***Personal Message For You From Bill Keller***

Choose today who you will serve...AND DO IT!!!

I need your help in these final days of 2025! So far we have cleared up the first $45,000 of our October shortfall. God is great! That leaves the final $10,000 from October, the $55,000 from November, and the $55,000 we will require in December or $120,000 over the final 16 days of December to end the year with all of our ministry operations current. OUR GOD IS ABLE!!!

With only a few weeks until the end of 2025, please be praying about a special year-end gift to Livprayer! For many, a gift to God's work here will help on your taxes since you are either going to give the money to the government to waste, or to Liveprayer to get HIS Truth out to the masses and save souls!!! To give a gift to Liveprayer: http://liveprayer.com/donate.cfm

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!

***Daily Personal Prayer For You***

Oh Lord, help me today to pick up my mantle, whatever You have deemed that to be, and be faithful. Give me Your strength to be all that You have called me to be, and to lead in whatever capacity I have been called to for this season. It is time for Your children, men, women, young adults, to rise up and be counted for You in these last days. Guide me oh great Jehovah as I live and lead for YOU! In the name of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ I pray…AMEN!

***The Daily Liveprayer TV Nugget***

The Monday night December 15th Liveprayer TV program was a critical program not just sharing the important details of the bloodbaths and death around the world this past weekend, but a huge reminder of 3 major issues I have been warning people about, in some cases the last 20 yrs!

The first is warnings about the danger of Islam I have been sharing since we began over 20 yrs ago. I have taken on CAIR in various forums and for telling people about this 1400 year false religion from the depth of hell called Islam, the corrupt Southern Poverty Law center named that as one of the reasons over 15 years ago they put me on their hate map (Bill Keller Ministries/Tampa, Fl/General Hate). Being on this map has made us a target of every deranged nutjob on the internet and has led to numerous dangerous incidents over the years.

The second warning from day one has been the rise of anti-Semitism in Europe and the United States like nothing we have seen since World War 2. Jewish people have been fleeing back to Israel from all around the world in the last decade as the invasion of radical Muslims primarily into Europe have put their very lives at risk.

The third warning I have been sharing is about the advancement of technology. From the internet in the late 90s, to the rise of advanced robotics in the 2010s, to the surge of Artificial Intelligence in the past 5 yrs. As I have shared, it is the rise of AI that looks to displace workers at all levels, requiring massive amounts of land and energy to run AI Data Centers, all designed to take over how daily life is conducted becoming dependent on technology over mankind. AI ultimately seeks to take the place of God!

Please take the time to watch the first 20 minutes of the Monday December 15th Livperayer TV program where I go in depth about these 3 critical issues I have been warning people around the world about the last 2 decades while most were silent!

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."

"Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fall." - (1 Corinthians 10:12)

THIS IS A SPECIAL WORD FOR YOU TODAY, OR FOR SOMEONE YOU LOVE, SOMEONE YOU KNOW!!!

You have a battle with alcohol and promise the Lord you will stop drinking, 12 days later you drink. You have a battle with prescription drugs and promise the Lord you will quit, 4 days later you take some more. You have a battle with pornography and vow to the Lord you won't look at porn any more, 17 days later you are looking at porn. You have a battle with your weight and tell the Lord no more sweets, 2 nights later you are sitting at your kitchen table eating a bag of candy bars. You have a battle with smoking and finally tell the Lord you won't smoke again, 24 days later you are having a cigarette.

What do you do when you decide once and for all to take a stand over whatever bondage you may be battling in your life, to start living in victory over that bondage, and then fall off the wagon???

When you fall off the wagon, you feel like a failure. You are consumed with guilt and shame. You can't believe after you did so good you fell. You are disgusted with yourself for being so weak. You know in your heart you not only let the Lord down, but broke your promise to Him. On top of all of those feelings and emotions, here comes your old buddy the devil to pour salt in the fresh wound.

He re-emphasizes what a failure you are, how you lied to Jesus and now He wants nothing to do with you, that whatever goes wrong in your life is God punishing you for falling, how the Bible is lie otherwise you would have been delivered from this bondage, that it is OK to give in to your carnal urges, God really doesn't expect you to be perfect, and oh yes the best of all, you aren't really saved or you wouldn't sin like that.

WOW, are you still with me or did you stop reading and delete this already? The fact is, EVERYONE needs to hang in there and get through this message today since EVERYONE has bondages that we fight throughout the course of our life. Just so you know, lying is as much of a bondage as drugs. Gossiping is as much of a bondage as homosexuality. Anger is as much of a bondage as alcohol. Being mean to people is as much of a bondage as pornography.

The fact is, we all have bondages in our life. Some people may not be fighting the more visible and popular bondages, but anything that is keeping you from being like Jesus and living in obedience to God's Word is a bondage!

Since we all fight different bondages during our life, it is critical to talk about what happens when we fall off the wagon or fail since that is part of the battle. Let me say right up front, when you fail it doesn't mean you don't love the Lord or aren't really saved, it simply means your flesh is weak.

Paul summed up this classic battle between our flesh and the Spirit in Romans 7 when he stated that, "He did the things he didn't want to do and didn't do the things he wanted to do." My friend, we are men and women of flesh and blood. Our flesh is weak. Failure is part of the human experience.

Does that make is OK to sin? OF COURSE NOT! Is it an excuse to sin? OF COURSE NOT! Does it mean we are doomed to failure? OF COURSE NOT! It simply means that in the course of battling with whatever bondage you may be dealing with, you may have a moment of weakness and fail God. What I want to do today is share with you how to respond to your failure. What do you do when you fall off the wagon?

The first thing you do is go to God and ask Him to forgive you. 1 John 1:9 tells us that if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us of all unrighteousness. After you go to God and confess your sins, asking Him to forgive you, the next step is to go back to living in victory over your bondage as you were before you fell.

It is the old adage of when you fall off a horse get right back on. Don't ever forget, you have an enemy that wants to see you fail, that takes delight when you fail. If you do fall off the wagon, ask the Lord's forgiveness and then get right back to living in victory and freedom over your bondage.

This is where your faith has to take over and becomes so important. You have to realize that even though your bondage is in the natural, what you are really fighting is a spiritual battle. While you need to have the practical day-to-day pieces in place to live in victory, things like being accountable to others, staying away from people, places, or things that could cause you to fall, working hard to keep from being in a position to be tempted, you also have to work on the spiritual aspects of walking in victory.

The Bible tells us that our battles are NOT against flesh and blood, but they are spiritual.

That is why we have to be praying every day, all throughout the day. We have to be in the Word of God every day, taking time to study and meditate on His Truth. We have to be part of a local church to be fed and grow spiritually, to have fellowship with other Believers, to serve the Lord. These are the basics we have to be doing to stay connected to the Lord each day and stay strong spiritually.

We already know our flesh is weak, so we can never lose sight that it is a constant daily battle to live in victory. We can never take for granted that we have won and are safe, since the second we stop doing the things necessary to keep our faith strong, that is when we will fall.

Today's anchor verse from 1 Corinthians is the key. We can never stop doing the things we must do to stay strong spiritually or we will fail God. I know in my own life as I have worked to overcome different bondages in my life, to try to become more like Jesus each day, when I am not praying as hard as I should, or when I am not reading and studying the Word like I should, or when I am not doing all the things to stay strong spiritually that I should, that is when I fail God.

When you stop doing all the things you need to do each day to stay strong spiritually, that is when you will fall off the wagon.

I love you and care about you so much. Everyone reading these words today knows what it is like to fight some bondage in your life, get victory for a period of time, then fail. That is part of life my friend. The Book of First John was written to Believers and tells us that if we say we don't sin then we are a liar.

God doesn't stop loving you or caring about you. His promises didn't change, they are still true. YOU ARE MORE THAN A CONQUEROR IN CHRIST JESUS! My word for you today is that when you are in the battle over some bondage in your life and fall off the wagon, go to God and tell Him you are sorry and then get back on that road to victory!

Don't waste precious time having a pity party and being discouraged. Don't sit there and listen to satan lie to you. Get back to doing the practical and spiritual things you need to do in your life each day and start enjoying the great feeling it is to live your life in obedience to God and His Word and in victory over those weaknesses in your life. God has much work for you to do, so the quicker you get back to walking on the road of victory, the quicker you can get back to fulfilling your purpose in this life which is to serve and glorify Him!

I will be praying for you today. Praying especially for those who have fallen off the wagon. God is a God of restoration and He wants to restore you today so that you can not only live in victory over your bondage, but know the peace and joy of your relationship with Him. We all wish we could go back and do things different in our life but that is not reality.

The reality is if you have fallen off the wagon it is time to get up, dust yourself off, and get back into that close, intimate daily walk with the Lord so that you are operating in His strength and not your own. In your strength it is only a matter of time before you fail. In His strength, you will not fail but live in VICTORY!!! AMEN!!!

In His love and service,

Your friend and co-laborer in His work,

Bill Keller
