60 Jesus Changes Water into Wine [John 2:1–11]
The Bible passage: [John 2:1–11]
The Story:
A wedding took place in Cana of Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there, and Jesus and His disciples were also invited to the wedding.
When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother told Him, “They don’t have any more wine.”
“What does that have to do with Me?” Jesus asked. “My time has not yet come.”
His mother told the servants, “Do whatever He tells you.”
There were six stone water jars sitting there. Each could hold 20 or 30 gallons.
Jesus told them, “Fill the jars with water.” The servants filled them to the brim.
Then He said to them, “Draw some out and take it to the head servant.” They did.
When the head servant tasted the water that had been turned to wine, he wondered where it came from. He called the groom and told him, “Everybody puts out the best wine first, then, after people have gotten a little drunk, they bring out the cheap wine. You have saved the best wine until now.”
The Lessons:
- This was the first of many miracles that Jesus performed. This helped his followers understand who He really was, by showing His control over His creation.
