Abraham’s Prayer

The Prayer Room Podcast

In this episode, we will experience and also learn about Father Abraham and his prayer for Sodom and Gomorrah. Abraham is known as one of the founding fathers of the nation of Israel, and we see throughout his life and ministry how the Lord makes Abraham a divine promise, which is known as the Abrahamic Covenant. This covenant afforded by God promised Abram a great land, a great nation, a great name, and a great blessing that will extend to Abraham and to every believer. Abraham’s faith and obedience to God caused him to leave his home and travel to an unknown land where God would use him to usher in a new nation of people, the children of Israel. However, Abraham’s life and ministry leads him to intercede for the righteous, so that God would rescue his nephew Lot from the most wicked, the most godless people and cities of all times, Sodom and Gomorrah, that’s where we pick up the prayer of Father Abraham. One of the founding fathers of the children of Israel, God’s chosen people as he prays one of the most gracious, and merciful prayers found in scripture, even in the midst of unimaginable human wickedness, even in the midst of God’s anger provoked by sin which ultimately leads to God’s divine retribution!
