    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 10, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 469 views

    God sent the hot east wind to rebuke the prophet Jonah. If we want to avoid the hot east wind from blowing over our lives we must set aside pride and disobedience and live in humility and obedience to the sovereign Lord.

So he wished he were dead. "I am better off dead than alive," he said.” (GNB) Jonah was a prophet of God who preached ...read more

However, a mature, faith-filled person recognizes that participating in contentious discussions will not end the matter. With the knowledge of God and the wisdom of the Lord, we understand that calmer ...read more
