Genesis 19:4-5 “But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.”

Lot apparently didn’t realize the power that lay within the grasp of the angels that lodged with him.

The very power of Almighty God, the God who would destroy the city on the morrow was at their disposal if they would but call.

We can confirm this in the next few verses, as the angels afflict the men with blindness.

Isn’t this often like us? God’s power lay within our own homes, not in angels, but His word, yet when the enemy surrounds we instead resort to sin.

Lot makes this terrible choice just three verses later. It is not so unlike the choices we may make if we forget God.

Genesis 19:4-5 “But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter: And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.”
