God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
When I pray for revival I pray first for the most radical thing: The utter devotion and allegiance of your hearts to Christ. That you would love Him so deeply and long for Him so passionately that His coming would be your great hope, and death would be gain, and life would be for Christ and His kingdom.
Sometimes people are careless and speak disparagingly of all human righteousness, as if there were no such thing that pleased God. They often cite Isaiah 64:6 which says our righteousness is as filthy rags. It is true – gloriously true – that none of God’s people, before or after the cross, would be accepted by an immaculately holy God if the perfect righteousness of Christ were not imputed to us (Romans 5:19; 1 Corinthians 1:30; 2 Corinthians 5:21). But that does not mean that God does not produce in those “justified” people (before and after the cross) an experiential righteousness that is not “filthy rags.” In fact, He does; and this righteousness is precious to God and is required, not as the ground of our justification (which is the righteousness of Christ only), but as an evidence of our being truly justified children of God.
Saute the onion, peppers, hot peppers, and garlic until the onions are
translucent. Add all other ingrediants and simmer a minimum of 30 minutes
(about how long corn bread takes to cook ;-). Add water if chili is too
thick. Adjust seasonings during cooking to taste.
That's it! Last night's batch had TVP, 1 can pinto beans, 2 cans kidney
beans, 1 can black eye peas, so I used double the spices and the higher
amounts of the rest of the ingrediants. Very tasty last night and of
course even better today for lunch.
