Jesus Marvelled because of their unbelief!

Mark:6:1-6: "And he went out from thence, and came into his own country; and his disciples follow him.
2: And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and many hearing him were astonished, saying, From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?
3: Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James, and Joses, and of Juda, and Simon? and are not his sisters here with us? And they were offended at him.
4: But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
5: And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.
6: And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching."

Jesus Marvelled if We have Great Faith!

Matthew:8:5-11: "And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
6: And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
7: And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8: The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.
9: For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
10: When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
11: And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven."

NOTE:SAME ACCOUNT RECORDED TWICE

Luke:7:1-10: "Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.
2: And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.
3: And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
4: And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
5: For he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue.
6: Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
7: Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
8: For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
9: When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
10: And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick."

May we Please God! May we Please Jesus Christ our Saviour and Lord!

Hebrews:11:6: "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God.

Romans:10:17: "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

We grow in faith by knowing WORD of GOD.

We grow in faith by knowing JESUS CHRIST the Living WORD.

We grow in faith NOT by our command or our will...when we see our own faith as small as a mustard seed...meaning we do not believe in ourselves...but believe in JESUS instead...we start to have faith.

When we see within ourselves and think that we are great...Jesus see us as small instead

when we humble and see ourselves as small...Jesus see us as Great.

Matthew:18:4: "Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven."

Matthew:23:12: "And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted."

Luke:14:11: "For whosoever exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted."

When we see Jesus as GOD...this is GREAT FAITH!

When we see Jesus as mere man only...how can we say we have faith?

When we see JESUS as Perfect MAN and Perfect GOD...GREAT IS OUR FAITH and GOD IS A REWARDER OF THEM THAT DILIGENTLY SEEK HIM!

Philippians:2:8: "And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross."

James:4:6: "But he giveth more grace. Wherefore he saith, God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace unto the humble."

James:4:10: "Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up."

1Peter:5:5,6: "Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble."
"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:"

Hebrews:11:6: "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him."

Ephesians:4:13: "Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:"
