In Mark 8:29 we read Peters words, “Thou art the Christ”. He knew who Jesus was but really didn’t know what Jesus’ mission here on earth was. He got full marks for his answer Jesus said, “Flesh and blood hasn’t revealed this to you but my Father in heaven”. That’s fine, but by the time we get to verse 33 Jesus is rebuking him as the agent of Satan. They bypass our mind and flow through our hearts. You know why I believe Cain’s offering was not acceptable – it was his work and he was expecting God to bless his work. I see that so many times, in my life, we go to God seeking His acceptance of that which we are doing. I have come to realise more and more that without Him we are nothing. Without Him we can do nothing. If you are struggling with anything in your life yield to God.
