| John 2 | Please Read The Scriptural Account of the Wedding in Cana of Galilee: John 2 1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee; and the mother of Jesus was there: 2 And both Jesus was called, and his disciples, to the marriage. 3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine. 4 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. 5 His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it. 6 And there were set there six waterpots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins apiece. 7 Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. 9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: but thou hast kept the good wine until now. 11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him. 12 After this he went down to Capernaum, he, and his mother, and his brethren, and his disciples: and they continued there not many days. |
>>The theme of this is that God put it upon Mary's heart, yes, Mary's heart!... to ask for this need to be supplied... It came from God first.... God puts things upon our hearts that he puts nowhere else. Then it's our work to believe Jesus is Anointed of God and to put our trust in God. Don't waste time looking to perform "good" ideas by the power of the flesh when you belong to Jesus. Good ideas come form God, so brighten up, agree with Him and tell him so, believe in him, and let Him be Lord! Amen.>> It WAS Mary's concern. Yet, she had no available physical resource. (Actually I don't think she even bothered to look to another physical resource, her faith didn't direct her that way.) But just as sure as seeing a stash of new vino in the closet she turned to the supernatural... naturally. She believed in Jesus Christ. God wanted her to have the wine, THIS she knew... it was the duty of her abundant heart... and that's God's domain, his Spirit is written all in it... Jesus didn't say no, something in his reply actually provoked her faith! ... "Yes" said she, "It is my concern ... and your my Lord and provider." said her actions; by faith. Luke 1:28 And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women. John 2:11 "....This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee."
