Jonah & the City | Part 4: Forgiveness | Scott Moore by Mosaic Church

Jonah is spit out by the great fish onto dry land and the Lord reinstated the mission He had for him: go to Ninevah and preach the truth of their sin. This time, he goes. The people heard the message and the nation mourned and repented. They turned from their ways, and God spared them. What can we learn about God as he forgives not just Ninevah, but Jonah too?

In chapter 2 of Jonah, we see our prophet in a terrible situation. Drowning and crying out to God. A great fish swallows him, and the chapter details his prayer and confession. In the darkest of days, do we call out to God in repentance and worship or do we blame Him and turn away?

Jonah & the City | Part 1: Embracing God's Calling | Sam Buchmeyer by Mosaic Church

The body cannot support itself without strength. Strength of muscles, bones, tendons and organs are vital to our survival. In Galatians 6 we are encouraged to use our strength to help those who are in a time of weakness. How does the Law of Christ to love God and love others give us the strength to carry other’s burdens?

Every day our lungs are filling with oxygen rich air. We rarely think about it, but this action keeps us alive and without it, we would perish. In the same way, prayer is vital to our spiritual lives. In Matthew 5, Jesus gives us instruction of how to pray and have a talking relationship with our Father. What is your relationship to prayer? Are you taking deep breaths or holding your breath?

We can do all the right things to take care of our body, but if we do not have proper nutrition, we will not have the power and endurance needed. In the same way, the scriptures are nutrition to our soul, giving us endurance and perseverance to follow the Kingdom of God.

When maintaining our relationship with God, we must keep one thing in mind above all else: Gratitude is the core of a healthy relationship with God. When the Hebrews were wandering in the desert, ingratitude led them to an unnecessary additional forty years before entering their promised land. The key to gratitude is remember who God is, and all He has done.
