5.  RUNNING FROM MY MISSION CAUSES BAD CONSEQUENCES ...

 1) IF I RUN FROM GOD MY LIFE WILL GO DOWNHILL

 He went DOWN to the city of Joppa, where he found a ship that was going to the opposite direction, the city of Tarshish. Jonah paid for the trip and went DOWN below the deck, aboard, planning to go to run away from the Lord.” Jonah 1:3b (NKJV/NLT/NCV)

 “Jonah had gone DOWN into the lowest parts of the ship, had lain DOWN, and was fast asleep” Jonah 1:5 (NKJV)

  (later) “I sank down, down into the deep sea!”  Jonah 2:3 (NCV)

  “I was as far down as a body can go!”  Jonah 2:6 (MSG)

2)  IF I RUN FROM GOD, IT WILL COST ME

“He paid the price to sail to Tarshish.”  Jonah 1:3b

 3)  IF I RUN FROM GOD, GOD WILL OPPOSE ME

“The LORD sent a violent wind over the sea ....” Jonah 1:4a

 4)  IF I RUN FROM GOD, OTHER PEOPLE GET HURT TOO

 “The storm was so powerful that the ship was in danger of breaking up.” Jonah 1:4b (GW)

 “Fearing for their lives, the desperate sailors shouted to their gods for help and threw the cargo overboard to lighten the ship. Now, Jonah had gone below deck and was lying there sound asleep.” Jonah 1:5 (NLT/GW)

 “The captain of the ship went to him and asked, “How can you sleep? Get up, and pray to your God. Maybe he will notice us, and we won’t die.” Jonah 1:6 (GW)

 “What have you done,” they asked, “to bring this awful storm upon us? Jonah 1:8a (LB)

 “You God [will] welcome us with open arms when we run for cover to you. Spread your protection over them, that all who love your name may be filled with joy. For you bless the godly, O Lord; you surround them with your shield of love” Psalm 5:11-12 (MSG+NLT)
