His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it
(John 2:5).
In John 2:1-11, the Bible tells a remarkable story of the first recorded miracle of the Lord Jesus which took place at a wedding in Cana of Galilee. As the celebration was in full swing, they ran out of wine, a situation that could have been embarrassing for the hosts. Mary, the mother of Jesus, turned to Him for a solution.
Even though the Master said to Mary that His hour had not yet come, Mary gave the servants a profound admonition of faith. She said, “…Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it” (John 2:5). The Lord Jesus then told the servants to fill six large waterpots with water. Without question, they obeyed, filling them to the brim. Then the Master said, “…Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast…” (John 2:8).
Again, without hesitation, they followed His instruction. As the governor tasted it, he marvelled at the exquisite taste of the fine wine, not knowing where it had come from. What was once ordinary water had been turned into the finest wine. This shows the importance of acting on God’s Word.
Another striking example is seen in Matthew 17 where the Lord Jesus instructed Peter to go to the sea, cast a hook, and take the first fish that came up. He told Peter that in its mouth, he’d find a coin that would be enough to pay the tribute the tax collectors had asked for.
Peter didn’t say “Master, that’s impossible.” Rather, without doubting or questioning the logic of such an instruction, he simply acted in faith. And just as the Master had said, there was a coin in the mouth of the first fish Peter caught.
Always act your faith in the Word of God. Don’t try to rationalize divine instructions. God’s Word transcends logic, science, and technology. When the Lord speaks, His Word is final; act on it without hesitation. In His words and instructions lie your miracle, your testimony, your provision, peace, joy and victory. Hallelujah!
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank you for the power of your Word. I choose to act on your instructions without hesitation, knowing that therein lies my miracle, testimony, provision, transformation and blessings. My faith is steadfast in you, and I absolutely trust in you and your unfailing Word, now and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
