Luke 9:3-6
3 And He said to them, “Take nothing for the journey, neither staffs nor bag nor bread nor money; and do not have two tunics apiece. 4 “Whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart. 5 And whoever will not receive you, when you go out of that city, shake off the very dust from your feet as a testimony against them.” 6 So they departed and went through the towns, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.
Jesus sent His ambassadors out with total reliance on His provision - they were to go with the shirt on their back and no food or supplies. This made them lean on Him as they proclaimed the good news and helped others. Whatever we do now in His name must have that same reliance on God's grace and daily provision in Christ wherever we go. Where we are welcome, we share more; where rejected, we shake it off and move on to those He is calling and have ears to hear.
