“And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.”
Matthew 10:7-10 KJV
Jesus instructs His disciples, “And as you go, preach this message: ‘Heaven’s kingdom realm is accessible, close enough to touch.’ You must continually bring healing to lepers and to those who are sick, and make it your habit to break off the demonic presence from people, and raise the dead back to life. Freely you have received the power of the kingdom, so freely release it to others. You won’t need a lot of money. Travel light, and don’t even pack an extra change of clothes. Trust God for everything.” Preaching the Gospel is the call to repentance to turn from sin and turn to God for the Kingdom of heaven approaches. Cure the insane; don’t charge for preaching the Gospel; or for using God’s anointing. Jesus wants us to be clothed with the garment of righteousness we wear in Christ; our shoes symbolise the good news we carry. Our staff is the authority of Christ in us. This is the mandate from Christ for all His followers. This is true Independence! Amen!
