Sabbath: The Restless Prophet
Image © Pacific Press
Sabbath Afternoon
Read for This Week’s Study: Jonah 1:1-4:11, Jeremiah 25:5, Ezekiel 14:6, Revelation 2:5, Luke 9:51-56, Jude 1-25.
Memory Text: “And should I not pity Nineveh, that great city, in which are more than one hundred and twenty thousand persons who cannot discern between their right hand and their left — and much livestock?” (Jonah 4:11).
One of the most interesting stories in Scripture has to be that of Jonah. Here he was, a prophet of God, someone called of God, and yet — what? He runs away from God’s call. Then, after being persuaded in a dramatic way to change his mind and obey the Lord, he does so, but then only to do what? To complain that the people to whom he was called to witness actually repented and are spared the destruction that, otherwise, would have been theirs!
What an example of someone not at rest, not at peace — even to the point where he cries out, “Therefore now, O LORD, please take my life from me, for it is better for me to die than to live!” (Jonah 4:3).
Jesus Himself referred to the story of Jonah, saying: “The men of Nineveh will rise in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, because they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here” (Matthew 12:41). Greater than Jonah, indeed! If not, He couldn’t be our Savior.
This week, let’s look at Jonah and what we can learn from his restlessness and lack of peace.
Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, September 18.
Amen!

September 2021 President’s Video: “God’s Spirit at Work Around the World”
“In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people.” (Acts 2:17) This text has never been more relevant than today. We are seeing its fulfillment right before our eyes! Below is a short video where I share some of the amazing things taking place right now—things we have never seen before! Here are a few of the highlights: · Prostitutes accept Jesus in Bangladesh and share Godpods in undercover missions.
· Zoom meeting with 16 countries—all studying the Bible together.
· Evangelism centers in Israel, the Philippines and Sikkim—near Bhutan, Tibet and Nepal!
· More than 500 assassins surrender to Jesus and to the authorities.
· An upcoming baptism of two generals: one from the rebel army, and one from the government military in the Philippines!
· 1,500 digital missionaries working with AWR, Total Member Involvement and the I Will Go Project. Yes, we can only stand in awe as we see God pour out His Spirit, transforming the lives of people all around the world. And I love that He uses you and me—and Adventist World Radio—to do it!
