Luke 9:2 “He sent them to preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick.”
The message to be preached at this time was to the Jewish nation. The sick were healed as an evidence of the authority of the disciples to preach this message. They were telling Israel that the long awaited Messiah had come.
Heavenly Father, You are always faithful. You do not change even though we lose sight of You and forget what we know of Your goodness. You so often remind us of Your truth. What a mercy that is! We must remember and see and praise You, for You are worthy. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
