Sermon
The Silent Sovereignty of God
By Tim Keller
Sermon
Your Own Grace
Tim Keller | August 19, 1990
Overview
How did Jonah, who was in utter despair, fear, and rebellion, come to be in a position of triumphant faith by the end of his prayer?
Faith is not a talent. Faith is being controlled by the promises of God instead of your own impressions. If we look at the phenomenon of Jonah’s prayer itself, we will find how we too can respond to any situation in faith and come up through the waves and breakers onto dry land.
Jonah exercised his faith in three stages: 1) he calls, 2) he remembers, and 3) he commits or sacrifices.
