The Lord taught us that we cannot pour new wine into old wineskins.
Otherwise the wineskins burst.
And the wine is lost.
So will you let go of the old wineskins?
And receive the new wine?
Born again.
A new creation, able to receive what He longs to give.
The best wine.
Because we both know where the best wine comes from.
He showed us at Cana.
Not merely for the wedding feast…
But as a prophecy of what He desires to do in every heart that turns to Him.
Filling us with things this world cannot manufacture.
Peace.
Comfort.
Joy.
Things you will not find in the marketplace.
Nor in a temple built by human hands.

Lyrics:
New Wine
E, G, A, C, D
This is the new wine
Will you accept it?
And rid of the skins that are old
This is the new wine
That Father gives you
Will you take the cup of the Lord?
This is the new wine…
Take the water that’s for cleansing
Something you would never drink
For the sake of our wedding
Our Lord will make you see
C, D, E
It’s the fruit of the vine
Giving us the best of wines
Of the water, by the Spirit
Filling our life with meaning
With new wine
E, G, A, C, D
Leave your pride and leave your worries
Turn your life into a story
From damnation to salvation
He presents for every nation
C, D, E
He’s the Truth and the Light
Giving us eternal life
Through the Son we, know the Father
And become His sons and daughters
Of our Lord
He’s the fruit of the vine
Giving us the best of wines
Of the water, by the Spirit
Filling our life with meaning
With new wine
Are you showing up for celebration?
The celebration of the Bride awaiting her Bridegroom.
The celebration where the Father Himself fills every cup.
With the new wine.
