I am convinced that prayerlessness: 1. Is a sin against God (1 Sam. 12:23). 2. Is direct disobedience to the command of Christ (“watch and pray,” Mt. 26:41). 3. Is direct disobedience to the Word of God (“pray without ceasing,” 1 Thes. 5:17). 4. Makes me vulnerable to temptation (“watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation,” Mt. 26:41). 5. Expresses independence – no need for God. 6. Gives place to the Enemy and makes me vulnerable to his schemes (Eph. 6:10-20; Dan. 10). 7. Results in powerlessness. 8. Limits (and defines) my relationship with God. 9. Hinders me from knowing His will, His priorities, His direction. 10. Forces me to operate in the realm of the natural (what I can do) versus the supernatural (what He can do). 11. Leaves me weak, harried, and hassled. 12. Is rooted in pride, self-sufficiency, laziness, and lack of discipline. 13. Reveals a lack of real burden and compassion for others.

INSTRUCTIONS

First of all,  I want to let you know that I love cookin' on  the smoker,
but after many years I have modified my techniques (cheatin', if thats what
you want to call it).  You'll see below.
At room temperature rub down a slab of pork spare ribs with a thick mixture
of 3/4 garlic salt, 1/4 sage and 1 Tbls black pepper.  Let 'em set at room
temperature for 30 minutes.  Then rub again with above mix  and let stand
for 30 minutes. Place spare ribs on smoker, 190 degrees, with meat side up
for 1 hour then turn over for 1 hour. -- heavy white smoke. Take off smoker
and seal in foil then place in oven. Turn oven on to bake and 300 degrees.
When oven reaches 300 degrees turn temperature dial back to 200 degrees for
2 1/2 hours. (do not open door) (Ribs fallin' off the bone at this point,
you could eat'em with no BBQ sauce) Take ribs out of foil and return to
smoker with the meat side down and spread with BBQ sauce, wait till BBQ
sauce is sticky. Turn over and spread on more BBQ sauce.
When you think they look good -- eat 'em.... K
