He Gave Them Power

„And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.“ Matthew 10:1

Jesus expected His disciples to continue the mission of salvation after He was gone. They were His ambassadors in this earth to represent His Kingdom. They were not left empty handed, but given the power to convince the world that Jesus is the Messiah. The power included casting out of devils and healing of all manner of diseases. We see some, but not much of it today. However, in His great commission Jesus said that the signs of power should follow those that believe His name. That include us who live 2 thousand years after Jesus death and resurrection. We should expect to be healed, delivered and offer the same to those whom we preach the gospel. Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever and the power is given to us to serve those who are in need. Let‘s pray it follows us when we share the Word of God with the unsaved ones.
