Jonah #2 – The Interventions of God on a Life
Grahame Walker
We are continuing this morning with our four-part series on Jonah. Jonah is unique among
prophetic books. Rather than a list of prophecies, it is about a single mission in a man’s life.
Last week we looked at the call of God on Jonah’s life and how Jonah turned away from that
call. We discovered that he had a callous disregard for the spiritual welfare of the people in
Nineveh.
He had tasted grace and came to faith in God. He was walking with God, but he would not
sacrifice so that others would know God as well. We talked about the ‘Jonah spirit’, a spirit
that would not even consider the message of God going to those in Nineveh.
