Do What the Lord Tells You to Do

“His mother saith unto the servants, whatsoever He saith unto you, do it.” (John 2:5)

The servants at the wedding could not turn water into wine, but they could fill six waterpots with water. It is very much like the raising of Lazarus who had been dead and in the grave four days. Jesus told those at Lazarus’ grave, “Take ye away the stone.” (John 11:39) Jesus could have taken away the stone, but would not. They would have raised the dead, but could not.

Do you want a happy home? Hear the advice given to the servants at the wedding in Cana of Galilee. Whatever He says unto you concerning your home, do it. Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church, giving Himself for it. Wives, be in subjection to your own husband. And ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath, but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Children, obey your parents and honor thy father and thy mother. The path to an unhappy home and ultimately to a divorce is to not heed the things he says concerning your home.

“Whatsoever He says to you, do it,” is good advice on any subject from repentance, to Bible reading, to prayer, to witnessing, to church attendance, giving, honesty, and a host of other subjects that affect your life.
