Jesus Sends Out the Twelve
Jesus had just left Nazareth. He's back on the mission path now. Now there are so many to heal and gather, Jesus send the disciples out on their own missions as well.
I'm so happy He did this. Now no one could say that only Jesus Himself can drive out demons and help the sick. But notice... they had to anoint them to heal them and Jesus didn't need to anoint them.
Mark 6:6 Then Jesus went around teaching from village to village. 7 Calling the Twelve to him, he began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over impure spirits.
8 These were his instructions: “Take nothing for the journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in your belts. 9 Wear sandals but not an extra shirt. 10 Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you leave that town. 11 And if any place will not welcome you or listen to you, leave that place and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.”
12 They went out and preached that people should repent. 13 They drove out many demons and anointed many sick people with oil and healed them.
