The final words of Jesus in chapter 9 was to pray that God would send workers into the harvest; and this is exactly what Jesus does in choosing twelve men to send them into the harvest of Israel. In this, He tells them not to carry additional provisions for themselves, but to rely of God working through those who hear them to provide for their needs.   And He also warns them of persecution because of their preaching Jesus as Messiah. He teaches them not to be afraid of men who seek to do them harm because of their message, but rest assured of the Fathers love and concern for them. So, they should publicly proclaim Him before all. And finally, as to those who hear them and receive their message and support their ministry, He states that God will reward them for their service.
