1. Prayer is a form of serving God (Luke 2:36-38). We pray because God commands us to pray (Philippians 4:6-7). 2. Prayer is exemplified for us by Christ and the early church (Mark 1:35; Acts 1:14; 2:42; 3:1; 4:23-31; 6:4; 13:1-3). If Jesus thought it was worthwhile to pray, we should also. 3. God intends for prayer to be the means of obtaining His solutions in a number of situations: a. Preparation for major decisions (Luke 6:12-13). a. Overcoming demonic barriers in lives (Matthew 17:14-21). b. The gathering of workers for the spiritual harvest (Luke 10:2). c. The gaining of strength to overcome temptation (Matthew 26:41). d. The means of strengthening others spiritually (Ephesians 6:18-19). 4. We have God’s promise that our prayers are not in vain, even if we don’t receive specifically what we asked for (Matthew 6:6; Romans 8:26-27). 5. He has promised that when we ask for things that are in accordance with His will, He will give us what we ask for (1 John 5:14-15).

INSTRUCTIONS

From the Arcata Co-op Bakery
THis bread will not only nourish you, it will surprise you with its unique
and delightful flavor and texture. Definetly worth the extra effort of
finding the 9-grain mix ingredients. The mix will keep well in the
refrigerator - we're sure you'll want to make this bread again (try a
handful in pancakes!).
Mix the water, molasses, malt and yeast.  Add the 9 grain mix, flour, salt
and oil (you can also make a sponge and wait, but it's not necessary). Mix,
and knead dough well. Let rise, shape into loaves and let rise again in
oiled bread pans.  Bake at 350 F for 45 min.
