Notes
and Scripture from Services (NKJV):
Jonah 1
Jonah’s Disobedience
1 Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the
son of Amittai, saying, 2 “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against
it; for their wickedness has come up before Me.” 3 But Jonah arose to
flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Joppa, and
found a ship going to Tarshish; so he paid the fare, and went down into it, to
go with them to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord.
The Storm at Sea
4 But the Lord sent out a great wind on the
sea, and there was a mighty tempest on the sea, so that the ship was about to
be broken up.
5 Then the mariners were afraid; and every man cried
out to his god, and threw the cargo that was in the ship into the
sea, to lighten the load. But Jonah had gone down into the lowest parts of the
ship, had lain down, and was fast asleep.
6 So the captain came to him, and said to him, “What do
you mean, sleeper? Arise, call on your God; perhaps your God will consider us,
so that we may not perish.”
7 And they said to one another, “Come, let us cast
lots, that we may know for whose cause this trouble has come upon
us.” So they cast lots, and the lot fell on Jonah. 8 Then they said
to him, “Please tell us! For whose cause is this trouble upon us?
What is your occupation? And where do you come from? What is your country? And
of what people are you?”
9 So he said to them, “I am a Hebrew; and I
fear the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.”
Jonah Thrown into the Sea
10 Then the men were exceedingly afraid, and said to
him, “Why have you done this?” For the men knew that he fled from the presence
of the Lord, because he had told them. 11 Then they said to him,
“What shall we do to you that the sea may be calm for us?”—for the sea was
growing more tempestuous.
12 And he said to them, “Pick me up and throw me into
the sea; then the sea will become calm for you. For I know that this great tempest is because
of me.”
13 Nevertheless the men rowed hard to return to land,
but they could not, for the sea continued to grow more tempestuous against
them. 14 Therefore they 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.”15 So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, and the sea
ceased from its raging. 16 Then the men feared the Lord exceedingly,
and offered a sacrifice to the Lord and took vows.
Jonah’s Prayer and Deliverance
17 Now the Lord had prepared a great fish to
swallow Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three
nights.
Continue in prayer will continue in victory.
To God you are more valuable than you think.
God wants to use you in a special way.
If you want Victory, Pray to God.
If you hang out with God, you will understand what God wants in your life.
If you are wrapped up in Jesus, then the enemy won't be able to attack you, but he will use people to try to attack you.
