    Sermon # 47 - Avoid The Hot East Wind Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 10, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 483 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.

    Our meditation is based on Jonah 4:8, “After the sun had risen, God sent a hot east wind, and Jonah was about to faint from the heat of the sun beating down on his head. 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

    Sermon # 48 - No Room For Rebellion Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 12, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 522 views

    Jonah’s heart was hard and right to the end he was not willing to accept God’s forgiveness and compassion that was extended to the people of Nineveh. Rebellion against God is sin and if there is such a sin in our lives, may we set it aside and walk in obedience to the Holy Spirit.

    Today’s meditation is taken from Jonah 4:9, “But God said to him, "What right do you have to be angry about the plant?" Jonah replied, "I have every right to be angry—angry enough to die!"” (GNB) God spoke to Jonah who was annoyed and angry, and asked him if it was right on his ...read more

    Sermon # 50 - Which Side Are You On? Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 19, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 570 views

    As Jonah fretted and fumed that God withheld His judgement on the people of Nineveh, God saw a people who were ignorant and could not decipher between right and wrong. God calls the church to disciple their members, and grow them in maturity so all will be found in God’s eternal Kingdom.

    Let us thank the Lord for the many lessons we learnt from the life of Jonah. We have come to the final part of this study. When I began this series, I did not expect that it would be such a long one, and I am grateful to the Lord for all that we have learned in this process, and all glory to God ...read more

    The God Of Jonah

    The story of Jonah is so exciting that some people believe it is no more than a fairy tale filled with exaggerations.

    When it comes to exaggeration, we are reminded of the story of the little boy who was known for his problem with exaggeration. He came home from school one day and said, "Mom, I saw a dog as big as an elephant." The mother said, "Johnny, haven't I told you a billion times not ...read more

    There are enemies who are within the camp of God and pretend to be serving Christ, yet they are deceivers who have been sent by the devil to abuse the flock. In this sermon we will focus on how to identify whether a person has been sent by God or by the devil.

    In the previous chapter we learnt that there are some enemies who are within the camp of God and pretend to be serving Christ, yet they are deceivers who have been sent by the devil to abuse the flock.

    A God Of Second Chances

     | 7,935 views

    The account of Jonah provides a picture of the love, forgiveness, and compassion of God. This overview of Jonah reveals the second chance the Lord is longing to extend to all people through His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

    Our sermon for this morning is entitled “A God of Second Chances.” In “Jonah: A Veggie Tales Movie,” there is a scene where Jonah is sitting in the belly of a whale, and some angels appear out of nowhere and begin explaining to Jonah how God wanted to give him a second chance to be obedient; and ...read more

    Attitudes In The Life Of Jonah

     | 2,195 views

    Some people describe others by saying, “They have an attitude problem.” Listen, on any given day that could be said of any of us.

    Illus: There used to be a song that some churches in the South liked to sing called, “I woke up this morning feeling fine! I woke up with heaven on my mind.” But I have a confession, sometimes I wake up and I am not feeling fine, and I certainly do not have heaven on my mind. Generally, when we ...read more

    Chicken Of The Sea

    Jonah didn't follow God's clear direction for his life. Jonah didn't take a Bible Principle (Bible Truth) and make it a Conviction (belief based on Bible Truth), then take that Conviction and make it a Standard in his life.

    Introduction SLIDE Jonah 1:1-3 “Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me. But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; ...read more

    Running From God

    David Jansen made a big hit on the television series called, “The fugitive.”

    What made this program so exciting was that every week the character he played was staying just one step ahead of the law. He was running from the law because he had been falsely accused of killing his wife. He had been convicted and sentenced to prison, but somehow he escaped. After he ...read more
