And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee. And the mother of Jesus was there. And Jesus and His disciples were both invited to the marriage. And when they lacked wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, They have no wine. Jesus said to her, Woman, what do I have to do with you? My hour has not yet come. His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, do it.- John 2:1-5
Fellow Faith Believers,
Do you need a miracle? Reread the story of Jesus turning water into wine. Notice what Mary said to the attendants at the wedding reception: "Do whatever [Jesus] tells you."
- Do it even though: You're not in the right place. They were at a wedding, not a church when Jesus performed this miracle. Some of our greatest blessings will be at "other places," if we'll just be sensitive and obedient to GOD.
- Do it even though: You've got a lot of problems. They'd run out of wine for their guests. How embarrassing. Too often our problems drive us away from Jesus instead of to Him. Miracles begin when we focus on GOD's power, instead of our problems.
- Do it even though: You're not being encouraged. When Mary turned to Jesus for help, He tested her faith, saying, "Dear woman, that's not our problem," Jesus replied. "My time has not yet come." But she didn’t let that stop her. Instead of being discouraged, Mary laid hold of the possibility of a miracle, believed GOD, and received one.
- Do it even though: You haven't walked with Christ very long. The servants who obeyed Jesus had just met Him. And His disciples had just started following Him. Yet they were all expected to obey Him. So are you.
- Do it even though: You haven't yet seen Him work miracles in your life. This was Jesus' first miracle. They had to obey Him without the faith that comes from a previous track record. That's always challenging!
- Do it even though: You don't understand the process. Why pour water into empty containers? Answer: give Jesus, what you've got and He'll give you back what you need. That's how to experience the miraculous!

They who have ears, ought to hear.
Hear what GOD, Our Father says:
My Child,
Trust in My Word, and be obedient to the things I Speak to you.
I Promised to deliver.
And I Will.
Do not be moved by what you see. It does not matter what the doctor says. It does not matter what the banker says. It does not matter what your situation looks like. MY WORD is true. ALL My Promises are 'Yes & Amen.'
Anything that speaks against My Promises is a lie, and you must not believe it. Allow Me to bring it all to pass. Your job, Child, is to be obedient and stand firm on the sure foundation of My Word. Then speak by faith, I AM HEALED. I AM BLESSED. I AM DELIVERED. I HAVE THE FAVOR OF THE LORD UPON MY LIFE.
This day, lift up your voice and be thankful for breakthroughs in every area of your life. Meditate on My Promises to you, day and night. Do it even though you may not feel like it. Be obedient, and do it. Offer a sacrifice of praise and thanksgiving; in the midst of your tribulations, and it will strengthen your faith.
Yes, I Want your praise; for I Inhabit the praises of My people.
Praise Me, even though your heart may be broken. Proclaim your healing, even though the pain in your body dictates that you aren’t healed. Lay your problems on the altar this day; and even though you cannot see how you’re going to make it - shout GLORY HALLELUJAH! Do it for Me. Do it for you. For when you fill your mouth with praise and thanksgiving, you are telling Me, by faith, that it is done.
Be obedient.
This day.
And do it for Me.
And, in turn, for you.
READ AND MEDITATE ON GOD'S WORD
