LESSON FOR WEEK (June 11 - June 17)
TOPIC:
What Ever Jesus said to do; do it!
Scriptures Related To The Topic:
John 2: 3 - 10
: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.
Jesus gave examples of what to do; and when. Look at what his mother said to him. Seeing a situation; she went to Jesus and told him about it; they have not wine. Now look at Jesus response. What have I to do with thee; mine hour is not yet come. In other words; you are asking me to do something about a situation because you are concerned. It's not my time to act. What that tells us? When we live by the word of God, we act, when He tells us to act. Just because someone tells us to do something at a certain time, doesn't mean it's time to act on it. Let Jesus tells us when to act. When the time was right; Jesus told the servants to fill the pots with water. Now, water, in no way, has anything to do with wine. But, what it shows is, don't worry about what's being done, or, what's being used; just do what Jesus say do. The servants didn't question Jesus; they didn't say; Water? you want the pots filled with water; when wine is what's needed. They just did what they were told to do. Not only did they draw out wine; it was the best at the feast. I don't need to cite any particulars; you know of things you've done, because someone asked you; thinking it was the right thing to do. I don't care what it is; let the Spirit guide you. Do that and things will work out fine; even excellent.
First, look at the mother; after telling Jesus of the situation, and got His response; she told the servants to do whatever He asked, and went her way, leaving it in his hands. She wasn't worried, she knew Jesus would take care of the matter. This is how we should handle things when we go to Jesus. We have a problem; we go to Jesus for help with it; we leave it in his hands. At the time we ask, it may not be the time for Jesus to respond; or take care of it. We have to have the faith to know, when the time is right; Jesus will take care of what we asked Him to do. Just remember, if you want things to work out for you: do what Jesus say do. He tells up plainly in His Holy Word.
