In Jonah 3 we witness a prophet who once ran from God now walking boldly into the heart of a violent empire, armed only with an eight-word message of judgment. What changed? The passage shows us that divine affliction mixed with mercy creates humble, teachable servants ready to obey. God's grace doesn't pamper us—it prepares us. When we receive restoration, we're not set on the sidelines but re-enlisted for kingdom work.
