What If Today Is the Day Your Miracle Begins? | John Giftah | Christian Sermon
Tonight's Episode
In John chapter 2, the Bible records the very first miracle performed by JESUS at the wedding in Cana.When the wine ran out, Mary approached JESUS and informed Him about the problem.
But this raises an interesting question.
Why did Mary go to JESUS in the first place?
At that moment, JESUS had not performed any recorded miracle yet. There was no prior evidence that He would turn water into wine. Yet Mary still approached Him with an expectation.
Was she simply informing Him of the problem — or did she believe that something supernatural could happen?
In this episode of Fuel for the Soul with John Giftah, you will discover a powerful faith lesson from this moment.
Sometimes we reach a place in life where all our natural options are exhausted. We feel like nothing else can be done unless GOD intervenes.
But the message today is simple:
Just because GOD has not done something in your life before does not mean He cannot start today.
What if today is the day GOD begins to move in a new way?
Be encouraged to approach GOD with expectation, believing that He is still able to perform miracles in your life.

Speaker 1: Welcome to Fuel for the Soul with John GIFTA.
Speaker 2: Hey God, Mirischal, is such a joy for me to
Speaker 2: be with you today on this segment of the Field
Speaker 2: for the Soul with John Gift of podcast where I'm
Speaker 2: going to talk to you today on an important aspect
Speaker 2: to look at from the first miracle that Jesus ever
Speaker 2: performed in John chapter two when he turn water into
Speaker 2: wine at the wedding in Cana. Now, this is the
Speaker 2: same passage I spoke to you from yesterday where I
Speaker 2: told you an important lesson. I want you to go
Speaker 2: back and check because I believe that it's a very
Speaker 2: fundamental principle that you need to keep in mind before
Speaker 2: you ever take any initiative in your walk in this life,
Speaker 2: in any area of your life. And today I'm going
Speaker 2: to talk about one important aspect, which is the reason
Speaker 2: why I want to take this passage today. And it
Speaker 2: is worse eleven. It says this miracle is sign at
Speaker 2: Cana in Galilee was the very first time Jesus revealed
Speaker 2: his glory. Okay, now, this is the very first miracle
Speaker 2: Jesus ever performed. Right, Jesus has never performed a miracle before.
Speaker 2: Every other miracle adds something to look back and say,
Speaker 2: Jesus has done this miracle, so maybe he can do
Speaker 2: a miracle in this area. Maybe somebody is getting healed,
Speaker 2: they can say, oh, somebody else got healed, so maybe
Speaker 2: Jesus can heal this person. Or even if Jesus is
Speaker 2: going to perform the very second miracle, they can still say, yes,
Speaker 2: Jesus is done a miracle before, like he turned what
Speaker 2: it into wine, So there was always something to look
Speaker 2: back for every other miracle. But this was the very
Speaker 2: first time Jesus ever performed a miracle. There was no
Speaker 2: other miracle he performed as a human when you walked
Speaker 2: on earth prior to this. So the question I want
Speaker 2: to talk about is when you see that the water, sorry,
Speaker 2: the wine ran out. The Bible says Jesus's mother told
Speaker 2: him they have no more wine. When you look at
Speaker 2: us three. Now think about this for a minute, right now.
Speaker 2: Every other miracle had something to look back and say, Jesus,
Speaker 2: I know you can do miracles. You have done this
Speaker 2: miracle before. Can you do something about it? Every other
Speaker 2: miracle had something to go back to, but this one
Speaker 2: had nothing to go back to because Jesus has never
Speaker 2: performed a miracle before. But my question comes down to
Speaker 2: this that when the wine ran out, why or what
Speaker 2: made Mary to come and tell Jesus that the wine
Speaker 2: ran out. Was it just because she was curious or
Speaker 2: in the sense of like, you know, let's see what
Speaker 2: they're about to do. Or do you think it's just
Speaker 2: because she's trying to like, you know, have this sarcastic
Speaker 2: or like passing commons. You know, they didn't even plan
Speaker 2: this wedding properly, look at this wine the wine has
Speaker 2: run out, or maybe just upset about what happened, like, oh,
Speaker 2: you know, the wine ran out, But can you just
Speaker 2: trying to understand what was going through Mary's mind when
Speaker 2: she told Jesus, Like, do you think she was like
Speaker 2: expecting him to do a miracle or was it because
Speaker 2: he was just passing in information. You get what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: It's an important thing to think about why, because in
Speaker 2: your life you may be saying, John, I know God
Speaker 2: can do miracles. I know God can turn things around.
Speaker 2: He is part of the Red Sea. I know he
Speaker 2: is brought down the walls of Jericho. He has made
Speaker 2: Daniel be safe in alliance. Then he made the three
Speaker 2: Hebrew children to come out safe from the fire. I
Speaker 2: know all of these miracles in the scripture are true.
Speaker 2: I believe it. But in my life right now, I
Speaker 2: know God has taken care of me, has met me
Speaker 2: before in in the normal course of life. But I've
Speaker 2: never seen any wow miracle in my life. And what
Speaker 2: I need right now in my life is a wow miracle.
Speaker 2: Like maybe in some area you need the hand of
Speaker 2: God to do something. Maybe there is some area in
Speaker 2: your life you're saying, you know what, I've extinguished all
Speaker 2: my natural you know, possibilities or natural resources or natural
Speaker 2: you know, like things that I can do in the
Speaker 2: natural right like I distinguished all these possibilities, all these options,
Speaker 2: and I don't have anything else right now. Only a
Speaker 2: miracle from the hand of God can help me. And
Speaker 2: I'm not seeing God do such a miracle in my
Speaker 2: life before. You may be saying that. But yes, the thing,
Speaker 2: if you're saying like you've not seen God do a
Speaker 2: miracle like that before and you're expecting a first time
Speaker 2: wow miracle from God, this is a word for you.
Speaker 2: This is a word for you because I want you
Speaker 2: to understand. You have to think about this. What made
Speaker 2: Mary come and tell Jesus. Was she expecting Jesus to
Speaker 2: do a miracle or not? Now think about this. You
Speaker 2: may be saying right now, I was I extinguished all
Speaker 2: my possibilities and capabilities. You know, I've gone to every
Speaker 2: person who can help me. Right now, I need the
Speaker 2: miracle from God and I've not seen God do a
Speaker 2: miracle like this before. Can I tell you something, It's
Speaker 2: a possibility. When you look at Mary. Maybe Maye knew
Speaker 2: that Jesus was called for greatness because she already knew.
Speaker 2: She saw what happened when Jesus was born, She heard
Speaker 2: what was told of Jesus, you know, like through through
Speaker 2: all the accounts told by the wise men, the shepherds,
Speaker 2: or even when you know, when they brought Jesus to
Speaker 2: the temple to you know, be prayed over the prophet,
Speaker 2: and prophet is who came and prophesied over Jesus and
Speaker 2: told great things about what was going to happen. So
Speaker 2: maybe knew something was in store. Maybe just maybe she
Speaker 2: was working with that expectation each time, saying, maybe today's
Speaker 2: today he is going to do that miracle, or he's
Speaker 2: going to start doing miracles. Maybe today is going to
Speaker 2: be that day when he's going to you know, like
Speaker 2: walk in that new dimension that was prophesied over him,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Like, maybe Mary was constantly
Speaker 2: walking with that expectation and that's why she shared it
Speaker 2: to Jesus, hoping that maybe today he could start doing
Speaker 2: his miracles. I know, he's not done this for so
Speaker 2: many years. I know, he's been like an ordinary person
Speaker 2: for so long, just being a carpenter's son. But maybe
Speaker 2: just maybe today could be that day for him to
Speaker 2: start doing miracles. Maybe she was working with that expectation
Speaker 2: all along. Today, I challenge you, if you're in a miracle,
Speaker 2: desperate situation. You know, instead of saying like, oh, it
Speaker 2: has never happened before, it can never happen. I want
Speaker 2: you to have this attitude that maybe just today can
Speaker 2: be that miracle working day. Maybe today is going to
Speaker 2: be different for you. Maybe today God is going to
Speaker 2: show up differently. Maybe today it's going to be that
Speaker 2: wah moment that you never expected and it's going to
Speaker 2: happen in a way that's going to exceed your expectations.
Speaker 2: So I want you to always expect the unexpected and
Speaker 2: always walk with that attitude of expectation, you know, instead
Speaker 2: of thinking it's never going to happen, it's never going
Speaker 2: to happen, or you know, this is my lot in life.
Speaker 2: Why don't you always like even if you've been disappointed before,
Speaker 2: maybe maybe would have been disappointed that Jesus didn't any
Speaker 2: do any miracle before this. Maybe we don't know, but
Speaker 2: here's the point. Whatever, beit, this is a moment for
Speaker 2: Mary to still come back and say, here's the situation,
Speaker 2: let me see if you're going to do something about it.
Speaker 2: So today my challenge is walk with that kind of
Speaker 2: an expectation with your walk with the Lord always because
Speaker 2: you never know when God is going to do that
Speaker 2: kind of a miracle. Maybe it's not done like that
Speaker 2: before for you. You expected hope and all of that,
Speaker 2: but it does not happen. It's okay, Today's a new day.
Speaker 2: Always have that fresh aspect or a fresh perspective, a
Speaker 2: fresh level of expectation that maybe today God could do
Speaker 2: that in my life. Today, God would do it if
Speaker 2: it is his will, and at any time He could
Speaker 2: suddenly intervene and change the trajectory of my life. If
Speaker 2: you believe it. I want you to share this with
Speaker 2: someone and encourage him today. And men, God bless you.
