Verses from Luke

耶稣召齐十二门徒，给他们能力、权柄，制伏一切鬼魔，医治各样的疾病，

于是他们就出去，走遍各乡，传讲福音，到处医治病人。(路加福音 9:1, 6)

When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases,

So they set out and went from village to village, proclaiming the good news and healing people everywhere. (Luke 9:1, 6)

Their preaching and healing in Jesus’ power and authority proved that Jesus had actually brought God’s rule to earth.

Many today are trapped under the weight of sin, but our great God can rescue us from underneath those burdens and then send us into the world to tell others that He can set them free.

Those who’ve been rescued from sin are best able to help in the rescue of others.

It's important to note that in the verses, Luke’s emphasis was on Jesus. He was the one who gave His disciples the authority. It’s important to remember that power and authority are always His to give.
