Luke 10:17-20
The seventy-two returned with joy, saying,“ Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.”He said to them,“ I watched Satan fall from heaven like lightning.Look, I have given you the authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy; nothing at all will harm you.However, don’t rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

Luke 10:3-12
Now go; I’m sending you out like lambs among wolves.Don’t carry a money-bag, traveling bag, or sandals; don’t greet anyone along the road.Whatever house you enter, first say,‘ Peace to this household.’If a person of peace is there, your peace will rest on him; but if not, it will return to you.Remain in the same house, eating and drinking what they offer, for the worker is worthy of his wages. Don’t move from house to house.When you enter any town, and they welcome you, eat the things set before you.Heal the sick who are there, and tell them,‘ The kingdom of God has come near you.’When you enter any town, and they don’t welcome you, go out into its streets and say,‘ We are wiping off even the dust of your town that clings to our feet as a witness against you. Know this for certain: The kingdom of God has come near.’I tell you, on that day it will be more tolerable for Sodom than for that town.

Don’t acquire gold, silver, or copper for your money-belts.Don’t take a traveling bag for the road, or an extra shirt, sandals, or a staff, for the worker is worthy of his food.When you enter any town or village, find out who is worthy, and stay there until you leave.Greet a household when you enter it,and if the household is worthy, let your peace be on it; but if it is unworthy, let your peace return to you.If anyone does not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that house or town.
