The Wedding

Did Jesus know in advance He would perform His First miracle, turning water into wine, before He came to the wedding.

I believe Jesus knew in advance he was going to reveal to man he was the Son of God in a preplanned order and fashion.

Jesus is from heaven, He is the Word. He is God. We are to live by every Word of God. We cannot live by what we feel, what we think or any passion. The Word of God is the final authority and not to be changed just because we believe differently. These are His thoughts, His ways, His Words, not ours.
Jesus, as a man, the Bible distinctly mentions limitations when He became flesh until His resurrection
He can do nothing unless the Father shows Him
He was lower than the angels
Before the resurrection, He knew not of the day or the hour

Matthew 24:36
34Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

Yes, but as a man, he knew he was the Son of God, and all His miracles were witness of that:

Matthew 16:15-17 (KJV)
15 He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? 16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God. 17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Hebrews 2:3-4 (KJV)
3 How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation; which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him; 4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?
 
Yes I agree, it is towards the end, He asked the Father to Glorify the Son.

He accomplished what he was send to do which was to bring Glory to His Name

He has finished the work He was sent to do.

He sanctifies Himself (make Holy) so that those who believe will be Holy

Jesus said, You (God) are in Me and I am in You.

Jesus needed God the Father to accomplish all the Work. He could not do it by Himself.

*when He was crucified He was separated from God when He took on Him all the sins of the world until He was resurrected and at the right hand of the Father

John 17

“Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. 2 For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. 3 Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. 4 I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do.
8 For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them.
9 I pray for them, I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours.
19 For them I sanctify myself, that they too may be truly sanctified.
20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

Note * He does not pray for the world, only for those (then and now) who will believe through the gospel, who have been given to Him, Jesus.
