God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Have you noticed how much praying for revival has been going on of late – and how little revival has resulted? I believe the problem is that we have been trying to substitute praying for obeying, and it simply will not work. To pray for revival while ignoring the plain precept laid down in Scripture is to waste a lot of words and get nothing for our trouble. Prayer will become effective when we stop using it as a substitute for obedience.

1 Timothy 4:7b-8, “Discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness; for bodily discipline is only of little profit, but godliness is profitable for all things, since it holds promise for the present life and also for the life to come.” Clearly the Bible is placing the predominate value on inner godliness and while inner godliness is “profitable for all things,” the verse does still affirm that “bodily discipline” has some “profit.” Yes, there is a call for priorities and balance between the body and the soul. But the Bible does not demand that we ignore the body altogether, actually, quite the contrary.

INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 ts Vegetable oil (I use olive)
4 c Chopped onion
3/4 c Diced celery
3/4 c EACH diced red and green bell peppers
1/4 c Flour
9 1/2 c Chicken stock
6 1/2 c Peeled, cubed potatoes
2 1/2 ts Dry mustard
1/2 ts Dry marjoram (I used 2 tsp fresh, chopped)
1/8 ts White pepper
4 c Frozen corn
1 c Coarsely chopped cheddar cheese
1 4 oz. can green chilies (I used 4 roasted, fresh)
3/4 ts Tabasco (I used chipotle sauce instead)
Salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS

In large pot heat oil over medium heat. Add onions, celery, carrot and
peppers. Cook, uncovered, stirring frequently until onions are soft. Stir
in flour and cook 1 minute. Gradually stir in stock, potatoes, mustard,
marjoram, and white pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring. Reduce to low, cover
and simmer for 10 minutes. Stir in corn and simmer until corn and potatoes
are tender. Transfer 2 cups of soup to a blender and add 1/2 cup of cheese.
Puree until smooth. Pour into a bowl. Repeat with remaining soup and
cheese. Return puree to pot along with the green chilies. Heat until hot,
but do not boil. Adjust seasonings, add hot sauce, salt and pepper to
taste.
Notes: I garnished this with cilantro. If you do freeze it, make sure you
taste and adjust the salt and pepper. It seemed to need salt after being
frozen.
