Jonah Pt. 3 – Thank God for His Mercy!

1. Vs. 1:17-2:2 – what is Jonah’s situation? How was he likely feeling about Himself? In light of that what is the significance of him praying THIS prayer in THIS time? Cf. Ps. 61:2; 86:13; 88:1–7; 116:3


2. Reading 2:3-4 – what do you think Jonah’s feelings were in this moment? How should we respond when we’re feeling like this? (Cf. Is. 38:17; Ps. 77:1-7 Ps. 71:12-16; Ps. 42)


3. What are the sacrifices that God is TRULY looking for? Heb. 13:15; Ps. 51:17; I Pet. 2:5; Rom. 12:1 How can we make a “practice” of making those sacrifices?


4. What was encouraging to you about this passage and what it tells us about God?
