“So then faith cometh by hearing,
and hearing by the Word of God”
Romans 10:17.
Jesus told them to fill up the water
pots and when they did what Jesus
said then the miracle was released.
You and I must find a word in the
Scripture that covers our need and
stand on it until the provision comes.
thou hast kept the good wine until

When Mary, the mother of Jesus, said
“Whatsoever he saith unto you do
it,” then I think that we can examine
what Jesus said before the water
became wine to help us understand
how supenat-ural provision is released
for me and you.
Recently, I received an e-mail from a
person who was in great need. It
was only two paragraphs long. The
first paragraph said, “My money
is not enough to cover my need.”
They went on to explain how it was
affecting them and the tremendous
pressure that they were under. The 1st word Jesus spoke was “FILL.”

water pots and He would take what
they had and turn it into what they
needed.
Here is where the servants
cooperated with the miracle of
provision. God performs miracles
through men and women who
believe His Word. The book of Acts
tells us how God worked through the
natural efforts of the Apostles: “And
by the hands of the apostles were
many signs and wonders wrought
among the people” Acts 5:12.
God works miracles through the lives
of those who will believe Him.
When the servants came to the
governor of the feast, he said, “Every
man at the beginning doth set forth
good wine; and when men have well
