Gen. 18:24-25
"Then Abraham approached Him and said, 'Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked? What if there are 50 righteous people in the city?'"
Perhaps the most remarkable thing about this passage is not Abraham's boldness to ask such confrontational questions of God, but God's positive response to these questions. Nowhere in the history of any religion do we find such a camaraderie between the Creator God and man as we do in this account. God literally says, "I cannot hide from Abraham what I am going to do" (Gen. 18:17), and then allows His friend to question Him on His actions. The precedent God is establishing here is clear. The Abrahamic Covenant of blessing involves prophetic intercession for the nations. God reveals to His people what He is going to do in the world and invites us to participate in His actions as priestly intercessors!!
Pray that every believer might discover the power and joy of frontier mission intercession.
