John 2:5. “His mother saith unto the servants, ‘Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it.’”
HE SAITH. Words of power may not always be many Authority is not always loud or verbose Calm commands – even out of the ordinary Cause a response without questions to pose Clearly spoken explanations said but once Are understood even though unusual they are What may not always to me make sense When coming from the Lord I dare not ignore.
Words spoken by the Lord have changed everything It was by His word all things came to exist How foolish it would be on me to hesitate to bring Some water to fill pots when by Him all things consist When He tells me to go make disciples in all the nations Why ever would I hold back except for stubborn self-will Those servants did just what He said to meet the situation And blessing came to many when they simply pots did fill.
I read that faithful men should be taught by those who are older So who am I to say that I can wait a few more years I look at younger men who are ready for burdens to shoulder They need help along the way from those with experience to share May God in grace enable me to be a help to those who serve By passing on a few things I’ve learned when my Lord I obey They in turn may be a benefit to take what truth they have And people in some other place, God will save through what they say.
“O God, I know there have been times I have hesitated to obey a command of Thine because of a feeling of inadequacy. I confess that I think I have to meet some kind of man-made qualification to be able to pass on what I have received. O Father, some men will be here in a little while to study and they have a genuine desire to learn. Please fill me with the truths they need to hear that I may pass on to them some help for the work they will be doing in days to come. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
