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)
