We cannot preach the love of God using signs and wonders as the proof. Because the absence of signs and wonders doesn't remove the presence of His love.
Healing is the proof of the Kingdom. Read Matt 10:8; Luke 10:9; Mark 16:15-18; Matt 12:28 and Luke 11:20
When we don't understand the Gospel (message) of the Kingdom, we preach healing as the proof of God's love. This is why people get disappointed with God. It is not God's fault. It is our fault because we, as messengers, did not bring the right message.
Healing is the proof that there is a King and His Kingdom. He has come to reign. And He reigns over chaos & darkness (sickness).
The disciples were commanded to preach "The Kingdom is here!" where healing is a confirmation of the message. Signs and wonders confirm the message that the King is present.
