    God has a call on our lives. We need to stop running and obey that call.

    Jonah 1 The Runaway Prophet Jonah was a prophet of the most-high God. It was his job to listen to the word of God and then communicate it to the people. It is by God’s word through Jonah that Jeroboam II extended the boundaries of Israel in 2 Kings 14:25. Much of what he would communicate would ...read more

    The Saints of the Lord must wake up and obey the call of God or He may just allow us to spend time in the "belly of the whale" until we do!

    We all wait for that call from God, but what do we do when it comes?

    When we hear God’s call, but do not head. The reading this week is a little longer than last, but I decided it was important to read the entire first chapter of Jonah. Everyone is familiar with the story of Jonah being swallowed by the whale, but perhaps not everyone knows why. As we can see ...read more

    How Much Is The Fare To Tarshish? Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 6, 2003
    based on 35 ratings
     | 22,531 views

    Jonah refused to go to Tarshish because emotionally he felt unwelcome and theologically he thought he could escape God’s oversight. He paid hidden costs, in vain: the loss of a vessel, the loss of joy, human wreckage, reckoning with eternity.

    We can learn some great life lessons from Jonah, this is the first of 4 messages I first preached in 1999. I do not remember who my sources for help were so I cannot give proper credit.
