Keith Daniel

Keith Daniel (1946 - 2021). South African evangelist and Bible teacher born in Cape Town to Jack, a businessman and World War II veteran, and Maud. Raised in a troubled home marked by his father’s alcoholism, he ran away as a teen, facing family strife until his brother Dudley’s conversion in the 1960s sparked his own at 20. Called to ministry soon after, he studied at Glenvar Bible College, memorizing vast Scripture passages, a hallmark of his preaching. Joining the African Evangelistic Band, he traveled across South Africa, Namibia, Zimbabwe, and made over 20 North American tours, speaking at churches, schools, and IBLP Family Conferences. Daniel’s sermons, like his recitation of the Sermon on the Mount, emphasized holiness, repentance, and Scripture’s authority. Married to Jenny le Roux in 1978, a godly woman 12 years his junior, they had children, including Roy, and ministered together. He authored no books but recorded 200 video sermons, now shared online. His uncompromising style, blending conviction and empathy, influenced thousands globally.

Sermon Transcription
...religion, but they needed an encounter with Christ and then, but oh the fruit there, the fruit of these godly men that bring me over, that have any love for this type of preaching, or place for it. I just see God raising up the examples of the believers under these godly men like Bill Goffert. These generations of young people who never went to a school, they were protected from the defilement of the government schools these days. The moral decadence from those who don't come from the home of God. Now you see these godly, godly people and their thousands and thousands raising up with pure faces and purity and nobleness and integrity in spite of the decadence of the world. You honour men like that, you pray for them. And they'll be bringing me over, my family. Will you pray for me if God spares me? This could be my last sermon. I don't mind, dear Lord, I don't mind. Thy will not mine. But if he spares me and you, pray for me. I know I'm nothing. Don't doubt that in case you think my sharing these things tonight thinks I'm something. I'm nothing. God took thirty something years before I dared to say how he honoured the word. Just pray for this man, that God spares him, that God keeps him true to the word and in his life. My family may never be destroyed by the devil because I leave them alone most of their lives. They didn't have a daddy. And I wouldn't have done that for a million dollars. But I will do it for Jesus and his calling and for souls. For that reason I come back to your land. Will you pray for this poor man who has no right to come here with anything but Jesus Christ and his book that God gave us. So pray for me that as I come back, God will use this poor, weak, base, despised man. In case you think it's not true, just wait, God will show you that's just what I am. Somewhere along the line. Don't make anything of men, okay? I always think if people ever talk about this man, I fail God. Do me a favour, if God met you, do me a great favour, a great honour. Just speak about Jesus. Then God won't have to throw me in the dust. Brother, commit us to Christ. Don't forget if you want to receive a newsletter, you give a little piece of paper to this dear brother and you bring it home. Yes, we are. Pray, you're only a prayer away. You're praying on the other side of the communication. So pray. And I know God will honour your prayers and protect you. Now our dear brother is going to commit us to Christ. We're going to go to prayer in our homes. Go home tomorrow. God take you safely. If you never miss the quiet time, ever, until God says now you can go, then you have the right to stop the quiet time. If you never miss the quiet time, you will never backslide. The devil cannot touch the man who never misses God in the morning and the night. He cannot touch the man who tries, he can't. But he'll wipe you out if you miss God. He'll wipe out your testament anyway. Not your soul. Brother, you pray now for us, please. I'm going to be at the door. I might shake one or two hands, but forgive me going now. And thank you for coming all this way. And if I come back and I meet you again, I'll be very grateful. God bless you as you pray. God bless you, Keith. We love you. Oh, Father, you have sent a man of God our way. And you have spoke your words, he's the man, the message is in the man. And Lord, if we would look at our lives and see, has there been enough of the power of the Holy Spirit in our life to convict our own sons and daughters about their need of Jesus? Maybe the way that they are, they're in rebellion, they're unsaved, is because there's been hypocrisy in our own life. Maybe we've been unwilling, Father, to face up to the fact that the life that has been lived has not been our life in honesty, in truth, but it's been our life in pride and hypocrisy. And it's not been the Holy Spirit there. Oh, let your Word burn tonight. And Father, our commitment as we've stood, those that stood tonight to do this, is no deeper than our real love for you. And as this man goes on down the road, we ask for a special watching over him. Father, have mercy upon him and his family. Provide for their needs. I know he's bared his heart to us today. And God, may we support him in prayer. And if you bless some of us to have funds to stick with this family. And now, Father, I pray for your blessing on each one here. And that as they take these cassette tapes that are being offered free and the videos back to continue to spread the Word, he spoke the truth. We're in the balances, our land, Father. We deserve to be wiped out right now. Have mercy upon us. And we pray that you'd use us, as unworthy as we are, to go out tonight saying, God, my life, take it. Make it count for you. Take out of my heart this love of the world, the pleasure, and all this vanity. And take me to my knees to spend more time in prayer. To be more concerned for the lost, my neighbors, Lord. I haven't told them about Jesus. Whatever the area you're doing your work in tonight, I pray, Father, that you'd continue on. That you'd really start a revival in my heart and our hearts. And bless this man. And bless his family. Thank you for sending him to us. Watch over us now as we go home. Back to our ways. We thank you in Jesus' name. Amen. God bless you. You're dismissed. There's restrooms over there on the next building. If you need help, you need to pray, you come on up. There are men here and women.
