    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.

    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.

But the storm was becoming worse and worse, and they got nowhere.” (GNB) As we continue these studies on the life of Jonah, there are many lessons that we can learn from the same. Though Jonah ...read more
