Matthew 10:9 Context
6But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 7And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of heaven is at hand. 8Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give. 9Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, 10Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat. 11And into whatsoever city or town ye shall enter, enquire who in it is worthy; and there abide till ye go thence. 12And when ye come into an house, salute it.

Wesley's Notes for Matthew 10:9
10:9 Provide not - The stress seems to lie on this word: they might use what they had ready; but they might not stay a moment to provide any thing more, neither take any thought about it. Nor indeed were they to take any thing with them, more than was strictly necessary. Lest it should retard them. Because they were to learn hereby to trust to God in all future exigencies.
People's Bible Notes for Matthew 10:9
Mt 10:9 Provide neither gold, etc. Because "the workman is worthy of his meat" (Mt 10:10) and those to whom they preached should supply all their wants. Compare 1Ti 5:18 1Co 9:7-14. This has always been the law of Christ.
