Jonah 2

Today we are reading Jonah 2. In this chapter we read about Jonah’s prayer from inside the fish. “When my life was fainting away, I remembered the Lord, and my prayer came to you, into your holy temple. Those who pay regard to vain idols forsake their hope of steadfast love. But I with the voice of thanksgiving will sacrifice to you; what I have vowed I will pay. Salvation belongs to the Lord!” And the Lord spoke to the fish, and it vomited Jonah out upon the dry land.” Jonah‬ ‭2:7-10‬ ‭ESV‬‬ This chapter is remarkable. Jonah deliberately disobeyed God and even then God protected him. In his last moments of consciousness Jonah remembered God. He prayed to God and in his prayer he praised God! How will you face the moment of your death? What did God do when Jonah prayed? How will God rescue us from death? May God give you the strength to live today with Heaven in view! Pastor Tim
