***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***
Read the 30th Psalm 3x. Pray and meditate on each and every word. It is God's GIFT to YOU today!!!
I need your help! As we are into the final days of June, we ended May with a shortfall of $35,000. So far we have covered $20,000 of May’s $35,000 shortfall leaving the final $15,000. I am praying that we can cover the balance of May’s ministry operations by the end of June!

***Prayer***
Dear Lord, bless me this day as I do my best to live for You. Lord, let me do at least one thing this day to bring Glory to You! Use my life today as a living sacrifice. I love You Lord, and I pray today I can show it not with my words but my deeds. In the name of Jesus I pray...AMEN!
***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
34 years ago when I answered God’s call to the ministry, I rejected the standard ministry route of pastoring a church, or a conventional evangelistic ministry that held crusades via a network of local churches that ended up mostly being a big church event, preaching to the choir in the Christian subculture, or going into the world of Christian media.
No, the Lord had called me to preach to the lost and hurting masses outside of the 4 walls of the church, to pray for people going thru the hurts, pains, and struggles of life we all face, and leading lost souls to faith in Jesus Christ. I quickly realized this calling would be lonely and often sad as warning people to abandon sin and change their ways was not a popular message the masses wanted to hear.
Jeremiah was so upset that he wanted to stop speaking for God, but God's message was like a fire in his heart that he could not hold back. I understand that frustration of warning the masses of God’s pending judgment for our sin and rebellion, warnings that are ignored, mocked, and even met with violence from those in satan’s army who want to shut me up!
The prophet Isaiah also struggled with stubborn people. He complained that the people did not want to hear the truth. They asked the prophets to tell them nice lies instead of real warnings about sin and truth. Again, few people want to hear the Truth. That is why they love gutless wonders like Joel Osteen who tells them jokes, smiles, and only tickles their ears.
In Jeremiah 7:27 the prophet said, "When you tell them all this, they will not listen to you; when you call to them, they will not answer.” Jeremiah 26:5 tells us, “and if you do not listen to the words of my servants the prophets, whom I have sent to you again and again” warning the people of His coming wrath.
The OT prophets had to share what God told them, it was a serious and often thankless job. I understand when Ezra wrote in 2 Chronicles 36:16, “But they mocked God’s messengers, despised his words and scoffed at his prophets until the wrath of the Lord was aroused against his people and there was no remedy!"
I have issued TWO major warnings this month for people to wake up before God unleashes His wrath and punishment on our land for our sins and wickedness. The first was on the Liveprayer TV program Tuesday June 2nd. The warning starts at the 11:40 mark of the program and goes on for 20 minutes. Here is the link to that program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVuURi7A4Uk&t=722s
The second was on the Liveprayaer TV program Wednesday June 24th. The warning starts at the 9:40 mark of the program and goes on for 20 minutes. Here is the link to that program: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMs1gyuIMto&t=590s
Please post this on your social media accounts and share it with everyone you know, especially those in your Bible study, prayer group, Sunday School class, as well as your Pastor and church!!!
God is allowing us to see the enemies He will uses as His instrument of judgement on our nation. Like His judgment on the children of Israel, it won’t last a few years like the warning He gave us during the 4 years of Biden, but will be for generations!
The ball is in our court. We, His people will determine what happens to this nation in the coming years, blessings or punishment! Our fate will be determined by what WE, God’s people do to lead this nation back to our Creator and His Truth over these next 4 months!
AS WE PREPARE TO CELEBRATE OUR 250TH BIRTHDAY, BE PAUL REVERE AND SHARE THESE WARNING FAR AND WIDE WITH EVERYONE YOU KNOW!!!

***June Financial Update***
As we are into the final days of June, we ended May with a shortfall of $35,000. So far we have covered $20,000 of May’s $35,000 shortfall leaving the final $15,000. I am praying that we can cover the balance of May ASAP so we can begin working on as much of the $55,000 we require for our June ministry operation before the end of the month.
That is $70,000 to end June with all of our ministry operation current. Traditionally each year we struggle during the summer months of June, July, and August, but am believing God this year we will have an ABUNDANCE! 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."

*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!

A message of hope to those who are overweight. I have written many Devotionals in the past dealing with keeping our 'temples" in the best shape possible and doing our part in being healthy so that we can serve Jesus at full strength. However, I realize that many are struggling with health issues beyond your control. Issues that in some cases are genetic in nature.
First of all, let me tell you that God loves you for YOU, not how you look! Even though our society has bombarded us through the media with what the "perfect" person LOOKS LIKE..society has failed to show us what the "perfect person" is INSIDE!!!! To all of those reading these words today that are struggling with your weight and appearance, let me assure you that God is concerned about YOUR HEART...NOT...how you look.
My admonitions and encouragement in the past in regard to maintaining our bodies, our "temples", has been from the basis that to serve Him the most effectively, and for as long as possible, there is a responsibility on our part to stay in the best possible physical shape. This is NOT to be adored by the 'world" that we live in, but to be in the best shape possible to fulfill our purpose in this life, which is to serve and glorify God! Nobody will argue that the better you feel, the better you are physically, helps you to accomplish that.
However today, I want to speak directly to those who may have inherited through their genes a body size larger than others, or those who have legitimate medical issues that have caused them to be above the average weight.
Never forget, these are issues that you were born with and NOT your fault. This does not preclude you from working as hard as you can, probably harder than many others, to maintain your body in the best physical condition that you can. But it is NOT your fault that you are overweight! You can only do the best that you can!
In the end, never forget that it is not a person that you have to please, but God. God will not judge you by the scale, but by your commitment to HIM! Continue to work with your doctors, do the best that you can to maintain your body in the best physical shape that you can, but never forget, it is your heart...your walk with the Lord.....that is the most important to God.
*It is worth noting that there are new drugs out there like Ozempic for people who are overweight. Please DO NOT use any of these types of drugs without the supervision of your doctor because they can be dangerous!
I love you and care about you so much. From the tens of thousands of emails that I receive daily, I know that many of you are struggling today with the issue of your weight. First, the key is FORGET about pleasing 'society", and be concerned about pleasing God. I am not saying to ignore the problem that you are battling, I am not saying give up. What I am saying is that you work first on your relationship with the Lord, THAN on your body.
There is so much great science today that God has given to gifted men and women in that area. I pray and encourage you to do all that you can to take advantage of the latest medical research to keep yourself in the best physical shape possible. But never forget that in God's eyes, it is not your weight that HE sees, but your heart for HIM!!!!
I will pray for you today. Continue to do your best to keep yourself in the greatest physical shape that you can. God will guide you and help you in this area. The purpose of this is NOT to please society, but to be able to do our best in serving and glorifying God with our lives.
As I get older, I realize more and more that as important as physical appearance is to the world that we live in, God is mainly concerned with our service and commitment to HIM. Our health is important since it is our way of doing our best to serve Him as long as we can. So do your best in that area. But never forget, ***how you look may be important in this world that we spend a brief time in, but your relationship with Jesus is important for ETERNITY!!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
