Time: about 780 B.C. Place: Nineveh and vicinity
Golden Text: “Should not I spare Nineveh, that great city, wherein are more than six score thousand persons that cannot discern between their right and their left hand?” (Jonah 4:11).
Lesson Outline: I. Surprising Reaction – Jonah 4:1-3, II. Necessary Introspection – Jonah 4:4-9, III. Convicting Argument – Jonah 4:10-11
Introduction
One would think that after the great turn-around in Nineveh, Jonah would be thankful for what God had done. Such, however, was not the case. In fact, the revival and turning away of God’s wrath displeased Jonah exceedingly and he was very angry. You would think since Jonah was a prophet of God, he was very much aware of God’s mercy towards His people. Seeing the reactions of the people of Nineveh repenting for their sins should have been something to rejoice over, but Jonah was angry because of God having a change of heart towards the Ninevehites.

Time of Prayer
Heavenly Father we come before You in the name of Jesus, thanking You for Your goodness and mercy. Thank You for allowing us to see another day, a day we’ve never seen before. Thank You for blessing us to have eyes to see. Thank You for when we woke up we were in our homes and not under a bridge or living on the streets. Thank You for blessing us to walk without a cane or a walker, thank You for blessing us to have two legs and feet to stand on. Thank You for Your Son, Jesus, Redeeming us of our sins, thank You because of Jesus our sins has been placed in the sea of forgetfulness. Thank You for being our God, and our Father. Thank You for Your unconditional love, thank You for Your many benefits, and everlasting love.

Time: 1237 B.C. Place: Ephraim
Golden Text ” I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honour; for the Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman” (Judges 4:9).
Introduction
Israel backsliding from God caused them to fall in the hands of a Canaanite King, Jabin of Hazor whose military commander was Sisera. Sisera had nine hundred chariots whereas Israel had untrained foot soldiers with spears, arrows, swords and slings which would not be a comparison to trained soldiers and iron chariots and nine hundred of them. The land had rest eighty years which should have confirmed them in their religion but on the contrary, it made them secure and wanton. When they forsook God, God forsook them then they became an easy prey. The Canaanites had previously been conquered by Joshua and his army who slew and burned the city, but in a process of time, the city was rebuilt, Joshua had died as well Ehud and the Israelites returned to their sins. Israel had been oppressed for twenty years by Jabin and now they begin to cry out to the Lord.
