Water Into Wine

Who is Jesus… really? In this 7-week series leading up to Easter, we’re walking through the seven signs in the Gospel of John — miracles that don’t just show what Jesus can do, but reveal who He is.

John tells us his purpose clearly: these signs were written so that we may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God — and that by believing, we may have life in His name (John 20:30–31).

‍

This week, we begin with Jesus’ first sign: turning water into wine at a wedding in Cana (John 2). But this miracle is more than saving a celebration. It’s a sign pointing to a new Kingdom.

Stone jars used for ceremonial cleansing.

Water meant for ritual washing.
Jesus doesn’t empty them — He fills them and transforms them.

‍

Cana points to Calvary. The wine foreshadows the blood He would one day shed. What was once impure can be made new. What was once incomplete can be made whole.

‍

At the center of it all is one simple call:
“Do whatever He tells you.”

Belief isn’t just knowledge. It’s obedience.
Small steps of faith. On-the-way trust.
