    Aligning My Will With God’s Series

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jan 21, 2018

    The amazing story of Jonah reminds us: 1) Don't run from God, 2) When life gets you down, look up, 3) Respond to God's second chance, and 4) Get God's heart for people. Like Jonah, we need to give up the "reluctant prophet" role and stay in God's will.

    Jonah 3:1-10 Aligning My Will with God’s Prophets with a Purpose – Week 2 Do you ever feel like some people are beyond hope, that they are incapable of change? Or maybe you’ve felt like God wanted you to do something, but you resisted that urge? If so, you can identify with the prophet Jonah. ...read more

    A Futile Effort Series

    God spoke to Jonah, calling him to go and cry against Nineveh. Foolishly, Jonah thought he could flee the presence of God. However, God intended for Nineveh to hear a warning, and He intended Jonah to deliver that warning. It is futile to try and flee God's presence!

    A Futile Effort Jonah 1: 1-10 Having considered the introduction for Jonah, I want to remind us of the major theme of the book. Most tend to focus solely on Jonah’s miraculous deliverance from the belly of the great fish, but that is just one scene from this account in Scripture. In fact, that ...read more

    The book of Jonah describes the event that had happened at the time of prophet Jonah. It explains the relationship between a Prophet and his God.

    Theme: I worship the Living Lord Text: Jonah 1:1-9 Jonah answered them, “I am a Hebrew. I worship Yahweh, the God of heaven. He is the Elohim who made the sea and the land.” (Names of God Bible).

    Jonah ran from the calling of God on his life. We often do the same when God's us to be on Mission with Him.

    Life On The Run From God! Reading: Jonah 1v1-10 As you read the books of 1st and 2nd Kings,…you find that the nation of Israel was in a mess. In fact,…they were in a desperate crisis. King after king over Israel,…except Hezekiah and Josiah,…were corrupt and did not serve the ...read more

    Five Points - 1. Jonah Needs To PAY ATTENTION; 2. Jonah Needs To Be WOKE UP; 3. Jonah Needs To Be FOUND OUT; 4. Jonah Needs To Be SACRIFICED; 5. Jonah Needs To Be A MISSIONARY

    Nowhere To Run

    Contributed by Anthony Zibolski on Dec 2, 2014

    Running from God is what most people do when they are avoiding God and do not like what He is telling them. Disobedience will cause us to run, but coming clean with God causes us to make wise decisions.

    Nowhere to run Jonah chapter 1:1-1:7 This morning we will look at the familiar passage of the prophet Jonah running from God and what can happen if you choose to run from him. This passage will speak to each of us because all of us have attempted to run from God, hide from God and some are ...read more

    Attitudes In The Life Of Jonah

     | 2,214 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

    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.

    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

    Many remember Jonah as a book about Jonah and the big fish. This book is really about the relentless love and pursuit of God.

    Intro: What do most people remember about Jonah if you have ever heard the story in VBS or Sunday School? You probably remember that it is a whale of a tale. There would be lots of talk about Jonah and his disobedience and reluctance to go where God tells him to go. The problem with remembering ...read more

    Intro: I want to remind you that this whale of a tale called the book of Jonah is not about a great big fish, a great big city or a grumpy old prophet. This book is about a Great big God that is willing to graciously deal with a disobedient, disgruntled, disgusted prophet. In this story of a ...read more
