And let's just go ahead and bless this tonight and we'll just jump right into the word Heavenly Father.

We just thank you for this opportunity to be in your presence.

We thank you that you've met us in this room.

And we thank you for what we felt already.

And God, we praise you and bless this work tonight.

Give you all the praise, the honor, and the glory.

In Jesus, precious name and everybody said, amen.

Amen.

If I could just for a few minutes tonight.

I want to preach on the thought here, and now he has any of this, any better?

Whenever I know some of you, it's been a long time since you've been in school, but this does anybody, remember those school days first thing in the morning, when your teacher would go around and say your name?

And she would say, if you hear your name, say hear

You every morning, you would do roll call, and you would go through.

And she would say, if you're here, say I'm here, I in, if I done that tonight and I ask you that very same question.

If I said, how many of you would say that you're here tonight.

Just raise your hand.

Hopefully we get a hundred percent participation in that that would be really weird because but how many understand I'll just raise our hand that we're here tonight.

Unfortunately, some of you won't be here long and I know you're like oh preacher.

What are you preaching death now?

I'm not talking about that.

But what I am saying, you will be here physically, but how many knows your mind your attention?

Mason be somewhere else.

In this moment.

You are here, you're taught were talking back and forth.

You're my, I've got you at this moment, but in a few moments, in a few minutes, some of you were going to check out.

This is a fact.

Some of you are going to hear me talkin and not get a word that I'm saying.

Some of you, some of you were going to be here physically, but your mind in your attention is going to be somewhere, totally different.

How many knows you're here now, but here in a few minutes, you're going to get a text on your phone.

Your phone's going to vibrate, you're going to pick it up and you're going to be gone for the rest of the service.

How many know what I'm talkin about?

Having else here in a minute.

You're going to get this incredible urge because you haven't found out what's going on on Facebook and my 7 minutes and you're going to get the urge to swipe up and check your news feed in the middle of my sermon.

I ain't really preaching yet, but I mean, if it hits you whatever, but I bet he'll know what I'm talking about here in a minute that you're chasing.

Something with your mind, all of a sudden like you're in a different place, some other Josh, you're thinking already tomorrow.

I what am I going to do?

When 7 drivers calling?

You don't sound like you're, you're already pre-planning for what?

Hasn't even taken place yet.

You're like, I just got to be prepared, get out.

I ain't selfish.

So you're thinking about that, and it's some of your thinking about all that you have to do.

Maybe some of you, you broke your neck to get to church tonight.

You got a lot to do when you get home tonight, maybe some of you have a busy work day tomorrow, maybe or who knows.

Maybe you're thinking about where you're going to eat?

Maybe you're hungry tonight.

Maybe you're worried about some test that you got to take.

Maybe maybe you got some bills coming due.

Maybe maybe you're just being distracted by the person next to you.

That happens a lot.

I'm praying for you, Josh.

I understand and listen to hear something.

In fact, all of you are a tenant at this moment, but within a 10 or 15 minutes fan, since there's going to be some things that hinder that connection.

There's going to be some things that get in the way and I want to go on record right now and say that I'm glad you're here now, but some of you won't be for long and but I want to talk a little bit about the here and the now, and I want to go to John Chapter 2 and we won't read my scripture there.

We're going to jump to around a little bit tonight, but John Chapter 2, we see in the text.

That Jesus is performing his first miracle at the wedding of Cana and it's kind of embarrassing story for the host.

Because how many knows it was a big deal to get the host, the wedding party, and you had friends and relatives coming.

And if you wanted to put your best foot forward, and all of a sudden this wedding, the host of the Paw.

Does the absolute worst thing ever is?

He runs out of wine in the middle of the wedding?

And so there's this huge issue, but fortunately for the the host of this wedding you have some incredible guests on board that are going to be able to help you really pull this off in a dramatic fashion knows that Mary had probably been wanting to pull this.

My son is Jesus card for a long time.

You know, I'm saying like like sleeping like in her back pocket.

She been waiting on her time to shine, you know the saying like if she knew she had the Son of God, she knew he had a he was the savior of the world and all of a sudden this embarrassing moment for the whole state.

And Sophie Jesus tells us servants, and many of, you know, the story.

And he feels 6, massive jars of water.

And and when you look at these pots, they're 20 to 30, gallons a piece.

These are not little pots.

These are Big pots and probably stand about, yay, high.

And he said that they get these six message are stealing up with water and saw the servants done that and they drew out what was in the jar.

And I took it to the master of the banquet in.

No doubt those servants.

At that point.

We're going, we are dead.

Because I know what we just put in those jars and now we're taking stuff out of those jars and we're going to take it to the master of the banquet.

That's what it takes to John.

Chapter number 2, at the end of verse 8, going to burst in.

It says and they did.

So talking about the service.

They did, as Jesus said they got the pot, they fill them with water.

They took the water out and they took it to the master of the banquet and the master of the banquet verse 9. Tasted the water that had been turned into wine and he did, he did not realize we're headed come from.

So the servants who had drawn the water new.

It says then he called the bridegroom aside and said everyone brings out the choice one or the best one first.

And then the cheaper one after the guests have had too much to drink already gotten drunk and it says there, but listen to way it ended here.

It says, but you have saved the best till now.

How many knows that it says, but you have saved the best till now, I need you to look at your neighbor and say, is your best days are now.

I need you to tell him I can actually mean to tell him your best days are now.

How many knows that we always think?

How many knows we in the church are really really bad and for always prophesying something in the future and that's wonderful.

And that's great.

And I'm glad that God speaks to us and tells us that we keep on keeping on Victory is just on the other side that I have.

Me knows we've all heard that and that's encouraging and I scraped but I want to encourage you right now.

Is that your best days are now?

Somebody needs to get excited about that.
