The unexpected happened in the marriage house at CANA.Mary said it literally to Jesus.."THEY HAVE NO WINE".Its absolutely NO wine.Many a time the unexpected happens when we have the "NO" taking its predominance.NO JOB,NO MONEY,NO PEACE...but when the Lord's presence is there..we can say.."HE IS THERE".
I dont care about these NO'es when "HE IS THERE".Mary asked the people in charge to "DO whatever HE Tells you".YES HE.Mary still points her finger to us telling "not me".."HE"....He can do something new when the UNEXPECTED strikes..The master's eyes fell on those stone jars kept in the frontyard..He did not run to the place I call as KITCHEN..but straight in the front was the miracle..Deliverance and miracle came from the unexpected place when the people there obeyed the voice of the Lord!!!The water turned to sweet wine..we read Jesus manifested His glory..many a time when God does something our lives manifest external fashionable things,wealth power,Job importance..rather than HIS GLORY!!what is it that is manifested from us??Is it His glory or our jobs,money,health,external beauty increasing mechanisms??Its dangerous ..be careful!!!
WHen the israelites came to the waters of marah,they, with all expectations started to drink when the unexpected happened..the waters were bitter,they could not drink it.God showed Moses a piece of wood..He asked him to throw it into the water.The water became sweet.Remember in the same place where you found bitterness God will cause you to drink sweet water.The Lord did not create "that piece of wood" all of a sudden..when people of God face bitter situations remember God has ordained a way of escape and provision also!!We should look up and see the way of escape.
Remember when the unexpected strikes you God will open a way from unexpected place in an unexpected manner..but remember to give HIm glory and honor
