Day 19: His Perfect Will

Oh GOD PURSUED HIM

because GOD'S PLAN was the PERFECT PLAN

for JONAH,

but JONAH ran the other way.

My WILL vs. GOD'S WILL.

HIS PERFECT WILL is HIS DESIRE

for all HIS CREATIONS

because our WILL our WAY is always

IMPERFECT.

But GOD never stops PURSUING us,

because HIS WILL WILL BE DONE.

So even though JONAH ran the other way

GOD'S WILL was to have JONAH

swallowed by a BIG FISH

and the BIG FISH gladly took this challenge on.

I wonder if we will ever meet this famous BIG FISH?

GOD used this FISH to get to JONAH'S heart

so that JONAH would meet HIS GOD face to face through prayer.

And then JONAH said the words that brought joy to HIS ABBA FATHER'S HEART

“But [as for me], I will sacrifice to YOU

With the voice of THANKSGIVING.

I shall pay that which I have vowed.

Salvation is from the LORD!” (Jonah 2:9).

Oh the heavens were rejoicing.

Oh GOD was beaming like a proud Papa

as JONAH the runaway was now in the stance of

THANKSGIVING.

For GOD'S WILL was done~

"So the LORD commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land" (Jonah 2:10).

Oh GOD'S WILL for all HIS CREATIONS~

"Be Joyful Always. Pray Continuously.

Give Thanks in ALL circumstances

for this is GOD'S WILL for you in CHRIST JESUS" (I Thessalonians 6:16-18)

IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES~

even in

in the belly of a BIG FISH,

and that is a strange circumstance.

So if GOD can get the attention of JONAH in all of his IMPERFECTIONS

why would HE give up on you or me or anyone else.

So let's take the next 5 days leading up to

THANKSGIVING DAY

by embracing

GOD'S PERFECT WILL

with THANKSGIVING

because

"THY WILL" be done (listen to the song below)
