The Power of Desire

In John 2, Yahshua performs His first recorded miracle: "And when they wanted wine, the mother of Yahshua saith unto Him, They have no wine. Yahshua saith unto her, Woman, What have I to do with thee? mine hour is not yet come. His mother saith unto the servants, Whatsoever He saith unto you, do it....Yahshua saith unto them, Fill the waterpots with water. And they filled them up to the brim." Miraculously, the water was turned to wine, and not just any wine but the best wine. Ask yourself, "What happened?" The servants fill the pots with water and they draw out the best wine. When did Yahshua ask for the miracle? When did He pray for it? When did He command anything to happen? The only logical conclusion is that His desire was sufficient to bring about the molecular alteration of the water to wine. Someone might suggest that the words were left from the text; however, that makes no sense. The words of Yahshua are very powerful and were not likely to be disregarded, especially when they were the instrument of a miracle. The truth is that Yahshua's desire was sufficient to bring about an interruption of the natural laws in existence. He desired the water to made wine and it happened.

This is not an isolated incident. Consider John 11. Yahshua has come to Bethany after hearing the news of His sick friend Lazarus. Lazarus has died and in verse 41 Yahshua says: "Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Yahshua lifted up His eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me." Heard what? Yahshua has not spoken anything to the Father about raising Lazarus from the dead. However, it would be logical to infer that Yahshua desired him to be resurrected. It was the thoughts of desire that the Father heard. He responded to that desire and a miracle occurred.

Yahshua said in John 14:12: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father." The Father hears our desires. Greater works shall we do and that includes those things that we desire. Psalm 37:4 says: "Delight thyself also in Yahweh; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart." Since we will receive the desires of our heart when we delight in Yahweh, we should be careful about what we desire. Our desires will attract the reality of those desires. This is not "The Law of Attraction." This is the law of the Scriptures,i.e. when we meet the conditions of delight in Yahweh. Your desires are powerful. They are heard. They will manifest in reality. They can alter the reality of yourself and others. Are you thirsty for the best wine yet?
