Every Word

Here’s the Challenge

You’ve experienced that.
 
 “So the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.”
 - Jonah 2:10 (NKJV) 

What Would YOU Do?

“How could you let this happen?!”
 
 “Then Jonah prayed unto the Lord his God out of the fish’s belly, and said, ‘I cried by reason of mine affliction unto the Lord.’”
 -  Jonah 2:1-2 (KJV)

All Means All

He revealed a lot about himself.
 
 “Make disciples of all nations.” 
 - Matthew 28:19 (NKJV) 

Overboard

How many people forget?
 
 “Then the men feared the Lord exceedingly, and offered a sacrifice unto the Lord, and made vows.”
 - Jonah 1:16 (KJV)

Reaching Others

They were heard praying out loud.
 
 “...cried out to the Lord and said, ‘We pray, O Lord, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O Lord, have done as it pleased You.’”
 - Jonah 1:14 (NKJV)  

Frightened Seafarers

Don’t waste your time.
 
 “The mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god.”
 - Jonah 1:5 (KJV)

Intervention

God didn’t take no for an answer.
 
 "The Lord sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken.” 
 - Jonah 1:4 (KJV)

This Is God’s M.O.

If Christians can figure that out…
 
 “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.”
 - Jonah 1:2 (KJV)

Let’s Not Be That

Leave it in the past.
 
 “Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish.”
 - Jonah 1:3 (KJV)  

People Do It All the Time

History’s first submarine ride…
 
 “But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.” 
 - Jonah 1:3 (KJV)
