Fusion: week of 10/15

FAMILY THEME: GOD ANSWERS PRAYER

Jonah 2:1-10

What do we do when we've blown it and are sitting in the 

midst of a mess of our own making? We can do what

Jonah did; we can pray.

1.  God Hears and Answers the Humble Prayers of His People

     (Jonah 2:1-2)

     In distress and at death's door, Jonah cried out to God,

     and God heard and answered him.

 
2.  God Hears and Answers Prayer When We Acknowledge

     We Need Him

     (Jonah 2:3-7)

     Jonah was in humiliating, deperate circumstances, yet

     God delivered him.

     

3.  Thanksgiving, Worship, and Obedience Are Proper

     Responses When God Answers Prayer

     (Jonah 2:8-10)

     Jonah ended his prayer with worship and devotion.
