Jonah is an amazing story and full of life lessons for every generation. I have been Jonah and it is safe to say we all have been him at least one time in our life. Doing what God calls us to do has never been easy , look at Moses or any of the examples we have.
There are many messages just in chapter 1 but you know I will focus on the nature. God knew what Jonah would do , God had already prepared a great fish.
Jonah had lost touch with Who God was so much he thought he could hide from Him. It would be winds, waves and a big fish that reminded Him.
Jonah knew why the seas became rough, he knew Who controlled the winds and waves. God has always used His creations for His purpose.
Job 37:13He causeth it to come, whether for correction, or for his land, or for mercy.
We are in a sea of Jonah's forgetting what the sea, wind and fish where created for...
Jonah 1:16Then the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the Lord , and made vows.
This boat had a good crew but they did not know God they had little gods, there is only One God that controls nature. He has shown us from page 1 to the last page.
Luke 8:25
And he said unto them, Where is your faith? And they being afraid wondered, saying one to another, What manner of man is this! for he commandeth even the winds and water, and they obey him.
These men come to know God from all this , people come to know Jesus at the Cross for the same reason.
Matthew 27:54
Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
When we are in a storm maybe we should stop as these men did and ask if there is a Jonah among us and then call on Him as they did. Thank You Lord for this story today...
