Jonah's Prayer of Desperation

Monty Watson

This message is about Jonah’s prayer of desperation. From the belly of a whale, he said, “I called for help from the deep” (Jonah 2:2). At some point, we all pray prayers of desperation. Not normal, everyday prayers, but desperate prayers. Brokenhearted prayers. Life-and-death prayers. Lay-awake-at-night prayers. When we’re in the deep, feeling distress and despair, overwhelmed and desperate for God to help, we can trust that He will hear our prayers.
