Show Notes
Today we began a new four-week series through the book of Jonah, walking through one chapter each week and letting the Scripture itself teach us.
Jonah is given a clear call to go to Nineveh and announce judgment, but he runs in the opposite direction. Is it fear, or something deeper? And when God hurls a violent storm that threatens to break the ship apart, what does that reveal about the God who refuses to let His purposes be thwarted?
In this message, Ps Jason carefully unpacks Jonah 1, showing that God has the power to orchestrate the circumstances of our lives to humble our hearts and bring us into alignment with His will. If you’ve been putting off something God has asked you to do, convinced your plan is better than His, or weighed down by regrets from your past, this message will challenge and encourage you.
The sooner we align our will with God’s, the better off we will be. God can turn even our past sins and mistakes into something good, and His purposes always prevail.
