Pray that we would minister out of a sense of compassion and timing
That we would entrust ourselves thoroughly to God and not the ideas and dealings of men

Jesus attended a wedding 3 days into His pubic ministry 1
He was known to have disciples 2
He had apparently performed some miracle of provision for His mother prior to this time 3
He was trying to be discrete with the use of miracles and use them with a sense of timing 4
His mother had great confidence in Him and that He would honor her request 5
Jesus honored Mary’s request even though the timing was wrong 7
He turned this seemingly mistimed favor into a full-blown sign 8-11
He chose the time when He would begin to reveal Himself 11
His signs were meant to manifest His glory and cause His disciples to believe 11
Jesus observed the religious holidays 13
He violently attacked spiritual malpractices in the Temple 14-16
His disciples recognized He was fulfilling scripture in His personage 17
His authority was challenged by the Jews 18
He was intentionally vague in His defense 19-22
He left clues for His disciples to help them understand the resurrection, the Scriptures, and His words 22
His words are as important as the rest of Scripture 22
He caused many to believe in Him by His signs 23
He didn’t entrust Himself men because He knew the character of men 24
He didn’t need someone to teach Him because He intuitively knew the character of man 25
