This is part two of Jonah the runner. If you haven't listened to episode #8, I encourage you to go back and listen to it as well. On today's episode we are going to look again at Jonah, the perfect example as a runner. We know that Jonah has run, and that he put his running shoes on and took off in the opposite direction of what the Lord has instructed him. Then we look at Jonah 1:4 And we see here that because of Jonah's running, then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. When we choice to run away from God we cause God-violent storms to come into our life. Then we start the blame game. We blame God, God why did you do this? We blame our husbands, we blame our children, we blame our parents. It's not always God's fault, or our husbands, our children, or even our parents, or family’s fault. However, when we run Satan loves when we are disobedient. He will have a hand in it. He is like yes, this is great, don't do it, run fast hard, keep running. How darn God ask this of you anyway. When we are disobedient and run, we do the work for Satan, and he loves it. God uses storms in our lives to get our attention. I give you three points here in today's episode. First know this when we choice to run away from God we cause God-violent storms to come into our life. God loves chasing rebels and will come after us. Do keep in mind when we run, we are not the only ones who suffer from our storms. Maybe it's our children, our marriages, our parents, our church families and even strangers that suffer because of our disobedience. Because of our choices. Second ask God, Did I cause this storm by running, by my disobedience, by my choices I have made? If in fact you have caused this storm in your life. Third we need to repent. Ask God to forgive us and turn and run toward God and what he has instructed for us to do, to go, to be. David is a perfect example of when we sin and how we should repent, read Psalm 51 David confesses to God for I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me. Against you, you only have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight. He asks God to create in him a pure heart. I know that I want to go from running to no more running. Let's look at Acts 13:22 God chooses David a man after his own heart; he will do everything I want him to do. I know I want to be more like David a woman after God's own heart and do everything God wants me to do. I pray today will be the day that you choose to stop running and surrender. Ok God NO MORE RUNNING, I SURRENDER.
