"The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective." (Jas 5:16)

"For whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours." (Mk 11:24)

WithUsAlways, I believe your story. Your friend Sam had until his very last conscious thought to cry out to God for salvation. God heard your prayer (and Sam's cry) and reached out for him in the nick of time. Hallelujah!
