    Aligning My Will With God’s Series

    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

    “JONAH: THE PRAYING PROPHET” Jonah 2:1-10 David P. Nolte Jonah disobeyed God’s command to go to Nineveh and cry against it. He ran to Joppa to take a ship to Tarshish.

    Have you discovered the calling that God has for your life? Do you know what it is that He wants you to do for Him? If you do know what He has called you to do are you doing it or avoiding it?

    Praying Under Water

    based on 2 ratings
     | 15,866 views

    Jonah's prayer from the belly of a fish serves to encourage Christians to pray, especially when under water.

    “Then Jonah prayed to the LORD his God from the belly of the fish, saying “‘I called out to the LORD, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice. For you cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas, and the flood surrounded me; ...read more

    What Is Prayer About

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Sep 17, 2012
     | 3,804 views

    Prayer is not an antidote to worry. Have you ever prayed about a stressful situation just to discover that you’re still worried about it? Faith is the antidote to worry. Prayer is about asking God for the supernatural.

    I would like for you to consider for a moment if God appeared to you and said, “The people of Kabul Afghanistan are ready to hear about my Son Jesus and I want you to be the messenger to go speak of His resurrection and offer of grace.” Would you go? Would you go, knowing, that ...read more

    It would be my guess that the most powerful prayer that Jonah ever prayed was in the belly of a fish. It’s possible that the most powerful prayer you have ever prayed was when you were in trouble as well. If crisis drives us to pray that's a good thing!

    When it’s hard to pray, Pray Harder! Jonah 2:1-10 Sometimes what you think might do you in will be the one thing that saves you. Sometimes the worst possible thing that can happen to you is exactly what you need. Sometimes the thing you fear the most is the very thing that will turn your ...read more

    In The Fish's Belly! Series

    Contributed by Victor Ramlall on Jun 23, 2013
     | 10,035 views

    Jonah's experience in the fish's belly motivates him to acknowledge and plead for God's mercy which Jonah was willing to deny Nineveh from experiencing.

    Question: Why was Jonah in the fish's belly? Almost everyone on the planet knows that!...or think they know! Well he was there because the fish swallowed him! The cause of this predicament was Jonah's original response to God's command. He did not like the idea of doing what God wanted, despite the ...read more

    God deals with us when we do not do His will. Jonah is a prime example of how we should listen to God, and how God deals with His own when they don't listen and rebel.

    The Chastening of the Reluctant, Rebellious Prophet: Jonah Chapter 2 Today's message is a continuation of a study on the book of Jonah, which we started last week. Please turn to the book of Jonah, which is between Obadiah and Micah, just a few books before Matthew which is the first book of the ...read more

    Jonah's Song Of Repentance Series

     | 6,649 views

    We too often believe the lie that things are meant to destroy us. Whether a violent storm or big fish what we think is meant to destroy us is actually designed by God to develop us.

    Intro: Think about this as we look at chapter 2 of Jonah. What did Jonah deserve? He deserved to be a man taco for a big fish. What did he get? God’s mercy. Jonah had already received God’s grace. God did not completely destroy Jonah or the Ship in the violent storm. God as a ...read more

    Why Was The One Sign Jesus Would Give "the Sign Of Jonah"? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Oct 30, 2013

    A look at whether Jonah died in the whale as well as what the specific significance of the "sign of Jonah" is.

    WHAT IS THE SIGN OF JONAH? Is the point that Jonah was in the whale or that Jonah was dead? - Matthew 12:38-40. - The point of the miracle is less the miracle of being in a whale or the specific time frame (“three days and three nights”) and more the miracle of resurrection. WHAT EXACTLY ...read more
