As we have studied through Jonah\u2019s prayer in Jonah 2, I have been fairly critical of Jonah and what he says. I have said that his prayer, while full of Scripture and pious language, is actually a big sham. He praises himself, condemns the sailors, and reveals a lot of self-righteousness and pride.
\n
\nNow that was my take on the prayer. And honestly, I hate being critical of someone else\u2019s prayer. My prayer life isn\u2019t great, and I imagine that most of my prayers are quite selfish as well.
\n
\nSo why did I feel it was okay to be critical of Jonah\u2019s prayer? Well, because it is in Scripture, and Scripture is given to teach us something, I believe that Jonah\u2019s prayer is given to teach us how not to pray.
\n
\nI believe this because of what we read in Jonah 2:10, where see God\u2019s response to Jonah\u2019s prayer. It doesn\u2019t really matter what I think of Jonah\u2019s prayer, or what you think. What matter\u2019s is what God thinks. Right?
\n
\nWell, that is what we see today in Jonah 2:10. This verse contains God\u2019s response to Jonah\u2019s prayer, which is what we are studying in this episode of the One Verse Podcast.
