Pray that our nations may not become like Sodom and Gommorah.

In Genesis chapters 18 and 19, the people of Sodom were so wicked that God could no longer tolerate them. He destroyed the city of Sodom by raining fire and brimstone down upon it. The prominent sin that earmarked the city of Sodom was homosexuality. As a result, the sin of homosexuality became known as sodomy, which is still true to this very day.

What was the sin for Sodom and Gomorrah?

It can be seen in Jude 1:7

Jude 1:7 And don't forget Sodom and Gomorrah and their neighboring towns, which were filled with immorality and every kind of sexual perversion. Those cities were destroyed by fire and serve as a warning of the eternal fire of God's judgment.

The sexual sins that are an abomination to the Lord, for which Sodom and Gomorrah was destroyed can be seen in Leviticus 18. They include.

1) Homosexuality.
2) Incest.
3) Sexual relations with animal.
4) Child sacrifice to demons.
5) Any unlawful sexual relations outside of marriage.


God specifically warns what will happen of the nations that practice it(It shall vomit out its inhabitants) in Leviticus 18:24-29

“‘Do not defile yourselves in any of these ways, because this is how the nations that I am going to drive out before you became defiled. 25 Even the land was defiled; so I punished it for its sin, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. 26 But you must keep my decrees and my laws. The native-born and the foreigners residing among you must not do any of these detestable things, 27 for all these things were done by the people who lived in the land before you, and the land became defiled. 28 And if you defile the land, it will vomit you out as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
29 Everyone who does any of these detestable things—such persons must be cut off from their people. 30 Keep my requirements and do not follow any of the detestable customs that were practiced before you came and do not defile yourselves with them. I am the Lord your God.’”


God's condemnation of homosexuality is abundantly clear--He opposes it in every age.

- In the patriarchs (Genesis 19:1-28)

- In the Law of Moses (Leviticus 18:22; 20:13)


- In the Prophets (Ezekiel 16:46-50)

- In the New Testament (Romans 1:18-27; 1 Corinthians 6:9-10; Jude 7-8)

Why does God condemn homosexuality? Because it overturns God's fundamental design for human relationships--a design that pictures the complementary relationship between a man and a woman (Genesis 2:18-25; Matthew 19:4-6; Ephesians 5:22-33).

There are unjust judges in ancient as well as in modern times, who frame laws against God, favouring sexual immorality. The judgement of these judges are given in Isaiah 10:1-4

 

Isaiah 10:1-4: Woe to those who enact evil statutes And to those who constantly record [a]unjust decisions, 2 So as to [b]deprive the needy of justice  And rob the poor of My people of their rights,
So that widows may be their spoil And that they may plunder the [c]orphans.
3 Now what will you do in the day of punishment, And in the devastation which will come from afar?
To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your [d]wealth?
4 Nothing remains but to crouch [e]among the captives Or fall [f]among the slain.
In spite of all this, His anger does not turn away And His hand is still stretched out.
We are to pray constantly for the nation that has fallen into sin, so that it may not face the judgment of Sodom and Gomorrah and is not vomited out. In prayer we have to bind all the forces that are against the nation, and the unjust judges.

James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.

Matthew 18:18 "Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven.

Joshua march through the nations


fall_of_the_jericho_s_wall
Are you planning a Joshua march through the world/your country/your city/your village/ your locality/ your workplace, to bring down walls of hostility against the Word of God.
Hebrews 11:30
King James Version (KJV)
30 By faith the walls of Jericho fell down, after they were compassed about seven days.
The Story of the fall of Jericho's wall when Joshua along with the Israelites marched around it for 7 days, for entering the Promised Land is given in the Book of Joshua chapter 6.
Joshua 6:1-5
King James Version (KJV)
6 Now Jericho was straitly shut up because of the children of Israel: none went out, and none came in.
2 And the Lord said unto Joshua, See, I have given into thine hand Jericho, and the king thereof, and the mighty men of valour.
3 And ye shall compass the city, all ye men of war, and go round about the city once. Thus shalt thou do six days.
4 And seven priests shall bear before the ark seven trumpets of rams' horns: and the seventh day ye shall compass the city seven times, and the priests shall blow with the trumpets.
5 And it shall come to pass, that when they make a long blast with the ram's horn, and when ye hear the sound of the trumpet, all the people shall shout with a great shout; and the wall of the city shall fall down flat, and the people shall ascend up every man straight before him.
Let us plan to have a march of Joshua(relying only on God, not in our own strength), through the nations for 6 days one time through each of the nations(you may start at any day), in silence through prayer, and in the 7th day, 7 times , through each of the nations, Proclaiming what God has revealed to us, at the end of it ,and  to ask God to pull down walls of hostility, towards the Word of God, and his people through the nations.
We can have this common prayer for the nations.
1 Timothy 2:1-4
King James Version (KJV)
2 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;
2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
Acts 26:18
King James Version (KJV)
18 To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me.
Revelation 21:23-24
King James Version (KJV)
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.
The nations through which the march will  go through(starting from Egypt, and ending in Israel) is given below, add countries if you think it is in need of the saving power of God.

That the people of Egypt speak the language in Canaan and an altar of the Lord be established in the midst of Egypt.
Isaiah 19:18 In that day shall five cities in the land of Egypt speak the language of Canaan, and swear to the Lord of hosts; one shall be called, The city of destruction.
Isaiah 19:19 In that day shall there be an altar to the Lord in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at the border thereof to the Lord.
That the  the Lord send them a saviour.
Isaiah 19:20 And it shall be for a sign and for a witness unto the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt: for they shall cry unto the Lord because of the oppressors, and he shall send them a saviour, and a great one, and he shall deliver them.
Isaiah 19:21 And the Lord shall be known to Egypt, and the Egyptians shall know the Lord in that day, and shall do sacrifice and oblation; yea, they shall vow a vow unto the Lord, and perform it.
Isaiah 19:22 And the Lord shall smite Egypt: he shall smite and heal it: and they shall return even to the Lord, and he shall be intreated of them, and shall heal them.
That a highway be built from Egypt to Assyria.
