Have Power Over Spiritual and Physical Needs

Jesus taught his followers that they have power over spiritual and physical needs.

Matthew 10:1 35 Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom, and curing every disease and every sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; 38 therefore ask the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest." 10:1 Then Jesus summoned his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to cure every disease and every sickness. 2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon, also known as Peter, and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, the one who betrayed him.

Do we ignore Jesus' teaching that his followers have power over spiritual and physical problems?

Note: Jesus no sooner teaches his followers to pray that God will send workers to those in spiritual and physical need, when he tells them that they are the answer to their prayers - that God is sending them.  But he doesn't stop there.  Jesus gives them power over spiritual and physical needs.  Jesus' followers can change the world!
