READ: Mark 6
“And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them. And he marvelled because of their unbelief. And he went round about the villages, teaching.” – Mark 6:5-6
The sixth chapter of Mark contains the story of how Jesus was dishonoured in His hometown. But it also contains the story of how Jesus moved away from the place of dishonour and began to experience the amazing power of God. As you read on in the sixth chapter of Mark you see Jesus moving away from Nazareth, into places where the power of God could work. As Jesus moved further and further away from Nazareth, the anointing began to work and the power began to flow.
And whithersoever he entered, into villages, or cities, or country, they laid the sick in the streets, and besought him that they might touch if it were but the border of his garment: and as many as touched him were made whole. Mark 6:56 Financial miracles took place as Jesus commissioned disciples to go out on missions, even without money.

The life and ministry of Jesus are the best guide for your ministry! If it happened to Jesus, you can only expect that it will happen to you. If Jesus overcame His problems in a particular way, you must expect to overcome your problems in the same way. Jesus moved away from the people who dishonoured Him. He did not stay to explain to them how He was the Son of God and how He had many blessings in store for them. People who reject you must equally be abandoned. You must find those who believe in you, who believe in your calling. You must move away from those who dishonour you because Jesus moved away from those who dishonoured Him.
