Sweetness and Refreshment.

Text: John 2:2-3 (KJV)

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.

 There is always a tendency for a shortage, scarcity, or even dryness on our daily experience, which usually does not have any timetable. But it will surprise you to know that your purpose in destiny can determine your type of challenge.  We can see from the illustration text, Jesus and His disciples were invited to a wedding, and at that wedding, the wine finished. Can you imagine, in the presence of our great Saviour that wine finished?  At this point, Mary did not see Jesus as her son, but She said to the servants, “whatever He tells you to do, do it”. Isaiah 1:19-If ye be willing and obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land. Jesus transformed that tasteless, colourless water, which was present to prove His God nature.

The truth is, there is still a gift in every one of us no matter the current challenge.   Who would have thought that “water” which is tasteless and colourless, would have been the source of transformation and a miracle? Hmmmm.  So I urge every one of us not to commonize the source of our transformation or even to get over-familiar with the source of the instruction. Just invite Jesus and obey the instruction. 1 Samuel 15:22b- Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. The amazing part is that the wine which was transformed by Jesus was even the best at last than the original one. Relax, there is still best in you no matter the challenge and scarcity in Jesus name.

PRAYER POINT.

1. Oh Lord, may our reserved wine show up, as we enjoy the sweeter part, in Jesus name.

ACTION QUOTE: Friends, that challenge is not the end of life.
