Reference for Taanit 3:11

ומנא לן דבתפלה דתניא (דברים יא, יג) לאהבה את ה' אלהיכם ולעבדו בכל לבבכם איזו היא עבודה שהיא בלב הוי אומר זו תפלה וכתיב בתריה (דברים יא, יד) ונתתי מטר ארצכם בעתו יורה ומלקוש

But let him teach: When do we [begin] to make mention of Rain: why, the Power of Rain? -R'Johanan said: Because Rain comes down by the Power [of God], as it is said, Who doeth great things und unsearchable, marvellous things without number.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Job V, 9-10.
