    Sermon # 33 - God Is Sovereign Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 11, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 398 views

    The King of Nineveh humbled himself before God because he understood that God is sovereign. There are many others in the bible who recognized God’s sovereignty and submitted to His will. Only those who recognize and acknowledge God’s sovereignty can joyfully accept His dealings in their lives.

    We read in Jonah 3:9, “Who knows? God may turn and relent and turn from his fierce anger, so that we may not perish.” (ESV) The one who said these words in the verse mentioned above, was the King of Nineveh, which makes it truly astounding. Let me give you a background which led to this response ...read more

    Sermon # 34 - The Unchanging God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 12, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 501 views

    Have you ever wondered if God would change His mind and if so for what reasons? The repentant King and people of Nineveh help us understand God’s true character, and our responsibility as the believers who belong to the body of Christ, the Church.

    We read in Jonah 3:10,“God saw what they did; he saw that they had given up their wicked behavior. So he changed his mind and did not punish them as he had said he would.” (GNB) God sent the prophet Jonah to preach against the city of Nineveh, with the message that in forty days the city would be ...read more

    Sermon # 35 - The Heart Of A Christian Leader Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 19, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 254 views

    Jonah was a prophet of God, but he did not understand the loving heart of God towards a repentant people. The heart of Moses as a leader of the Israelites and the forgiving heart of Jesus are the best examples of how a Christian leader should love and care for the people under his or her care.

    We read in Jonah 4:1, “Jonah was very unhappy about this and became angry.” (GNB) There are two kinds of emotions that Jonah expressed as mentioned in the verse above, one was sadness, and the other was anger. As we meditate on this portion of scripture, we will try to understand the reasons for ...read more

    Sermon # 36 - Learning To Forgive Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 20, 2024
     | 421 views

    Jonah was happy to receive God’s forgiveness for his disobedience, but was unhappy when God did the same for the people of Nineveh who repented of their sins. Jesus paid with his life for our forgiveness, and God expects us to extend this same forgiveness to those who wrong us in any way.

    For our meditation we will study Jonah 4:1, “Jonah was very unhappy about this and became angry.” (GNB) When the prophet Jonah preached to the people in the city of Nineveh, they took his words seriously, repented, and had a change of heart. God relented from punishing the people of Nineveh, and ...read more

    Sermon # 37 - Excuses People Give Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 27, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 879 views

    Jonah has some lame excuses for why he did not want to obey God and preach to the city of Nineveh. There are many others in the bible who gave excuses and the question is “Are we also giving excuses?” or “Are we fulfilling the Great Commission of the Lord Jesus and leading others into His kingdom?”

    We read in Jonah 4:2, “And he prayed to the LORD and said, “O LORD, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and relenting from disaster.” ...read more

    Sermon # 38 - The Grace And Justice Of God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 3, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 343 views

    Jonah desired that God should punish the people of Nineveh and was angry when God relented. There are two sides of God, His grace and His justice that go hand in hand. A proper understanding will help us set aside our sinful ways and to stay in the will of God.

    For today’s meditation we will look at Jonah 4:2, “And he prayed to the LORD and said, “O LORD, is not this what I said when I was yet in my country? That is why I made haste to flee to Tarshish; for I knew that you are a gracious God and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love, and ...read more

    Jonah 3:1-5 Here is the recap ~ God gave Jonah a command, Jonah disobeyed God and fled (Jonah sinned against God), God exerted His will on the wind and the sea and created a great storm in order to cause Jonah to repent, Jonah still did not repent and was still in hiding, God then commanded a ...read more

    Jonah 3:6-10

    Recap ~ 4-5 Jonah began to go into the city, going a day's journey. And he called out, “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown!” 5 And the people of Nineveh believed God. They called for a fast and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them to the least of them. So we have a ...read more

    Jonah 4:1-4

    So last week we saw that the people and king of Nineveh had repented from their rebellion against God. God had given them an option to either repent and not be destroyed or continue in their rebellion against Him and perish. Malachi 3:6 ~ “For I the Lord do not change; therefore you, O children ...read more

    Jonah 4:5-11

    Jonah 4:5-11 So we finished Jonah 4:1-4 last week with Jonah asking God to take his life because he was displeased with the patience, mercy and grace that God had given to Nineveh. Imagine being mad at that. But Jonah isn't done with his little temper tantrum yet as we will see in these last ...read more

    Sermon # 39 - Right Kind Of Prayers Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 8, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 354 views

    Jonah prayed wrong and selfishly because he did not understand the heart of God. Jesus set the example and taught His disciples how to pray. If we align our lives to God’s will and pray accordingly there will be great transformation in our lives and in that of those around us.

    We read in Jonah 4:3, “Therefore now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live.” (ESV) As we continue to study about Jonah, there are numerous lessons we have picked up already from the events that transpired in his life. The people of Nineveh repented at ...read more

    Sermon # 40 - Mercy Instead Of Judgement Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 10, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 481 views

    Jonah freely accepted God’s mercy but wanted God’s judgement to be given the people of Nineveh. God’s word reminds us that it is not our prerogative to judge others, but rather to be merciful to them, just as God is merciful to us.

    We read in Jonah 4:4, “Then the LORD said, "Do you think it is right for you to be angry?" (ERV) The God who created heaven and the earth asked Jonah the prophet, if he thought it was right to be angry with Him, very much like a parent would enquire of their child, who is upset with ...read more

    Sermon # 41 - Forgotten Purpose Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 15, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 427 views

    Jonah did not perceive God’s heart and thereby failed to rejoice when God’s purposes were accomplished in Nineveh. We as a church must have our hearts beat as one with that of God’s and fulfill His purposes to reach the lost and bring them into God’s Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 4:5, “Jonah went out east of the city and sat down. He made a shelter for himself and sat in its shade, waiting to see what would happen to Nineveh.” (GNB) In this series we are studying the life of Jonah and comparing it with the church of today, thereby trying to learn some ...read more

    Sermon # 42 - Time To Rise Up Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 633 views

    Jonah was seated in the wrong place waiting for God to pour out His wrath on the city of Nineveh. There were many others in the Bible who were in the wrong place like Jonah. If we are in such a place, God reminds us to rise up and go, to fulfill His purposes for our lives.

    We read in Jonah 4:5, “Jonah went out east of the city and sat down. He made a shelter for himself and sat in its shade, waiting to see what would happen to Nineveh.” (GNB) God sent the prophet Jonah to the city of Nineveh with a message.
