Do Whatever He Says: A Powerful Revelation of John 2Sample

Can I be honest with you? Sometimes, I get caught up thinking I need to do something to make the miracle happen. Maybe you can relate – feeling the pressure to solve every problem, fix every situation, and make everything work out perfectly. But looking at those servants at the wedding in Cana, God showed me something powerful about our true role in His miraculous work.

Let's break down what these servants actually did. They filled water jars. They dipped out water. They carried it to the master of ceremonies. Notice what they didn't do – they didn't turn the water into wine. That was all Jesus.

As servants of God, we have specific roles that help to reveal Jesus to those around us, and it looks much like what the servants did:

- We set up the miracle through our prayers, faith, and obedience

- We reveal the miracle through our testimony and witness

- But we don't perform the miracle – that's God's part

This is where I think many of us get stuck. We feel like everything depends on us, so if we don't make it happen, it won't happen at all. But those servants at the wedding didn't transform anything – they simply obeyed Jesus's instructions and watched Him do what only He could do. Nothing more and nothing less.

When we understand this truth, it takes so much pressure off. We’re not responsible for making the miracle happen; we just need to be faithful in our part of the process. Just like those servants filled the water jars in obedience, we do what God asks of us and trust Him with the results.

Pause and Ponder: What areas of your life are you trying to control instead of serving in obedience and letting God do the miracle?
