Listen from:
“Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it” (John 2:5).
This was the instruction from the mother of Jesus to the servants at the wedding feast. How often we want to understand something before we do what the Lord tells us. Here it was simple obedience that was important. We may hesitate because there is a question within ourselves whether we have understood Him properly (see Acts 9:13-17). But once it is clear, there is only one path for faith—pure, simple obedience, leaving the results with Him. The servants might have thought it quite futile to fill those containers with that much water when what they needed was wine. However, they obeyed and took it to the governor of the feast. The result was sweeter—better—than anyone could have imagined.
“If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them” (John 13:17).
