Season 2 Episode 7 – We Need To Pray!

5:59 Jonah 2 1

  • Jonah is safe?

  • Now Jonah want to Pray

    • Prayed to the LORD

    • His God

    • From the Belly of the fish

    • Does Jonah know where his bread is buttered?

      • Was his faith strengthened?

      • Has his attitude changed? - Probably need to see the rest of the chapter

      • 7:51 Jonah 2 2-4

        • Prayer - What is it?

        • This is a Psalm of Thanksgiving

        • Parallels

          • Jonah Called - Jonah Cried

          • Jonah’s Distress - Out of the Belly of Sheol

          • He answered - You Heard my Voice

          • The LORD did it

            • Your Waves

            • Your Billows

            • No more Presence due to death in Sheol

              • No longer in presence (no worship or praise)

              • No longer able to the holy temple (aligns with the other verses in this section of the Thanksgiving Psalm

              • Jonah 2 5-7 - Chris

                • Locked Up - They Won’t Let me Out

                  • Metaphor for dying

                    • Water closing in on (engulfed) me (lack of air)

                    • Deep Surrounded Me (water everywhere)

                    • Weeds wrapped around my head (Entrapped)

                    • More Death Statements

                      • At the foot of mountains

                      • With bars that prevent me from returning

                      • But there’s hope

                        • Yet (adversative) - with all that I was expecting/experiencing

                        • The LORD brought me out of the pit

                        • O LORD my God

                        • Jonah 2 8-9 - Jasmine

                          • True futility

                            • Regarding (devoting oneself to) Empty Things (vain idols)

                            • Separation from the Steadfast Love (Jonah has experienced this)

                            • What I Am Going to Do

                              • What is a voice of Thanksgiving

                              • The right person to give sacrifice

                              • I will  give it

                              • The LORD is the one who saves (evidenced above)

                              • Jonah 2-10 - Moyo

                                • The LORD Speaks to the Fish Again

                                  • This time to spit him out

                                  • Back to the Land of the living (dry land)
