John 4:46 | DiscipleDeck

Bible Commentary

John 4:46

The scene is set for the second miracle in Galilee. John links it to the first Cana miracle — both signs pointing to Jesus' power and identity.

Memory phrase: Jesus came back — and a miracle was waiting.

Talk about it: Why do you think the Gospel records where Jesus had been before? What does that tell us about Jesus' ministry?

Prayer: Jesus, I am waiting for You to come into a situation in my life that needs Your power.
