2 Personal Take-Aways:
1. It's always better to be in Nineveh with God than on a boat to Tarshish without Him!
2. Surrender always comes before Salvation!

How do you get to the place where you just say no to God and go in the opposite direction?
The Sovereign Lord has sworn this by his holiness:
“The time will come when you will be led away
with hooks in your noses.
Every last one of you will be dragged away
like a fish on a hook!
~ Amos 4:2

~ It's a subtle slide away from God.
~ It starts with small disobedience - it ends in total spiritual disaster.

If you want to run from God, there will always be a ship ready to go to Tarshish.
