Lk 9:2-3, 6 And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick. And he said unto them, Take nothing for your journey, neither staves, nor scrip, neither bread, neither money; neither have two coats apiece. And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where. LESSON - The disciples understood what it meant to live by faith. God wanted them to be in a position where they were completely reliant upon Him. He was going to direct them to the places they would go, lead them to the people they would meet, and provide EVERYTHING they would need for that day. Their only command was to share the Gospel. If they would merely place themselves in a position to where they were fully dependent upon the Lord and dedicate themselves to preaching the Gospel, they would see the Power of God displayed in their lives. They dared to do something great for God!! Does your life currently reflect greater dependence upon others or the Lord?
