Power of Prayer - A Series By Allana Austin  One: Abraham’s Prayer For Sodom Genesis 18:16-33 A Profile of Abraham Today when our guests depart, we may end the visit by walking them to the door or to the car, and we wish them a safe journey.

Abraham was no exception to this custom, as his heavenly guests departed, they travelled and talked for some distance.
