The Spirit of God is like a train at a constant rate of motion. Destination? Kingdom of God. Someone like Apostle Paul, how did he know where to go, or whom to talk to? He was on the train, listening to God's Holy Spirit, going where God shepherded him.
The disciples were sent out in twos with no staff, no bread, no bag, no money. Where would they sleep? Where would they find food? They needed to get on the train, and listen to God's Holy Spirit. They went out in twos. Iron sharpens iron.
One of the ways we love God is by "doing." God's plan is God's Kingdom. We go do. Doesn't take anything other than a decision made by a man. It is a good day to build The Kingdom of God. The Kingdom of God has particular values.
Doubt and fear, they kill faith.
Walking "In God," walking in Faith, may be a State. A state of having no doubt, no fear, no worry.
No doubt, no Fear, no worry.
7 And he called the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over the unclean spirits. 8 He charged them to take nothing for their journey except a staff—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts— 9 but to wear sandals and not put on two tunics.[a] 10 And he said to them, “Whenever you enter a house, stay there until you depart from there. 11 And if any place will not receive you and they will not listen to you, when you leave, shake off the dust that is on your feet as a testimony against them.” 12 So they went out and proclaimed that people should repent. 13 And they cast out many demons and anointed with oil many who were sick and healed them. (Mark 6:7-13)

But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do. (James 1:6-8)

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you—you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:25-34)
No doubt, no Fear, no worry.
