23 The Obedient Prophet Series
Contributed by Michael Collins on Jan 25, 2021 (message contributor)
Summary: This devotion is about Jonah's obedience to God's 2nd call to him to go and preach against the people of Ninveveh. This is the 23rd of 31 devotions on the book of Jonah, where a comparison is made between Jonah and The Church-at-large, in the light of the present global pandemic.
We need to take this message of Salvation through faith in Jesus to the world and then to help disciple them into this new life. If we as individuals have rebelled against the call of God to take His word to the world, let’s not waste another moment and get going with accomplishing God’s commission for our lives. If, on the contrary, we have been busy fulfilling the great commission consistently, then let’s continue to do so, and not give up, knowing that our labour in the Lord is not in vain.
Let’s be led by the Spirit of God – there’s no better life than being led by God’s Holy Spirit. He knows the hearts and minds of the people He would have us serve, He knows what He wants each one of us to do, He’s given us the spiritual gifts to accomplish what He will have us accomplish and He gives us the power to do it as well. We need just listen and follow implicitly and we will see the results God desires to see. It’s not about what we want to see happen through us, but it’s really what God desires to see happen through us that matters.
God bless you and have a great day or night.
