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.

INSTRUCTIONS

Cream butter, sugar and extract. Sift flour once, and measure. Sift twice
more, adding baking powder and salt to last sift. Add eggs, one at a time,
to creamed mixture, alternating with flour, beating well after each
addition. This makes a stiff batter so will have to be beaten by hand
probably. Then add nuts, raisins and candied fruits which have been coated
with a little of the flour. Bake in a large round tube pan which has been
lined with brown paper and greased. Bake at 300 degrees for 2 hours or
until done when tested.
