***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***
“But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.” I Corinthians 15:57
I need your help today!!! Liveprayer is at a very critical place financially and require funds to continue our operations. I am praying and standing in faith for the one/ones God is calling to help me at this moment!
Praise God we received $5,000 over the Labor Day holiday weekend of the critical $15,000 from our July shortfall that we need immediately. The final critical $10,000 and the $15,000 we required on Friday from the July shortfall takes the immediate pressure off of our financial challenges. Please pray about helping me with a special gift today as we dig out of a financial hole due to a slow summer.
Never before was the voice of Liveprayer more critical as we head into the final 4 months of the year. The elections in November will be a referendum from God on our nation, Thanksgiving, the celebration of Christ’s birth, the final days of 2026 and the dawn of 2027. These moments in history along with the daily events in the United States and around the world like the war in Ukraine, the Iran conflict, the economy, and so many others that haven’t occurred yet along with the daily challenges we all face living in this fallen world.
With your prayers and faithful sacrifices, it will insure we will continue to be a bold, visible voice for God’s Truth and the hope we have in Jesus on the front lines battling satan for the eternal souls of men!
*A SPECIAL VIDEO MESSAGE FROM LIVEPRAYER FOUNDER REV. BILL KELLER, ASKING YOU TO STAND IN AGREEMENT FOR SEVERAL VERY PERSONAL PRAYER NEEDS! https://rumble.com/v7f61oa-liveprayer-with-bill-keller-9726.html
***Prayer***
Dear Lord, I have strayed from you and want to come home. I have allowed the daily life in this world to lead me astray, to allow me to drift from you, and I miss you dear Lord! Today, I recommit my heart and life to you and to serve you. Use me for your glory Lord. Make my life count for your Kingdom. Above all, bring to me your PEACE and JOY! Give me the joy of my salvation again as I walk close to you each moment of each day. In Jesus name I pray...AMEN!
*Please say a special prayer for President Trump. We know evil forces here and around the world want him dead. They continue to try to kill him as the media sits in silent agreement! There are currently hundreds of workers on the White House grounds building the new Ballroom and National Security Bunker who ARE NOT usually present. Pray that God will protect President Trump from any who may try to take his life! Amen!
***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***
Friday was the 25th anniversary of the worst terror attack on US soil in our 250 year history. Like most living through that fateful day, I remember it like it was yesterday. Like most days I was in my Liveprayer office at 5am. I usually have 3 TV’s on various news channels playing. I remember looking up as the first plane hit the Trade Center tower at apx. 8:45. It was assumed that a small plane with an inexperienced pilot had gotten disoriented flying through the NYC skyline which has been known to happen. I continued working but turned up the volume on one of the TVs to hear the details of what happened.
I remember pausing and watching the coverage as the media was working to confirm the details of what had happened. It was about 15 minutes later a shadow came across the screen and there was an explosion in the second tower. It was quickly confirmed that the shadow was the second plane, and it was clear that it purposely flew into the second tower. There was now no confusion, the United States was under attack!
As I stopped working to watch the various news coverage of the 2 planes that had purposely flown into the 2 World Trade Center Towers, a little after 9:30 we learned another plane had been flown into the Pentagon. Just 30 minutes later we learned another plane had crash landed in a field in Shanksville, Pa. It would be hours later that we learned that plane was heading towards our nation’s capital Washington DC, and was most likely going to be flown into the dome of the Capitol or possibly the White House. It had crashed in Shanksville as the passengers rushed the cockpit and fought the hijackers, almost guaranteeing they would all be killed in the process.
Minutes later we found out that the FAA had banned all takeoffs of civilian aircraft and there was a complete nationwide ground stop ordered requiring all planes to land at the nearest available airport. US airspace was officially closed to all incoming domestic flights as they began the process of landing over 4,500 aircraft. At around 12:15pm the last remaining commercial flight over the continental US safely landed, clearing the skies.
That decision to ground all flights saved countless lives. United Airlines Flight 23, a Boeing 767 was scheduled to fly from JFK in New York to Los Angeles on the morning of 9/11. Flight 23, packed with 160 passengers and over 50,000 gallons of highly explosive jet fuel was scheduled to depart at 9am. The plane had pushed back from the gate and had begun taxiing, but right before it could take off the FAA nationwide ground stop order was issued and the plane went back to the gate.
IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE HORRIBLE EVENTS OF 9/11, WE LEARNED WHAT TRUE HEROISM LOOKS LIKE AS MERE MEN AND WOMEN ROSE TO THE OCCASION AND MET THAT MOMENT WITH SELFLESS ACTS OF COURAGE GREATER THAN THEMSELVES. WHETHER IT WAS THE BRAVE PASSENGERS ON UNITED FLIGHT 93, THE ALMOST ENDLESS NUMBER OF HEROS IN THE NYPD, NYFD, EMTS, AND THEIR BRETHREN FROM AROUND NY AND MOST STATES, TO JUST ORDINARY, AVERAGE PEOPLE WHO THAT DAY AND IN THE DAYS THAT FOLLOWED WERE ANYTHING BUT ORDINARY AND AVERAGE! ALMIGHTY GOD INSPIRED MEN AND WOMEN OF ALL AGES, RACES, AND CREEDS TO RISE UP AND PERFORM HEROIC DEEDS THAT WILL GO DOWN IN THE ANNALS OF US HISTORY!
As the nation pauses to commemorate the 25th anniversary of 9/11, I remember the mantra in the days that followed those horrible events was “we will never forget!” I submit to you 25 years we have TOTALLY FORGOTTEN what 9/11 was. 9/11 was an attack on the west by followers of the 1400 year satanically inspired false religion of Islam!
Radical Muslim and terror supporter Hasan Piker is a radical streamer with a large audience and leader of the takeover of the Democratic Party by the Red (Communist)/Green (Islam) Alliance! Piker has never backed down from his proclamation that the “US deserved 9/11.” He proudly displays on his broadcasts a picture of the Twin Towers after the 2 planes hit them and the smoke billowed from the gaping holes just prior to them coming down!
Just 25 years later Muslims have invaded every aspect of American life, not to assimilate into that life, but to destroy it and force people to follow the satanic lies of Islam or be killed. MUSLIMS HAVE NEVER ASSIMILATED INTO ANY PLACE AROUND THE WORLD THEY HAVE SETTLED OVER THEIR 1400 YEAR HISTORY. They don’t come to assimilate, they come to dominate! The war against the evil of Islam will never be over until God ends this world as we know it.
If you go to Dearborn, Michigan you will think you have been transported to Cairo or some Muslim city in the Middle East. The Muslims now have their sights on taking over Texas, THE STATE OF TEXAS! There are very few places you can go in the United States today where Muslims are absent and their false beliefs out in the open for all to see.
Around the time of 9/11 there were apx 1200 mosques in the United States. Ten years ago there were apx. 2100 mosques. Today there are apx. 3100 mosques. Local mosques and Muslim advocacy groups like CAIR have successfully pressured schools at all levels around the country to rewrite the history of 9/11. Of course the globalist corporate media organizations have been soft-selling the dangers of Islam since right after 9/11!
“We will never forget?” When 9/11 happened, the Mayor of New York City was the iconic Rudy Giuliani. Giuliani the 3 man at the Department of Justice, is credited with among other things taking down the 5 families of the New York Mafia while he was US Attorney. In the aftermath Rudy became correctly labeled “America’s Mayor” as he led that city and to some extent the nation after 9/11.
Today, the Mayor of New York City is Ugandan born, 34 year old Zohran Mamdani. Mamdani is a radical Muslim who supports terror organizations, has never accomplished anything in his life, and hates the United States. At today’s solemn 9/11 ceremony at Ground Zero, Mamdani sat next to the radical socialist and DSA member Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. As they were reading the names of the dead, as the bell rang for each one, cameras captured video of AOC and Mamdani laughing. LAUGHING!!! My friend, TWENTY FIVE YEARS LATER WE HAVE FORGOTTEN!!!
I fully realize the virtually endless conspiracy theories regarding 9/11. Theories regarding the collapse of the Twin Towers, the involvement of the US government, especially the CIA, the role of Saudi Arabia, the lives of the hijackers here in the US, to everything else regarding the events of 9/11. I will let others debate those issues.
I have no doubt that today there were special services of celebration at most of the 3,100 mosques in the United States and throughout the Islamic world today. Muslims worldwide view 9/11 as the greatest military victory in their 1400 history.
25 years after 9/11 the United States is being attacked daily in every possible way by Islam. One reason I have been on the Southern Poverty Law Center's “hate map” the last 16 years is because I have the guts to tell the truth about Islam. I have long advocated for every non-US citizen who is a Muslim to be deported within 90 days due to being a national security risk. That includes Muslims here on a green card, any type of VISA, every single one who isn’t a US citizen. Every Muslim who is a naturalized citizen must be reviewed for a revocation of their citizenship and deported.
Sadly we don’t have politicians with the guts to take such a step, so please keep praying for God’s protection over those who want our nation destroyed, and every one of us who refuses to bow to their fake god allah killed! May He protect us from the satanic demons who follow the satanically inspired lies of Islam! Amen!

***Back in 2008 a very popular New Age book was “The Shack” written by William Paul Young. This came out at the time I was in the media taking on Oprah when she was at her heights for claiming to be a Christian, but pushing the New Age universalistic lie from the pits of hell that “everyone will get to Heaven” by tools of satan like Marianne Williamson, Eckhart Tolle, and Deepak Chopra to name a few A sequel titled, “Return to the Shack: A Journey into Redemption” is scheduled for release this October 6th. Nearly 20 years later with now a 3rd generation where the vast majority have never been to church and even those in church mostly Biblically illiterate, I have no doubt this book will be a bestseller! The latest version of “The Shack” is simply more New Age lies beautifully packed as spiritual truth that will lead ignorant souls to hell that embrace those lies!!!
(From the Liveprayer Daily Devotional in October 2008)
"The Shack" is NOT a Christian novel, but simply more New Age heresy. It has now been made into a movie that churches are actually telling their people to go see!!!
Things have not really changed since the first days of the church over 2,000 years ago. One of the problems Paul dealt with often were those who perverted the Absolute Truth of the Bible with writings that purported to be Christian. All throughout these past 2,000 years men have written books about the Christian faith that compromised the Truth of the Bible. We have never been so ripe for these types of heretical books as in the year 2009, with the better part of 2 generations having never even gone to church and the large percentage of those who do, being Biblically illiterate. So it is no wonder that a huge best-selling "Christian novel," "The Shack," is the latest in a long line of heretical books promoting anti-Biblical ideas.
William P. Young, the author of "The Shack," is the son of missionaries whose dad also pastored churches in Canada. He went to Bible College and later graduated with an undergraduate degree in Religion from Warner Pacific College in Portland, Oregon. However, there is absolutely no information available on his theology. "The Shack" is an allegorical fictional novel. It conveys postmodern spiritual ideas and teachings that challenge Biblical Christianity, all in the name of God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Much like New Age author James Redfield's book "The Celestine Prophecy," "The Shack" is a fictional vehicle for upending certain Biblical concepts and presenting contrary spiritual scenarios. Young's book moves through a very engaging and emotional story to eventually present the New Age teaching that God is "in" everything. God is not "in" everyone and everything. The Bible makes it clear that man is not divine and that man is not God!
"The Shack" presents many of the same New Age concepts and ideas that plague the controversial Bible paraphrase The Message, written by Eugene Peterson who enthusiastically endorsed "The Shack," as well as Rhonda Byrne's "The Secret" that I warned you about years ago and was heavily promoted by the queen of the New Age gurus Oprah, New Age leader Benjamin Crome's, "The Reappearance of the Christ and the Masters of Wisdom," and New Age matriarch Alice Bailey, in her book "The Reappearance of the Christ."
This "God in everything" immanence is why The Shack is such a deceptive book. It teaches this same heresy. This is most apparent when he uses the person of "Jesus" to suddenly introduce the foundational teaching of the New Spirituality, God is "in" everything. Using the New Age term "ground of being" to describe "God," the "Jesus" of The Shack states: "God, who is the ground of all being, dwells in, around, and through all things.." (p. 112)
This false teaching about a "God" who "dwells in, around, and through all things" is the kind of New Age leaven that Paul warned about. Clearly, the "Jesus" of The Shack is not Jesus Christ of the Bible. The apostle Paul warned the Corinthians that they were vulnerable and extremely susceptible to "another Jesus" and "another gospel" and "another spirit" that were not from God (2 Corinthians 2:11).
In the Bible, Jesus warned that spiritual deception would be a sign before His return. He further warned that there would be those who would even come in His name, pretending to be Him (Matthew 24:3-5;24). William Young's mixing of truth and error can become very confusing to readers, and God is not the author of confusion (I Corinthians 14:33).
We are living in such perilous times and satan is busy using tools like "The Shack" to lead people astray, many searching for real truth in their lives. This is why I am like a broken record every day to challenge people to get out into the world and take the REAL TRUTH of the Bible to people. They are hurting, looking for answers. Why do you think books like this are so popular? It doesn't help when you have people like Pat Robertson featuring Young on The 700 Club, not to rebuke or chastise his New Age concepts, but to promote his book.
This is why I come down so hard on cotton candy preachers like Osteen, exposed Masonic cult members like the late Robert Schuller who promoted many of these same New Age concepts and even sells New Age garbage in his crystal church's bookstore, warn you about these watered down, compromised seeker/purpose driven/emergent church movements geared to attract bodies and not souls. People are looking for life changing answers, and the ONLY place they will find those answers are in the Bible!!!
Listen, there is SO much material out there. My word of wisdom for you today is this. First, know who the author is. Research them and find out what their theology is. If you can't find it, STAY AWAY! You wouldn't go to a stranger for open heart surgery, why look for Biblical Truth from someone you don't even know. If the book isn't tied to Scripture, have any sort of Scriptural references (from credible translations and not these perverted paraphrase Bibles), STAY AWAY! I don't care how clever man thinks he is, there is no substitution for the Word of God!!! It is the ONLY Truth there is that can truly change hearts and lives.
I love you and care about you so much. "The Shack" has touched the hearts and emotions of many people. While there are many other examples of the author's unbiblical teachings, the heretical New Age concept that "God dwells in, and around, and through all things" is in and by itself enough to make this book dangerous. To allow yourself to get carried away by this story, while disregarding the book's New Age concepts, is the kind of compromise that has invaded the church today.
I have learned over these many years of ministry to be very leery of anything that is embraced by the world and becomes wildly popular by the masses. The fact is, the pure Truth of the Bible is NOT something this lost world gravitates to. They want something that feels good, makes them happy for a moment, helps them through a difficult time, without making any real commitment or sacrifice in return. That is why the spiritual crack of our day, these New Age teachings are so popular. Sacrifice and service don't sell, success and satisfaction does!!!
I will be praying for those who are caught up in "The Shack," that the Lord will put the right people in their lives to help guide them to the real Truth of His Word. That they will come to know the God of the Bible, the Jesus of the Bible, the Holy Spirit of the Bible, and not the perverted creations from men's minds. Young's created trinity is no different than Joseph Smith's or those of any other false prophet. Now more than ever, men need to be led to faith in Jesus Christ and to the Truth of His Word alone!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and co-laborer in His work,
Bill Keller
