Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Character Studies From The Bible

Jonah

7 Then the sailors said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.” They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah. 8 So they asked him, “Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What kind of work do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?”

9 He answered, “I am a Hebrew and I worship the Lord, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.”

10 This terrified them and they asked, “What have you done?” (They knew he was running away from the Lord, because he had already told them so.)

11 The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?”

12 “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.”

(Jonah 1)

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

The syncretism of the ancient pagan world is quite interesting. When the storm hit, the sailors each "prayed to their own god" to calm the seas. One sailor may have been burning a little incense to Baal, right next to a sailor who was prostrating himself to Astarte, who was next to a guy calling upon Amon Ra, Neptune, or Dagon, the fish-headed god of the Philistines. It was one big, happy, tolerant, diverse, multi-cultural ship!

Of course, mythical "gods" do not answer prayer, so the storm continued. In a true spirit of "international cooperation", the sailors cast lots, trusting only in fate, to find the culprit!

Jonah's confession of guilt awed the sailors, and they realized that Jonah's God was the ony One worth praying to! It is possible that many a heart was turned that day. But still, Jonah feels sorry for himself, and instead of using this opportunity to lead the entire ship to faith in the One True God, he asks to be cast into the Deep.

Nevertheless, God will use even this to teach His Eternal Truth.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Yes Lord, may we lay down before Thee the anything not of Thee and Thy WORD. As Our utmost offering before Thee... in peace, with love, and hope in our heart, mind, and future. Lead us in the paths we are to walk, and teach us the words of faith and salvation that we may show through our lives the way to be pleasing before Our LORD and Savior doing for others as we would have them do unto ourselves.
