DAILY DEVOTIONAL TUESDAY MAY 30, 2006
( 1 Thessalonians 4:3, Romans 1:18-32, 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 )
***FRONT PAGE OF SUNDAY'S MIAMI HERALD! Alexandra Alter, the Religion
Editor
for the Miami Herald recently visited Liveprayer and spent an afternoon
with
me and was my guest at the TV program that evening. She wrote a wonderful
feature article that made the front page of Sunday's Miami Herald. Here is
a
link to the story: http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/14686233.htm
Alexandra's email address is at the top of the story and if you are led,
drop her a note of encouragement for helping get the word out about
Liveprayer. Also, my head tech created a humorous billboard from the last
quote in the story: www.liveprayer.com/danny.cfm
***JUNE...A MONTH OF PRAYER AND FASTING! I am asking everyone in the
Liveprayer family to make and take time each day in June to pray for me,
for
Liveprayer, for everyone who works with us in any capacity, for our
advertisers, and most of all for the millions of souls we will be reaching
when the TV program goes nationwide on July 3rd. In addition to praying
each day, as the Holy Spirit leads you please fast during the month and
spend that time of fasting praying for the lost souls we will reach to
open
their hearts to Christ's love. May the Lord guide us and lead us each day
as we bring His Truth and the hope and love of Jesus to the lost and
hurting
throughout our nation.

met. Thank you for standing with me as we boldly and without shame bring
Biblical Truth and the hope of Jesus to this lost and hurting world!!!
Taking the offensive with the TRUTH. I have stated often that the only way
a lie works is when it goes unchallenged. Today through Sunday, June 4 is
"Gay Days" in Orlando, Florida. "Gay Days" is a week-long celebration of
special events at all of the high-profile Orlando area attractions geared
towards tens of thousands of people who choose to commit the sin of
homo***uality who will be coming from all over the world . Of course, the
most famous Orlando area attraction is Disneyworld which on Saturday, June
3
will open their gates and welcome men and women who proudly and, without
shame, sin against God in this way. Disneyworld, which promotes itself as
a
family-friendly entertainment mecca, will once again thumb their nose at
families and the children they claim to care about, selling out for the
few
dollars they can make by catering to a group of people who openly display
their deviant ***uality.
People ask me all the time how an "event" like this could take place, how
that is possible. Simple. The LIE has been told long enough and loud
enough
that enough people have believed it to be the truth. Those who possess the
real Truth of God's Word have said nothing or very little while the lie
has
been told over and over, year after year, now generation after generation,
until it has been ingrained in our culture as a perfectly acceptable
choice.
That is why you now have states that actually have legalized men marrying
men and women marrying women, as well as same-*** couples adopting
children.
That is why in over 3,000 SCHOOLS you have "gay clubs" that promote the
sin
of homo***uality to our children. That is why you have a 24-hour Gay cable
television network, tons of pro-gay magazines and newspapers, an entire
subculture that actually caters specifically to people who choose to sin
against God in this way.
So what is the answer? TELLING THE TRUTH! My friend, the lie will always
lose when matched along side the Truth! The only way a lie stands is when
the Truth is missing. That is why those who sell this lie are FURIOUS when
someone like me has the audacity to go on secular network television
stations and expose their lies. Nobody is "born gay," it is a CHOICE! You
are born with white or black skin, you are born with blue or green eyes,
taking off your pants to have *** is a CHOICE! Also, it is not 1 out of 10
who choose this type of deviant ***ual sin, it is less than 1 out of 100
who
will EVER make the choice to sin in this way. Again, the only way a lie
stands is when the Truth is missing!!!
Whether you understand it or not, YOUR children are being targeted by the
pro-homo***ual community to indoctrinate them almost from birth that this
choice of ***ual relation****p is normal, acceptable, and desirable. They
have done this with virtually no opposition through infiltrating the
school
curriculum with pro-homo***ual material, they have done this through the
3,000+ "gay clubs" in schools all over the nation, and they have
masterfully
used the media (TV, movies, Internet, music) to day after day after day
tell
the world there is nothing wrong with this choice of ***uality. Again, the
only way a lie stands is when the Truth is missing!
It is very disturbing to hear a 14-year-old boy, a 15-year-old girl
claiming
to be gay or lesbian. When pressed if they were actually having *** they
usually say no. The fact is, a 14-year-old boy or a 15-year-old girl are
no
more gay or lesbian than I am a giraffe! Just because I call myself a
giraffe doesn't make me one. They have simply bought into the "gay lie"
that is being promoted by the pro-homo***ual community and told loud
enough,
often enough in our society that these CHILDREN have this warped idea they
are something other than how God created them. GOD DID NOT CREATE MEN TO
HAVE *** WITH MEN, OR WOMEN TO HAVE *** WITH WOMEN! Those who do are
committing unnatural acts in complete rebellion to God.
My heart was encouraged to hear of the recent move by groups of men and
women who have found freedom from the bondage of homo***uality and are now
going on the offensive. They are demanding and fighting legally for equal
time in schools to tell kids that homo***uality is a dangerous, harmful,
and
often deadly choice to make. They have simply asked for equal time to tell
the truth of this sin to the same students who are being told the lie by
the
pro-homo***ual groups. Praise God! Pray for them and their efforts as they
do exactly what I am talking aobut today, fighting the lie with the Truth!
Sin is sin in God's eyes. No sin is greater than another. The sin of
homo***uality is no more, or no less a sin than murder, adultery,
stealing,
lying, gossiping, or gluttony. I get asked often if that is the case, then
why do I deal with this issue several times each year. The reason this sin
is being singled out and addressed more than others is because those who
commit it are proud of their sin and promote it as an acceptable
lifestyle!
People who commit adultery do NOT have parades to celebrate their sin.
People who commit murder do NOT have political action committees to make
murder legal and socially acceptable. People who steal do not have high
school clubs and try to teach children that stealing is acceptable
behavior.
Homo***uality is a SIN in the eyes of God and is something to be ashamed
of,
NOT proud of.
Theologically this is not even a debatable issue. All through the Bible,
from the Old Testament through the New, homo***uality is defined by God as
a
sin, PERIOD. God calls it an ABOMINATION! I have heard the tortured
theological arguments homo***uals have made, but there is absolutely NO
WAY
to change the fact this act is a sin. Just because there is now a
homo***ual version of the Bible where they have literally changed the
passages that call this act a sin, that does NOT change God's inspired,
inerrant Word.
Of course, anyone who dares to speak up on this issue is labeled as
"intolerant" and a "homophobe." This is an attempt to make people shut up
and keep the Truth from being told. Sadly, we find it easier to keep our
mouths shut than to speak out. We don't want the grief that comes with
speaking out. We don't want to be attacked for speaking out. Those who
call this sin what it is are labeled as "close minded" and "ignorant" by
people who are engaging in totally unnatural and unhealthy ***ual acts.
You
don't need to get past page 1 of any basic *** education book to figure
out
that two men don't go together nor do two women. Yet, those who engage in
these unnatural acts call those who point this FACT out "ignorant!"
I love you and care about you so much. Now is the time for those who know
Jesus as their Savoir, who possess the Truth of God's Word to go on the
offensive and become brave and bold enough to bring God's Truth to the
lost
and hurting in our world today. We cannot sit back in silence while the
lie
of homo***uality is told over and over unchallenged. We have done that for
too long, it is time to speak up. The truth is that homo***uality is a
sin.
Like any sin, those who are involved in homo***uality need to find God's
love and strength to turn from their sin and live in freedom.
God doesn't stop loving a person just because they commit the sin of
homo***uality. He simply wants them to turn from their sin and follow Him.
As those who know the Lord, we also have a responsibility to pray for
those
who are in this bondage. Only God can change hearts, and for those who are
in bondage to the sin of homo***uality we must pray for them to open their
hearts and turn from their sin. Until Jesus returns, we will always have
those who choose a perverted form of *** with those of their own gender,
just like we will always have those who choose to pervert *** by having it
outside of the bonds of marriage. While we can never accept their choice
since it is clearly against God's Word, we must pray for them and love
them
enough to tell them the Truth.
For those reading this who are currently fighting homo***uality, let me
tell
you that God has never stopped loving you, and is simply waiting for you
to
turn from your sin and come back to Him. We serve a God of deliverance
from
sin, a God of forgiveness, and a God of restoration. Millions have turned
from the sin of homo***uality and found complete restoration and
fulfillment
in living a life according to God's plan. What He did for someone else, He
can do for you! I pray that you hear these words and choose to find
freedom
from your sin today. It is the TRUTH that will set you free!!!
In His love and service,
Your friend and brother in Christ,
Bill Keller
