Don't stand in God's way! Part 2

Test every spirit though, and be sure it is God's Spirit leading you. God will never contravene His Word, and will not deny Jesus. We can stand in God's way with doubt and unbelief. Jesus could not do much in His hometown, for the people, because of  familiarity did not open up to His ministry. They were filled with doubt and unbelief.

Mark 6:1-6 Jesus left there and went to his home town, accompanied by his disciples. When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed.
‘Where did this man get these things?’ they asked. ‘What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable miracles he is performing? Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?’ And they took offence at him.

Jesus said to them, ‘A prophet is not without honour except in his own town, among his relatives and in his own home.’ He could not do any miracles there, except lay his hands on a few people who were ill and heal them. He was amazed at their lack of faith.

Open up to God, His ways are not our ways. We ought to go to Him (God) for understanding, not to men. Man's knowledge is limited, but God is Omniscient.
