Welcome to the Paul Tripp podcast, where pastor and best-selling author Dr. Paul David Tripp

connects the transforming power of Jesus Christ to everyday life. Today, we'll open our Bibles to John

4 as we continue the gospel, one sign at a time, our year-long study in the gospel of John. In it, Paul

looks at another miracle of Christ, the time he healed the official son. To hear more of these

Bible studies, visit paultrip.com slash John. Here's Paul from John 4. There's no sin, there's no situation, there's no relationship, there's no weakness, there's no failure that he isn't able to meet you in and provide for you what you need.

You know, We find ourselves in John 4, 46-54. Let me read for you. So He, Jesus, came again to

Canaan in Galilee, where he had made the water wine.

And at Copernium, there was an official whose son was ill.

And when this man heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son.

For he was at the point of death.

So Jesus said to him, unless you see signs and wonders, you will not believe.

The official said to him, sir, come down before my child dies.

So Jesus said to him, go, your son will live. The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him and went on his way.

And as he was going down, his servants met him and told him that his son was recovering.

So he asked them the hour when he began to get better.

And they said to him, yesterday at the seventh hour, the fever left him.

The father knew that that was the hour when Jesus had said to him,

your son will live.

And he himself believed in all his household.

And this was now the second sign that Jesus did

when it come from Judea to Galilee.

There is so much in this little vignette, again, that John has recorded for us.
