FaceTime In Intercession And Obedience

Our intercession and obedience to the Word will get Jesus involved in our daily lives to face Time that is not yet.

“Dear woman, why do you involve me?”  Jesus replied. “My time has not yet come (John 2:4).”

Jesus, his mother Mary and his disciples were invited to a wedding at Cana.  At the wedding, Mary noticed the wine was finished and informed Jesus about the lack.  Jesus told her his time has not yet come.  Regardless, Mary told the servants to do whatever Jesus tells them to do.  Jesus instructed the servants to fill the jars with water, so they filled the jars which were used for ceremonial cleansing with water.  Then he instructed them to draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.  They did what Jesus told them to do without any questions.  The master tasted the water that turned into wine and was surprised.

Mary’s intercession on behalf of their host and the obedience of the servants changed the time that was not yet to a now time.  A time of lack, a time of panic, and a time of embarrassment at the wedding were turned into continued joyful celebration.  

What is the lack that is causing you to panic?  Are you worried about potential embarrassment?  Inform Jesus in prayer and get him involved.  Then, wait and listen to him, and obey His word one step at a time.  Our prayer and obedience enable Jesus to manifest His glory.

Let us face Time that is not yet with intercession and obedience and see Jesus at work.

Fill your mind with the word,

Draw it out in faith and

Taste and see that the Lord is good.
