The 3rd chapter of Jonah is a chapter of remarkable grace; and remarkable repentance.
God spoke to Jonah a second time. I’m thankful that God is willing to speak a second time and a third time… a hundred times if necessary. This time, Jonah obeyed the Lord, went to Ninevah, and miraculously the entire town repented.
The Hebrew word for repent is shub, and it means to turn. When we repent for our sin, we’re not just admitting we were wrong or feeling guilty for our error. Unless we turn from our sin, it’s not repentance. It’s just remorse. That’s what Jonah did. He changed directions and turned towards Ninevah. That’s what the Ninevites did when they “put a stop to their evil ways.”
Is there anything in your life you need to repent of today? Is there something you’ve felt bad for, or even asked for forgiveness for, but you haven’t turned from it yet? Ask God to help you turn from those things that are keeping you from Him. He will help you.
After you finish reading, be sure to listen to the daily podcast episode of Jonah by Daily Faith + Life wherever you listen to podcasts.
