Guess Who

  1. I think I was the first prophet who ever arose from the guts of a fish to prophesy to a nation.
  2. My master beat me three times, and before I realized it I was talking to him like a man, and it didn’t seem to shock him either!
  3. Things were pretty serious for my people, and it looked like I was the only person who could help. So in fear and trembling, due to the situation, and with fasting, I called upon God because without his help, there goes my head.
  4. I got too greedy for my own good, and it almost cost me to be cut to shreds.
  5. I was riding along on a certain road, minding my own business, when suddenly, before I knew what was happening, I was on the ground looking up and talking to the last person in this world whom I ever thought I would acknowledge, let alone talk to; especially, since I really didn’t believe in him.

    "Study to show thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." (II Timothy 2:15) Have you had the need to use simple math that you learned in elementary school, such as: Addition, multiplication or subtraction? Of course you have. But did you notice that no matter how many years it has been since attending elementary school, you still remember what you learned? That’s the way it will be with the study of God’s word. If we study, then we will find that the Holy Spirit will work with what we have learned, and call it back to our remembrance every time we need it. I know sometimes we may want God to supernaturally infuse his word into our minds, but sorry, it doesn’t work like that. If we want to be noted as a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, who rightly divides the word of truth, we must STUDY!!!

    "Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the Lord… But the Lord sent out a great wind into the sea…Now the Lord had prepared a great fish to swallow up Jonah. And Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights."(Read: Jonah 1:1-4:11) You may run, but you can not hide from the presence of the Lord. So don’t even go there!

    "But Jesus said unto them, "A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house." (Mark 6:4) Jesus encourages us not to overthrow the call of God upon our lives because those who have known us from childhood or who are closest to us refuse to accept it.

Prayer of Repentance

Dear Jesus,

I’m sorry for my sins. Please forgive me and come into my heart. I want to be born again. Baptize me in your Holy Spirit. Amen.
