The 18th chapter of Genesis is divided between two seemingly disconnected events that both happen on the same day. At first glance the only similarity is that they are both connected to the same heavenly visitation.
· Verses 1-15, “deals with the heavenly visitation as connected with Sarah”
· Verses 16-33, “deals with Abraham’s intercession for Sodom”
They reveal to us the key to prayer! Prayer is first and foremost to change WHO is praying and NOT about changing the circumstances we are facing. There are always two areas that God seeks to change in my prayer life found here in these two divisions of chapter 18:
Vs. 1-15 The Lord is constantly getting me to change my heart about Him.
Vs. 16-33 The Lord is constantly changing my heart about others.
