundantly flow upon our land again. Our blessings come from our obedience to Almighty God and His Word!!!
Rise up and fight oh men and women of God. We know at the end God wins and satan loses. There is no reason to cede even one victory, even the smallest victory to satan. He is a liar, a loser, and the Lake of Fire awaits him and his minions for all eternity!!!

***January Financial Update***
Praise the Lord! Thanks to the prayers and generous sacrifices of many in the Liveprayer family, we ended 2025 with a shortfall of just $80,000. So far we have covered $25,000 leaving a 2025 balance of $55,000. I am praying that we can clear up the balance of our 2025 shortfall over the next week so we can begin to work on the $55,000 we require for our January ministry operations. That is $110,000 to end January with all of our ministry operations current! OUR GOD IS ABLE!
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."

Contact me for information about this incredible way to help God's work here at Liveprayer: bkeller@liveprayer.com
By the way I have been seeking the Lord since the start of this year for God to lead someone He has blessed richly to make a legacy gift of $15,000,000 to Liveprayer. That would insure that when God decides to call me home Liveprayer will continue to impact lives and lead lost souls to faith in Jesus for a minimum of 20 years. Please stand in agreement with me for the Lord to raise up that person!
Live on after you are in Heaven!!! By remembering God's work here at Liveprayer in your will/estate planning, you can still help me share His Truth with the masses, be here for people in their time of greatest need, and help lead the lost to faith in Jesus even after God has called you home!!! God has led many of our friends in the Liveprayer family to remember His work here in their will. Please pray about this opportunity to continue and partner with me in the Lord's work at Liveprayer, even after you are enjoying your rewards and the eternal peace of Heaven! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me at: bkeller@liveprayer.com
This is by far one of the most controversial issues in the church today. One of the things that grieves the heart of God the most is the division within His body. Perhaps nothing has divided the Body of Christ more than the issue of spiritual gifts. The sad fact is, it is a lack of understanding of this issue that has caused this division. Those who worship in a Pentecostal or Charismatic style church, embrace this issue, often too much so.
Those who worship in more mainline denominational style churches such as the United Methodist, Presbyterian, or Baptist, ignore this issue, often too much so. Like in most differences, the truth is usually somewhere in the middle, and the issue of spiritual gifts is no different.
Let me first clear up some beliefs that are 100% incorrect. Many who do not embrace spiritual gifts take the position that they are not for this day, that at some point they ceased to exist. NOTHING could be farther from the truth. There is NO, ZERO, Biblical support for this. Jesus told his followers that they would do even GREATER things than He did. He healed people, raised the dead, fed the multitudes with a few loaves and fishes, among other miracles.
Likewise, those who hold to the belief that those who do not operate in certain gifts are not saved or spiritually immature, are just as wrong. The biggest issue in this area are those who claim that if you do not have the gift of tongues you do not have the Holy Spirit. 100% WRONG! The Bible CLEARLY says that EVERYONE who is saved, receives the gift of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit is the "Promise" Jesus spoke of.
The Spirit is the "Comforter." Being YIELDED to the Spirit of God that resides within you is the issue. When you hear of people being "baptized in the Holy Spirit," if they are saved they already possess the Holy Spirit. What is actually happening is that they are YIELDING to the power of the Holy Spirit that is within them. THAT is something that each person must do everyday to allow the power of the Holy Spirit to flow through their life. This hotly debated issue is more an issue of semantics than anything else.
As for Spiritual Gifts. These are special gifts that God gives to His children at specific times, for very specific purposes. God does not do ANYTHING by accident. Likewise, you cannot just activate the Gifts of God like you turn on a light switch. The biggest abuse of this is in the area of healing. YES, God does use human instruments to heal people. I will say that 99% of his human instruments are DOCTORS!
Can someone rent a 20,000 seat arena, have a 200-voice choir, an orchestra majestically lead the crowd in 1 hour of praise and worship, at the height of this emotional experience, spend 45 minutes taking an offering, then open the altar for people to come forward and be healed and people are actually healed? Yes! But even in this kind of situation it is God using the faith of the individual, in accordance with HIS plan, that brings about the healing. Never forget, in the Bible when Jesus healed someone, He said, "go, thy faith has made thee whole!"
The point is you do not have to go to a big crusade or be in the presence of a certain person to be healed. It is JESUS who heals through our faith, and in accordance with God's ultimate plan. I have over a million praise reports from people who have sent in healing requests to Liveprayer over the last 26+ years who have been touched by God. Was there something magical about the prayers they got from here? NO. But God did hear those prayers and used the faith of the person in accordance with His perfect plan to bring about their healing. All Bill Keller or any other person can do is to pray with you and challenge you to believe, and to put your faith in God. The same Jesus who healed in the Bible, is the same Jesus that heals today.
The other gift that is greatly abused is that of the prophet. In the Old Testament, God often spoke through the prophet. Now that we have His Word, a prophet is someone who declares the oracles of God. A prophet is not a psychic, though God can give a prophet direction for a person or situation in advance. Most who call themselves prophets however, speak in a lofty language, and much like the psychics, speak in generalities that can apply to almost ANY situation. I have always challenged ANYONE who wants to claim this gift to read what the Bible says about a prophet. The Biblical mandate for anyone claiming to be a prophet is that the FIRST time they are wrong, they are to be taken to the edge of the city and stoned to death. I wonder how many prophets and prophetesses there would be if this was their penalty for being wrong?
The bottom line to this sadly divisive issue is that spiritual gifts DO EXIST. They are NOT a sign of spiritual superiority but special gifts that God gives to His children at specific times for VERY specific purposes. The fact is that EVERY believer has at least one gift and no believer has ALL of the gifts. The Bible says we should desire the gifts of God so that we can better fulfill our purpose of serving Him. The purpose of this Devotional is not to get into a theological debate over this issue. I am not here for that purpose, and I refuse to allow myself to get entangled in that kind of exchange.
I realize that there is much teaching on this issue and possibly your church teaches things that might contradict what I have said. I will say this. One reason I rarely deal with this issue, is that like prophecy, people can get so focused on this one issue, that they forget the most important issue of all which is what Liveprayer is here to do. That is to help you translate your faith into your everyday life and fulfill all that God intends for your life to be. I have preached in churches of every denomination and the one common bond in every church, no matter WHAT position they take on issues like Spiritual Gifts is that there are people hurting, and looking for encouragement and answers in their day to day life.
I love you and care about you very much. I will be praying for you today, especially that you don't allow an issue like Spiritual gifts divide you from other parts of the Body of Christ. Like Paul writes, we each are a different part of the SAME Body. I will pray however that you open your heart to all that God wants to do with and through your life. To accomplish that, He will often give you special gifts to carry out His work. I pray that you open your heart to His will and plan for your life. Never limit the power of God that allows you to best serve Him.
In His love and service,
Your friend and co-laborer in His work,
Bill Keller
