Prayer Lessons from the Pit
Jonah 1:17 – 2:10
Even when we find ourselves deep in the consequence of our sin, our merciful God will hear us and respond to our desperate cry for help.
Our God is great and awesome in His power.
God is always in control. Even as we deal with the consequences of our disobedience, we can trust Him to be working for our good.
God is patient and longsuffering toward His children.
God is more merciful, more patient, and more forgiving than we can ever imagine.
We are delusional to think that we can run from an omnipresent God or live outside His loving boundaries without consequences.
Even in the consequences of our sin, God can turn what seems to be our punishment into an instrument of His grace.
Resist the urge to run and hide from God. Run to Him in prayer. Be persistent in prayer, knowing that God is even more persistent in mercy.

Prayer, talking to God, or simply calling out to Him from our lowest and darkest place can be the starting point for spiritual renewal.
Even when we find ourselves in the consequences of our sin, our merciful God will hear us and respond to our desperate cries for help.
Our lowest and darkest moments are the perfect time to lift our gaze to God and to declare His greatness in prayer and worship.
