I tell people this everytime. You think Nigeria is bad because we lack basic amenities right? Apart from basic amenities, Nigeria is the best place to live in the world.

I heard you were talking about fathers. Well Brandon, from what I gather, you also had a father.
He’s not going to be watching Wrestlemania either. Because
Story is mainly about mercy but the fact that a man changed it for God in the Old Testament and lived was just pretty funny imo.
A close second overlooked story would be Jesus cursing the fig tree but that is not today’s meal😂😂😂😂. EOT
Jonah then tells them (funny lad) his nation of origin. And the backstory as to how he got here and all
You mean God, that Israelite God we have all heard about, sent you somewhere and you decided to flee? On my boat? In this Old Testament?
Jonah is also praying, even though he knows that it is because of him that this problems are happening rn. He’s saying God abeg but God is not even looking at him.
So captain decides to draw lots to see who is causing wahala. Lot falls on Jonah.
The crew men:
So he is thrown in the water and the storm ceases. One would think its over but no.
Jonah while in the water encounters Ejanla. Ejanla after little to no struggle in the foreign waters swallows this man whole (if he was married, idek how he would explain to his wife)
Nineveh is an Assyrian city and Assyria don show Israel shege banza recently and as a result there would be natural resentment towards such a city by an Israelite.
So Jonah decides to not go to Nineveh as it is not him that God will use. If they perish, they perish
The fish vomits him on the shores of *you guessed it* Nineveh. Here, his assignment is reiterated and Jonah goes about the Lord’s business.
He is reaching every man, woman and child telling them to turn away from their wicked ways and repent
So all the pagans decide that as Jonah is the problem, let them throw him inside the water and maybe God will spare them.
They peobably gag him so he cannot protest because lmao who and who is going to die because you wan japa?
Throw him inside water jare
So you are feeling bad for a tree that you did not plant in anybody’s father’s house but you just want me to destroy a city of over 120000 people and their animals just like that?
Change am again for me if e sure you. You cannot tell me what to do
So he runs away by ship, thinking that God only has power on land. Oluwa shock am for road.
Heavy storm waylays brother’s ship. Ship is almost sunk a couple of times. Mad tides. Everybody starts panicking and the captain goes “everybody pray to your god o”.
God tells Jonah to go to Nineveh and tell them that He is angry with them and that He would destroy them if they did not turn from their wicked ways and repent.
Jonah says “calm” because its God and its old Testament before e collect.
It would also be a funny story to tell his grandkids or family yunno but I digress.
Jonah is basically in the deep dark belly of ejanla for give or take 72 hours. He then begs for forgiveness and says he would do what God asked.
God then turns the fish to Uber
Jonah begins to ask God whether He wants to kill him ni.
Mind you, Jonah, while changing it for God, even told God that it is better God kills him than forgive the people in Nineveh.
F around and find out, eje.
Evangelism ends up being a success and the people put on sack cloth and show that they indeed acknowledge that yunno God is indeed a merciful God and would show them mercy. Even Oba of Nineveh join the repentance.
Everybody repent make nobody collect. God forgave. All good
Jonah is asking God why He killed the tree from the previous day. He really grew to love that tree yunno (funny lad)
God then asks if Jonah felt pity for the tree and Jonah said yes.
God:
You brought me all the way out here after I still tried to run away from you, Put me in the belly of a fish, a big fish for 3 days and Insane psychological torture just to come and warn the enemy that you are angry with them and would destroy them.
Then you forgive them?
Jonah enjoys the shade and eats the fruit that the tree brings. Basically, he is enjoying God’s amazing doings in conditions that don’t merit amazing doings. Jonah (funny lad) then goes to sleep
God:
So God turns up the temperature in Nineveh because (convenience. nothing too hard am) and Jonah cannot stand the heat. He goes looking for shade but for some reason, shade did not want to be found.
God then grows this amazing tree out of nowhere. It had both shade and food

Its exclusive to just Gemini?
Life is, to me, completely unrelated to zodiac signs. They're cool aesthetics tho. I just want to hear why you feel she kept on talking to him because of zodiac signs
Happy Sunday everyone.
For today, the tale I shall be narrating is one that we are all very familiar with. It involves obedience and a goat.
Its the story of Abraham and Isaac. Walk with me, please
Story time!!!!
Today’s tale is one that will pretty much touch a few nerves. A story that does not sit well with everyone. Its the story of David, Bathsheba and Uriah.
Walk with me
