John 2:3-10 Amplified: 3 When the wine was all gone, the mother of Jesus said to Him, “They have no more wine.” 4 Jesus said to her, “[Dear] woman, what is that to you and to Me? My time [to act and to be revealed] has not yet come.” 5 His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He says to you, do it.” 6 Now there were six stone waterpots set there for the Jewish custom of purification (ceremonial washing), containing twenty or thirty gallons each. 7 Jesus said to the servants, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim. 8 Then He said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter [of the banquet].” So they took it to him. 9 And when the headwaiter tasted the water which had turned into wine, not knowing where it came from (though the servants who had drawn the water knew) he called the bridegroom, 10 and said to him, “Everyone else serves his best wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then he serves that which is not so good; but you have kept back the good wine until now.”
Go pass the literal, to receive the miracle!
Prayer: Thank you, God, for giving us the biggest miracle. You loved us so much that you sent your Son Jesus, to die for us and rescue us from hell. I let nothing upset me or get me off walking in love, so my faith can work. I listen to God’s word, shift my focus with expectation of bringing the unseen into the natural. I believe even when I don’t see it. I keep my gaze on Jesus and the word of God, so I will not give up or sink. I cry out to God for help when I start falling into doubt and unbelief. I do not overthink anything good that comes to my mind, but I am obedient to the Holy Spirit and act to receive my miracle. In Jesus’ name! Amen.
