READ: JOHN 2:1-12 (NKJV)1. On the third day there was a wedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. 2. Now both Jesus and His disciples were invited to the wedding. 3. And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no wine.” 4. Jesus said to her, “Woman, what does your concern have to do with Me? My hour has not yet come.” 5. His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.”6. Now there were set there six waterpots of stone, according to the manner of purification of the Jews, containing twenty or thirty gallons apiece. 7. Jesus said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” And they filled them up to the brim. 8. And He said to them, “Draw some out now, and take it to the master of the feast.” And they took it. 9. When the master of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and did not know where it came from (but the servants who had drawn the water knew), the master of the feast called the bridegroom.10. And he said to him, “Every man at the beginning sets out the good wine, and when the guests have well drunk, then the inferior. You have kept the good wine until now!”11. This beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory; and His disciples believed in Him.12. After this He went down to Capernaum, He, His mother, His brothers, and His disciples; and they did not stay there many days.

THE MESSAGE:The miracle of turning water into wine was the “beginning of signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee” (verse 11). We are to note that Jesus responded to a request from His beloved mother, Mary. A very important principle in our relationship with Christ is established by what the mother, Mary, told those serving officials. “Whatever He says to you, do it” (verse 5). This is obedience. This important principle is very fundamental in our relationship with God. God desires our obedience built on our love for Him. He requires us to love Him with all our heart, with all our soul, and with all our strength. Love makes us obey Him by keeping His commandments. Jesus said “You are my friends if you do whatsoever, I command you” (John 15:14). For us to know what He commands us to do, we must be close to Him to hear Him. This closeness with the Lord is attained by obediently studying the word of God in faith and in prayer.PRAYER: Dear Lord, take away the stony heart from me and grant me the heart of flesh that will enable me to obey You in everything. Amen.
