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.
Remember, it is not your weakness that will get in the way of God’s working through you, but your delusions of strength. His strength is made perfect in our weakness! Point to His strength by being willing to admit your weakness.
Cream butter and shortening; gradually add 1 1/2 cups sugar beating until
mixture is light and fluffy. Add egg yolks; beat on high speed of electric
mixer for five minutes.
Combine flour, salt, and soda; mix well. Add to creamed mixture alternately
with sour cream, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix until just
blended after each mixture. Stir in vanilla, 1 1/3 cups chocolate morsels,
and grated chocolate.
Beat egg whites (at room temp) until foamy. Gradually add remaing 1/2 cup
suger, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Fold egg
whites into batter. Spoon batter into a greased and floured 10 inch tube
pan. Bake at 325 for 1hour and 20-25 minutes. Cool cake 10 minutes in pan;
invert onto a serving plate.
Combine powdered sugar* and 1 tablespoon milk*; stirring well. Add more
milk if a thinner consistancy is desired. Spoon glaze over warm cake.
Sprinkle remaining chocolate morsels evenly over glaze. Cool before
serving.***
NOTES : * I doubled this. ** I used 1 2/3 cups and only saved 1/3 cup for
topping. ***My Hubby couldn't wait for it to cool and loved it warm.
