(1 Corinthians 9:24; Galatians 5:7; Philippians 3:14; 2 Timothy 4:7,8)
***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***
Take your stand for Christ each day in how you live your life! YOU are the only Bible many people will ever read! YOU are His ambassador! YOU are His representative!
As people are already starting to receive their tax refunds, many receiving much more than expected due to the Trump tax cuts, please be praying about sending a tithe to God’s work here at Liveprayer to me save souls off of that tax refund! Amen!
***Daily Personal Prayer For You***
Dear Lord, thank You for the strength You give me each day to be victorious over my enemies. I know satan is out to kill, steal, and destroy, but he is a defeated foe. Through You, I HAVE THE VICTORY! No matter what things may look like in the natural, let me never forget that there is victory in Jesus. Because You have won the victory, I have won the victory. Thank You Jesus! It is in Your name I pray…AMEN!
***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
Pray about our broken judicial system. In Federal districts like DC, the judges are publicly biased and bend over backwards to go against every Trump policy while helping anyone the Trump Administration prosecutes for crimes, even though they know their rogue rulings will be overturned on appeal. Just as bad are the jury pools in places like DC who hate Trump and his administration with over 96% of that jury pool voting for Democrats.
The people in this jury pool have been taught how to NOT indict a Trump foe regardless the overwhelming proof presented to them as to their guilt. They have also been taught that on a trial jury with a Trump foe as the defendant, how to acquit that person regardless of the evidence presented in trial. THIS IS HOW THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM IS DESTROYED AND THE RULE OF LAW WITH IT!!! Pray!

***February Financial Update***
After covering the balance of our 2025 shortfall, we have able to take care of $15,000 of our January shortfall leaving the final $40,000 to end January with all of our ministry operations current. I am praying we can clear that balance up in the first week of February so we can begin working on the $55,000 we require for our February ministry operations. PRAISE THE LORD!
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."
To give a gift to Liveprayer you can use your major credit card at: http://liveprayer.com/donate.cfm or you can mail your gift to: Liveprayer, 6662 46th Ave. North, St. Petersburg, FL 33709. All gifts to Liveprayer are 100% tax deductible!

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
We have just enjoyed that time of year as the College and NFL football teams have crowned their champions and we are in the midst of the Winter Olympics in Milan, Italy. Sports fans around the world will be cheering for their countries athletes using their God-given talents and abilities to try and help their nation win gold, silver, and bronze medals. As the Olympics are underway I began thinking about another sports fan, Paul.
Paul made several analogies between the Christian life and sports in his writings. Most had to do with the training an athlete undergoes in preparing to compete. This weekend I saw another analogy that I am sure Paul did as well. During the course of the Super Bowl, these athletes competed using every bit of their talents and abilities to help their team win. As the game goes on, some step up and perform heroically helping their team to win.
IF AN ATHLETE CAN USE ALL OF HIS TALENTS AND ABILITIES TO WIN A GAME, HOW MUCH MORE SHOULD A CHILD OF GOD USE THEIR TALENTS AND ABILITIES TO SERVE OUR LORD?
Let me challenge you today my friend. If an athlete can go out and train, practice for endless hours perfecting their skills, go out on the day of a game and give everything they have to win a game that in light of eternity is meaningless, the child of God should train harder, practice harder, and never give less than everything we have since those people we reach for Christ can escape everlasting separation from God and enjoy eternity with Him.
The performance of an athlete during a game may determine who wins and loses that particular game, but the performance of those who serve the Lord can determine if a person spends eternity with the Lord or is forever separated from Him. While what that athlete does may be important for that moment, what the servant of God does is important for all eternity!!!
I want you to understand today that what you do for the Lord has eternal significance. The way you live your life each day, sharing your faith in Christ with others, allowing God to work through you to bless someone else is greater than scoring the winning touchdown in the Super Bowl. Even though star athletes get paid millions of dollars for what they do on the field, the child of God is paid in things more precious than silver and gold for what they do for the Lord.
You can't put a price on the peace and joy only God can give you. You can't put a price on God's blessings. God's rewards for those who are faithful in serving Him are far greater than all the riches of this world!!!
I love you and care about you so much. I will be praying for you today to NEVER forget how important what you do for Christ each day really is. You may not be performing on prime time television, or be on ESPN, but nothing any athlete does in their sport can compare to what you do when you are serving the Lord. They are providing entertainment to those who they reach, you are providing the words of LIFE to those who you reach.
Even though man looks at the athlete as a hero, God looks at those who serve Him as a true hero!!!
The next time you are watching a sporting event, enjoy the special talents of those who are playing the game. But never forget God has given you special talents too. He has given every one of His children gifts and talents to serve Him with. Exercise your gifts and use your talents to share the hope and love of Christ with the lost and hurting in your life.
There may not be a stadium full of people cheering as you faithfully serve our Lord, but there is an angelic host rooting you on and Jesus is on His throne waiting to welcome you into Glory when your race is finished!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and co-laborer in His work,
Bill Keller
