Today: [Jonah 1] Jonah Becomes Fish Food. In our chapter, we are introduced to Jonah the prophet. He is sent to a wicked city but refuses to go. He knows that if they repent by his preaching they will be spared, and Jonah wants to see Nineveh destroyed. In attempting to flee Jonah runs headlong into the tempestuous insistence of God that he must obey and go to Nineveh. As a result, he goes completely overboard and is swallowed up by God’s sovereignty to be delivered to the very place where he didn’t want to go. How about you? This may describe your life and in it, an opportunity for you to surrender to what you have been fighting against in God.
