I wonder what would happen if...

... Christians decided to turn off their television sets on Wednesday evening for 60 minutes, and pray.
There is an interesting story in Genesis 18:16-30. God was fed up with Sodom and had decided to judge the sin of its people. But Abraham cared about at least some of those people, because Lot, his nephew, lived there.

So Abraham prayed. And in his prayer for Lot and Sodom, he asked God how many righteous people in Sodom might cause Him to forego His judgement.

"50?" asked Abraham. "I won't destroy Sodom if there are 50 righteous there," said the Lord.

"45?" "Nope. Not if there are 45."

"40?"

"30?"

"20?"

"10?"

God would have stayed His judgement if there were but 10 believers present there.

What would God do in Randolph if 50 people turned off their TV sets tonight and came to prayer meeting and prayed? What about if 45 came? 30? 20? Even 10?

Prayer meetings occur every Wednesday evening from 6:30-7:30. Join us!

Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart... (Luke 18:1 NKJV)
