    based on 1 rating
     | 1,125 views

    In the midst of a serious storm, Jonah was blissfully asleep unaware of the predicament of his fellow passengers caused by his disobedience. Is it possible that the church too is asleep at a time when we have to wake up to fulfill the Great Commission that Jesus gave us?

    We read in Jonah 1:5, “And the mariners were afraid, and cried every one unto his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to be lightened of them. But Jonah had gone down into the lower part of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep.” (Darby) This is the ...read more

    Just as Jonah slept through the raging storm there were others in the Bible who also slept for various reasons. Today if the church does not wake up and continues to be in slumber of any sort, we will become easy targets of the evil one.

    We read in Jonah 1:5-6, And the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it unto them. But Jonah was gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep. So the shipmaster came to ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 613 views

    God’s call to the church today is that we be united just like the early church so we can experience the powerful working of the Holy Spirit of God. Our prayer to God must be that those who hinder this unity be removed and that we fulfill God’s will in our lives.

    We read in Jonah 1:7, Then the men said to each other, "We should throw lots to find out why this is happening to us." So the men threw lots.

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,074 views

    The life of Jonah teaches us that there is nothing we do is hidden from God. Also, we learn that as a church we must be certain of our identity and our purpose so we can glorify God through all we are and all we do.

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 26, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 701 views

    When Jonah revealed his true identity, the other seafarers must have been astounded. We as a church are called to let the world know that the God we believe and worship is the true and living God, creator of heaven and earth and let’s not miss the opportunity to do so.

    We read in Jonah 1:8, Then the men said to Jonah, "It is your fault that this terrible thing is happening to us. Tell us, what have you done? What is your job? Where do you come from? What is your country? Who are your people?" (ERV) The word of God came to Jonah to go to Nineveh, but ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 735 views

    Just as the biblical figure Jonah was summoned to the city of Nineveh to deliver a message of repentance, today's spiritual Nineveh represents a population that may lack understanding or awareness of moral and ethical principles.

    When the men on the ship realized that Jonah was the cause for their serious predicament they asked him, ‘Why have you done this?’ May we as children of God not do anything that will dishonor God and be a hindrance to those outside the church.

    based on 1 rating

    based on 1 rating

    Jonah’s disobedience became a hindrance the entire crew of unbelievers aboard that ship. This is a caution to us that as believers we should walk in total obedience to God and not become a stumbling block to those outside the church.

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 16, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 750 views

    While Jonah the prophet of God thought of no one but himself, the mariners who were unbelievers were so concerned about him. The church needs to be filled with those who have compassion for the lost, who depend on entirely on the Lord and lead many into His Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 1:11-14, The storm was getting worse all the time, so the sailors asked him, “What should we do to you to stop the storm?” Jonah answered, “Throw me into the sea, and it will calm down. I know it is my fault that you are caught in this violent storm.” Instead, the sailors tried to ...read more

  • Route To Great Awakening

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 952 views

    We can go on living as though this world were everything, and there is no eternal world or great God to whom we are accountable. But when Christ returns will each one of us account for your life with joy?

    Opening illustration: God awakened me when I went to work in the Middle East. Till then I was just a lukewarm and laidback Christian. I saw the great need for the Gospel of Christ to be proclaimed to the so many lost souls there. They had no idea that they were perishing and there was only one way ...read more
