Rhapsody of Realities August 16th 2025, ACT ON HIS WORD WITHOUT HESITATION

Pastor Chris Oyakhilome DSc DSc DD

His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever he saith unto you, do it (John 2:5).

In John 2:1-11, the Bible tells a remarkable story of the first recorded miracle of the Lord Jesus which took place at a wedding in Cana of Galilee. As the celebration was in full swing, they ran out of wine, a situation that could have been embarrassing for the hosts. Mary, the mother of Jesus, turned to Him for a solution.

Even though the Master said to Mary that His hour had not yet come, Mary gave the servants a profound admonition of faith. She said, “…Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it” (John 2:5). The Lord Jesus then told the servants to fill six large waterpots with water. Without question, they obeyed, filling them to the brim. Then the Master said, “…Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast…” (John 2:8).

Again, without hesitation, they followed His instruction. As the governor tasted it, he marvelled at the exquisite taste of the fine wine, not knowing where it had come from. What was once ordinary water had been turned into the finest wine. This shows the importance of acting on God’s Word.

Another striking example is seen in Matthew 17 where the Lord Jesus instructed Peter to go to the sea, cast a hook, and take the first fish that came up. He told Peter that in its mouth, he’d find a coin that would be enough to pay the tribute the tax collectors had asked for.

Peter didn’t say “Master, that’s impossible.” Rather, without doubting or questioning the logic of such an instruction, he simply acted in faith. And just as the Master had said, there was a coin in the mouth of the first fish Peter caught.

Always act your faith in the Word of God. Don’t try to rationalize divine instructions. God’s Word transcends logic, science, and technology. When the Lord speaks, His Word is final; act on it without hesitation. In His words and instructions lie your miracle, your testimony, your provision, peace, joy and victory. Hallelujah!

PRAYER
*Dear Father, thank you for the power of your Word. I choose to act on your instructions without hesitation, knowing that therein lies my miracle, testimony, provision, transformation and blessings. My faith is steadfast in you, and I absolutely trust in you and your unfailing Word, now and always, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

‭‭John 2:7-11 KJV
Jesus saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And he saith unto them, Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare [it]. 9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not whence it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10 And saith unto him, Every man at the beginning doth set forth good wine; and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse: [but] thou hast kept the good wine until now. 11 This beginning of miracles did Jesus in Cana of Galilee, and manifested forth his glory; and his disciples believed on him.

‭‭Luke 5:5-6 KJV
And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. 6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

‭‭Isaiah 55:10-11 KJV
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it.
