There was panic in the house.The guests who turned up were more than what was calculated or the wine intake was more than what was expected.Lack of wine in the house of feast is the most miserable time one host can have. Reputation and everything was at stake. Things went beyond control. Mary knew something that no one else knew.Mary had the knowledge of who Jesus was.The host did not know what Jesus could do, though he invited him. Many a time we are like that host who just invited Christ. Sounding quite similar to people being born and brought up in Christian families. The knowledge of who Jesus is and the knowledge of His power can give us significant breakthroughs in our times of panic.We panic because we do not know the power of Jesus whom we have invited into our homes and hearts. The Jars were within His sight, the water was within His reach.The molecular structure of H20 changed to CH3COOH.Hallelujah
The boat in which the disciples were travelling was many miles away from the shore. To make the matters worse,the wind was against them and the boat was tossed about by the waves. It was a tuff time for the disciples to control the boat.Imagine having a roller coaster ride.The waves were putting the boat up and down. Such a terrifying time. The story doesn’t end there.Hallelujah.You might be facing a problem that is threatening to capsize your marriage your finances your ministry. Praise God your story is not over. The one who made the sea will walk over the sea and come to you. When things go beyond ur control.,its always within His reach.He will not pass you by. He will come to you.
See those fearful disciples,not knowing whom they served,forgot all what the Lord told them.Now that their “rabbi” was dead.They were all “united” and closed the door fearing that the jews may find and kill them.Fear takes you to a place where you lose control.
They could not do anything.The one whom they followed was no more.The master died the most cruelest form of death.All their hopes were shattered.But the story didn’t end there.Through those closed doors came the one whom the world crucified.Jesus rose again and when things went beyond their control,it was always within His reach.
End Note:The persecutions in orissa,the times we are living in are evil.Want to encourage you that when things go beyond your control.The one who saw the Israelites and came down for them will come down for us.He will come and save us.
Yes when things are beyond our control its always within His reach.
