John 2:1-11(Living Bible)
[1]Two days later Jesus’ mother was a guest at a wedding in the village of Cana in Galilee,
[2]and Jesus and his disciples were invited too.
[3]The wine supply ran out during the festivities, and Jesus’ mother came to him with the problem.
[4]“I can’t help you now,” he said.“It isn’t yet my time for miracles.”
[5]But his mother told the servants, “Do whatever he tells you to.”
[6]Six stone waterpots were standing there; they were used for Jewish ceremonial purposes and held perhaps twenty to thirty gallons each.
7 Then Jesus told the servants to fill them to the brim with water. When this was done he said, “Dip some out and take it to the master of ceremonies.”
[9]When the master of ceremonies tasted the water that was now wine, not knowing where it had come from (though, of course, the servants did), he called the bridegroom over.
[10]“This is wonderful stuff!” he said. “You’re different from most. Usually a host uses the best wine first, and afterwards, when everyone is full and doesn’t care, then he brings out the less expensive brands. But you have kept the best for the last!”
[11]This miracle at Cana in Galilee was Jesus’ first public demonstration of his heaven-sent power. And his disciples believed that he really was the Messiah.
A wedding day is usually a busy time for those involved. When food or drinks run out, the first people to get worried are those serving. So, it must have been annoying to the servants when Jesus said they should fill six big pots with water. Each of those pots would take about 20 gallons. Remember that the servants did but know Jesus, they could have laughed at Him and gone off to look for more wine, but they obeyed and got a miracle.
When God gives instructions via His word, you shouldn't try to rationalize it with your mind, it may not make sense to the physical mind but it will always make spiritual sense.
If the servants had rejected the instructions they would have missed the miracle.
Put the word to work today and you will see mind-blowing miracles happen in your life.
The word of God works wonders.
Lord please help me to be sensitive to your instructions at all time.
