Devotional on the first two chapters of Jonah. 

Jonah Flees From the Lord

The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.”

But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.

Jonah 2 

“When my life was ebbing away,

I remembered you, Lord,
and my prayer rose to you,
to your holy temple.

“Those who cling to worthless idols

turn away from God’s love for them.
But I, with shouts of grateful praise,

I will say, ‘Salvation comes from the Lord.’”

10 And the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.
