TO INTERCEDE

I READ: Genesis 18:20-33

When Abraham found out that Sodom and Gomorrah were going to be punished because of all of the sins committed and because the people did not know the Lord, he started to intercede for Sodom. Abraham prayed and stood in the gap between the Lord and that city.  He bargained with God so that the city could be saved from punishment. Without ceasing, he prayed continuously. Even though in the end the city was punished because God could not find the number of righteous people Abraham had bargained for, Lot’s family (Abraham’s nephew) was saved because of Abraham’s prayers. The Lord ordered his angel to save Lot’s family and to bring them out of the city. When we intercede for souls, God will answer and save them.

I DECLARE: 1 Thessalonians 5:17 – Pray without ceasing

I DO: What actions am I going to take after meditating on the Word of God?

I PRAY:Pray as guided by the Holy Spirit
