Bible Reference: Genesis 18:16-32
Day 44 | Prayer Partner - Partnering through Prayer
Genesis 18:22-23
The men turned from there and went toward Sodom while Abraham remained standing before the LORD. 23 Abraham stepped forward and said, “Will you really sweep away the righteous with the wicked?
As God shares about what He wants to do with Sodom and Gomorrah, Abraham intercepts and intercedes for the people of Sodom and Gomorrah. God wants us to be His prayer partners. In fact, the Bible is filled with calls for us to pray:
“God invites you to participate in what He is doing around the world – and it begins with prayer.”
Philippians 4:6
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.
Ephesians 6:18
Pray at all times in the Spirit with every prayer and request, and stay alert with all perseverance and intercession for all the saints.
James 5:13-14
Are any of you suffering hardships? You should pray. Are any of you happy? You should sing praises. Are any of you sick? You should call for the elders of the church to come and pray over you, anointing you with oil in the name of the Lord.
1 Timothy 2:1-4
I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them. Pray this way for kings and all who are in authority so that we can live peaceful and quiet lives marked by godliness and dignity. This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth.
How does your prayer life with Jesus look like? God invites you to participate in what He is doing around the world – and it begins with prayer.
