Salvation Belongs To The Lord

In Jonah 2, we find the runaway prophet in the belly of the fish, but the surprising thing is this: he is not mainly begging to get out, he is giving thanks because God has already rescued him from death. This sermon traces Jonah's prayer from the depths, showing how the Lord brings wandering sinners low, teaches them to cry out again, strips away false refuges, and leads them to confess, "Salvation belongs to the LORD." Most of all, we see how Jonah points us to the Greater Jonah, the Lord Jesus Christ, who went down into death for sinners and rose again, so that all who look to Him may say, "The LORD is my salvation."
