ODM DAILY 31 August 2022 – WHO SENT THE STORMS? NO SHIPWRECK FOR ME!
TOPIC: WHO SENT THE STORMS? NO SHIPWRECK FOR ME!
The Lord sent a great wind on the sea and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up (Jonah 1:4). Despite many advances in technology, seafaring is still dangerous today. In the past 10 years, more than 1,000 large ships have been lost worldwide. We often don’t hear about these shipwrecks in the news unless they affect our own country or region.
The United States-flagged cargo ship, El Faro, on its way to Puerto Rico, sank at sea with all 33 crew members on October 1, 2015, after sailing into Hurricane Joaquin. So this was what nearly happened to Jonah – SHIPWRECK! The prophet Jonah boarded a ship heading for Tarshish, a destination as far away as he could go from where the Lord had sent him to preach—in Nineveh. But desp
ite Jonah’s rebellion, the Lord brought him back in the right direction.
God sent a storm that threatened to wreck the ship until Jonah was thrown overboard. Then, as the storm quickly cleared, the sailors worshiped the Lord, and God sent a huge fish to bring Jonah back to dry land. Not every STORM is from the devil. Some storms are sent to perfect the will of God for you! Have there been storms in your life that God has used to bring repentance and faith?
