Disobeying God is costing you | JONAH 1 BIBLE STUDY WITH ME (SOAP Method) | Kaci Nicole

It's finally time for a new BIBLE STUDY WITH ME series, and this time we will be studying the book of JONAH! Most prophetic books focus on the words of the prophet, but this book is unique in that it is a story about the prophet Jonah himself. This story is sooo much more than a story about a man who gets swallowed up by a big fish, it's a story that craftily causes the reader to examine his or her own heart and ultimately, a story that masterfully reveals to us the character of God and points us to Jesus. In this Jonah chapter 1 Bible Study With Me video, we are covering the historical context, theme, and book structure for the book of Jonah, and jumping right into the story where Jonah is given a call, but disobeys God. There is always a cost when we cling to our own way and disobey God and Jonah chapter 1 presents the question...what is disobeying God costing you? Studying the book of Jonah has seriously left me in awe...I can't wait to dig in with YOU! 🤍

“But Jonah rose to flee to Tarshish from the presence of the Lord. He went down to Joppa and found a ship going to Tarshish. So he paid the fare and went down into it, to go with them to Tarshish, away from the presence of the Lord." | Jonah 1:3

[@kacinicole]

The ways we are going to see God's character revealed through the book of Jonah...seriously incredible. I can't wait to study this book with YOU! 🤍 Grab the Jonah study notes here: kacinicole.com/jonah-bible-study-notes

[@joycevanderes501]

Can you add "paying with Paypal"? I don't have a creditcard 😅

[@jazminereyna746]

To me, what stood out the most was that Jonah's disobedience not only cost him, but those around him. It made me think what storms might I be connected to because of the people I'm in the same boat with? It also made me thankful for God's compassion not only to nonbelievers, but to people of God who DELIBERATELY walk in disobedience because we feel as if our own opinions trump God's will. This ought to make us want to live better. Let God's kindness lead us to repentance!

[@serenityh.]

Jonah going "down, down, down" is also an example of us decreasing so Christ can increase within us (Jn. 3:30). Beautiful study. All glory to God. God bless you, Kaci ☺

[@kacinicole]

Ohhh this is SO good 👏🏼👏🏼

[@TriciaRP]

​@@kacinicoleKaci I am trying to get back to God and never should have gotten out here. Demons are literally trying to kill me. I loved Jonah and WANT RO BE CLEANED.

[@michelled8478]

I love that! I've never thought of it like that.

[@brittneylashaeg.5116]

​@TriciaRP God loves you. Rebuke the enemy. He has already been defeated. Call out to Jesus.

[@michelled8478]

I love the part about the other men on the boat praying to God and recognizing God's presence when the storm stopped. It's so cool to see an example of God using even a believer's disobedience to show himself to non-believers.

[@JoanneSantana95]

Takeaway: Disobedience has a price. It's better to obey sooner than later. Thank you for this study!

[@kacinicole]

I had to re-upload this chapter due to tech issues, so if you already left a comment on the first one I'm so sorry to have lost it! 😭 I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts as we start the study here SOON!

[@WyomingGal64]

What struck me is that he thought he could physically flee God's presence.

[@biancacloete6682]

In the week, I thought about studying Jonah's story and when I saw your notification pop up of a Bible study on Jonah, I immediately knew that this was confirmation☝️🙌 so I am soo excited to study with you all🤍🤍

[@MelainaFugate]

The verse that stuck out to me the most was Jonah 1:15 "so they picked up Jonah and hurled him into the sea, and the seas ceased from its raging." This one stuck out to me because he was fighting God's will this entire time but as soon as he did what God wanted the sea IMMEDIATELY ceased it's raging. I feel as though oftentimes we catch ourselves running from God and then questing why we're facing all of these storms but if we were to just take a minute and follow God's will instead of our will, those storms would cease from their raging.

[@sarahwilliams8857]

I absolutely loved this video!! I’ve never really looked at Jonah this way!! Loved it and can’t wait for the rest of the study 📖 🎉 Note that I took from the story: I think it’s so amazing how even from Jonah disobedience, the sailors came to know Christ. Jonah 1:16 “The Sailors were awestruck by the Lord’s great power and they offered him a sacrifice and vowed to serve Him”

[@bellis7772]

This is my first Bible study ever and I am so excited!!! ⭐

[@palomajackson1021]

So many good takeaways but one of the bigger ones for me was how sun causes us to hide or flee. When I was younger I avoided certain people or situations in order to not feel shame or conviction . I also loved one of your last points about how safety meant the sacrifice of another. Boom, Jesus! So good! So happy you’re doing these again! It made me study my Bible so much more even when you paused the studies for a bit. Congratulations on your baby boy!

[@brooklyn8071]

This was SOO helpful for me!! I love how organized and well thought out this video was; it's truly helping me better understand the Word. Thank you so much!! ♡⭐

[@Esthermarry27]

Hey Kaci God Bless YOU My Dear Sister In Christ.. He reigns his word and forever Forevermore 🔥🔥💚🙏🏼😭

[@kacinicole]

Amen and AMEN! 👏🏼

[@jenniferhernandez9307]

I AM SO EXCITED FOR THIS BIBLE STUDY SERIES. This is only chapter 1 and it spoke to me so much. THANK YOU KACI AND THANK YOU JESUS! 🤍

[@bossmass1668]

..Jesus said; "If u love Me keep My Commandments", so read this; We have to obey God's Ten Commandments, and keep the Sabbath Day Holy, not Sunday (day) but Sabbath Day on Saturday it's on the Seventh Day of the week amen amen and amen ❤. The Sabbath Day for the people of God, so if you not belong to God then you don't need to keep the Sabbath Day Holy...

[@LightSeekers777]

Yes, many people don't realize that when God tells His people Sabbath is a SIGN between you and me FOREVER, that the word SIGN can also be translated MARK. That means God's MARK on us is the Sabbath covenant for when to buy sell and trade. If we take another mark, that an enemy made up, we are NOT obeying God.

[@ceinwenmt9874]

wow I look up to how generous and willing to serve God you are, everything you do perfectly shows how good God is. Thank you for putting in so much effort to share God’s word, your videos have helped me grow my faith in so many ways, love this family we’re in xx

[@charlz4321]

This is so beautiful! And you are amazing! Stay blessed and thank you for sharing!

[@kacinicole]

Thank YOU so much for joining along for the study! 🙌🏼

[@hazelsnickles]

We just got done doing the book of Jonah in our Bible study. So much in this book!! That's exactly how I did my study, chapter and verse. We just wrapped up Nahun after finishing Jonah. I will definately follow your Bible study.

[@matthewzuleta4066]

I love these bible studys

[@ainsleys.9676]

So happy to see you doing another in depth bible study! I am so thankful for all your knowledge and hard work and have already been so blessed by it!

[@katherinestatham3056]

YAYYY!!! I’m so excited about this. You seriously are the best teacher 💗💗💗

[@JoseAGarciaJr]

Thank you sister for all you do. I am on my own Bible study path and love how you present everything in such great detail! Thank you again!

[@tiffanysquire3838]

Oh I am so glad you have uploaded a new study. I have been trying to do it on my own but truly enjoy studying with your bible studies.

[@lisar2135]

God bless you Kaci and thank you for this great study and all the time and hardwork you put into this ⭐❤🙏🏾

[@chasityaustin2910]

Thank you for all the time and focus you put into sharing God’s Word! ❤

[@vosteen25]

This was the best Bible study video I've ever seen! God bless 🤍

[@samanthagraciam]

I'm so grateful for you & what God's doing through your life, Kaci! Thank you so much for helping all of us grow and continually enjoy our walk with the Lord. This is a sweet encouragement to choose obedience to God today (for me now it means to put down all my desires, surrender it all to God as I pick up the cross of obedience & choose to follow Him again). Thank you!❤

[@karenc.8622]

AMAZING!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️ I purchased the study bundle and I’m really enjoying this study. Thank you so much! My takeaway from chapter one is that it is impossible to flee God’s presence. I’m going to spend time reflecting on this idea of disobedience and sin because as you said partial obedience is really disobedience/sin. God bless! 🙏🏽💛

[@paul-wg4ts]

i enjoyed that , well done 👏

[@kacinicole]

I'm so glad! 😊

[@chelseagelber1979]

Wow!!! I’m so glad I finally had time to do this🤯. 🐳. May God bless you, this ministry, your marriage to Tyler and in motherhood with baby Lion cub, Judah!!! This is mind blowing!

[@johannemontvgue702]

This was amazing as always Kaci ❤ I learn so much from these

[@stacyanderson6215]

This was amazing thank you so much! Ive been wanting to study the Bible more and understand but I was clueless thank you for these videos and your teaching! 🩷

[@tanyagri5]

Great great bible study. Thank you!

[@rnspamela]

so glad I discovered your bible studies! This is sooo good!!

[@kamaluvivian4128]

Thank you soo much

[@megan.221]

Jonah only disobeyed God once though, not many times, that's why God had grace and mercy on the situation because there was still a chance for Jonah to continue the assignment-- Jonah didn't forfeit it. This video convicts me because I disobeyed God recently on 3 occasions where on each occasion I did not obey God's instruction and therefore I have finally forfeited my kingdom assignment-- I did receive grace for the previous occasions but I disobeyed God again after that and therefore God has recently said I've forfeited it😔

I'm late to the study, BUT I love your lock screens. They are awesome and fit my phone perfectly. I've downloaded other verse lock screens and wallpaper and when I set them, the verse is zoomed so much that it doesn't completely fit. Yours worked out perfectly!

[@JhorJule]

[@bettyblevins8085]

Just found you channel. Enjoyed Parat 1 of Jonah. Can't wait to do the rest. Looking at my Bible it says the author was Jonah. Our minister said the same thing when he did a sermon on Jonah earlier this year.

[@danaj1649]

I appreciate you keeping these free. They're so helpful and if you charged for them I probably couldn't participate ❤❤❤

[@j.l.w9563]

I had a strong feeling of the same sorts of insights when I did communion today and was sort of drawn to this video through a few different things. Can't say I hundred percent know. I do want to have more biblical knowledge though. I have felt this for a while even though it is not massively logical to me. Other areas this might apply do seem to have me consciously going to the darkness rather than taking the easy route out and avoiding it.

[@HendriSupradi]

Amen.

[@vanessan2270]

I just found your bible study. Thank you. ❤

[@selenagomez12358]

Very thought provoking, Kaci. I am taking this lesson to heart. I always disliked the story of Jonah I thought he was an idiot, fool disobeying God. My friends chose Priscilla Shirers study on Jonah, An Interrupted Life. It was eye opening for me then. God's living Word is again speaking to me in this lesson. I will be praying. I don't want to pay the price of going down, down, down away from God's will... like a fool. I want my husband and I to follow the Lord's calling as pastor and wife. Thank you for your faith, insight and teaching, my young sister in Christ. Blessings and love. ❤

Please please please do BOOK OF JOHN. I am trying to really learn and go through the bible and I learn it best the way you teach it! I watch the bible project to get a good understanding and a basic overview then you read with us and explain it step by step and I am able to retain it and refer back to my notes that I write down with your guidance. 🙂

Praise God. I always enjoy watching all your videos Kaci. Thank you so much. I love Jesus so much but I’ve been like Jonah, running away from God’s plan for my life ( the maternity) 😢 I don’t feel like having a baby I don’t see myself as a mother I feel insecure, scared about it and so scared to have a child so I keep running from it. God have mercy and help me. Kaci, Before you had your baby how did you feel about been a mum? Were you scared? God bless you my sister in Christ 🙏💕🌸

[@frankath52]

⭐ (I just figured out how to do the star, but I did do the study last week.)

[@kacinicole]

Yay, so glad!!

[@michellesanchez9]

Hey Kaci, I am an online subscriber and I have to say this was definitely spirit led, as I just started reading Jonah... It's scary (the good kind which gives you goosebumps) but amazing how God just so orchestrates themes and messages to speak to us. He is such a close and good God. Thank you for sharing 🙏✝️💛 I ask that you please keep me in prayer.

[@227veronique]

Hello Kaci, great bible study as always, it encourages me in studying my bible more :) I would like to ask you what font you are using when writing the truths about God ("God is rich in mercy toward those...etc)"

Thank you. I think I really need to take a look at myself. I feel I have distanced myself without realizing it. I need to pray why?

[@zejewelzstanley]

Hello, Im trying to catch up. I have the Macarthur Study Bible and I find another bit of irony here. The people of Nineveh (derived from Nimrod, Akkadian for "fish") worshipped the fish goddess Nanshe and Dagon and here Jonah at the end of the chapter gets swallowed by a fish right unto the belly of it. It seems like one way or another God was telling Jonah to get into the belly of what he was called to do, perhaps as a symbol to him? Thought that was an interesting tidbit. Thank you for these studies.

[@IloveJesusyuhhhhhh]

6:41 In the New Testament Jesus talks about Jonah too😊

[@michelebcombs5016]

I found your channel because I searched for an audio because I'm in a women's prayer group and we're reading Jonah now. Thanks. What I got today is sin cost you. In obedience what am I doing or not doing and what is it going to cost me?

[@mellaniamatondo]

Nahum 3:1-7 elaborates on Nineveh's downfall why God the Lord of Armies was so upset with it. I would encourage you to read it as part of this study. thank you @Kacinicole
