Jesus sends out his disciples on mission with nothing but the clothes on their back - no money, no spare outfits and no walking sticks. Being on mission is a lesson in grace. On mission Jesus'…
It's a short-term mission trip.
He's given them some instructions of what they should pack and what they shouldn't pack.
And this is the opportunity for them to be trained up in how to live on mission for the kingdom of God.
Verses 31 to 33.
Yep,
31.
Yep, go, Vincent.
So,
do not worry, saying, what shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or what shall we wear? For the pagans run after these things, and your Heavenly Father knows that you need them.
But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as
well.
So Jesus taught that to his disciples, to live trusting in the Father.
But now, chapter 10, this is where the rubber hits the road.
Now he's saying, don't take anything with you.
No wallet, no spare socks, nothing.
Don't even bring a bag, he says, to pack snacks.
And the parents in the room are like, what, no snacks? No wet wipes? No spare change of clothes? Jesus is giving his disciples the opportunity now to exercise their faith.
He's not just using them to accomplish his mission.
He's actually shaping them and teaching them as they go on mission.
He shapes us as he works through us.
He teaches us as we are tested on the mission field.
And so the thing that I really want to hone in on this morning is the second half of verse 8.
