Thank you for joining us today. Tonight is the last night of revival in Thomasville and each service has been wonderful so far. We love being in revival and I am thankful that God has helped us. We will have pictures of revival tomorrow or Friday by God's grace.
We are so happy to bring you A Word For Wednesday. A few moments ago I posted A Word for Wednesday on our YouTube Channel. Please watch and leave us a comment here or on YouTube.
Pastor Bill Parks preached from the book of Jonah recently and his premise blew my mind.
Bro Parks said IF Jonah had obeyed God, the whole book would have been ten verses long. But Jonah added much trouble to his life because of disobedience!
If we will obey God instantly He will bring great things to pass and we will avoid so much trouble in our lives by simple obedience.
Here is how the book of Job should have read.
Two verses in Chapter One
1 Now the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
2 Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.
And eight verses from Chapter Three.
3 So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the Lord. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city of three days' journey.
4 And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.
5 So the people of Nineveh believed God, and proclaimed a fast, and put on sackcloth, from the greatest of them even to the least of them.
6 For word came unto the king of Nineveh, and he arose from his throne, and he laid his robe from him, and covered him with sackcloth, and sat in ashes.
7 And he caused it to be proclaimed and published through Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles, saying, Let neither man nor beast, herd nor flock, taste any thing: let them not feed, nor drink water:
8 But let man and beast be covered with sackcloth, and cry mightily unto God: yea, let them turn every one from his evil way, and from the violence that is in their hands.
9 Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
