However, he was either too busy or hindered by Satan from doing so. The Apostle Paul intended to visit Rome while on his way to Spain and hoped to find joy in fellowship with the believers in the Church in Rome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px;\">Dear God, I understand from verses 25 to 27 that the Apostle Paul served and helped the saints of God both physically and spiritually. Therefore, he went to the Churches in Macedonia and Achaia to collect the offerings given by the Gentile believers to support the poor believers in Jerusalem. I understand that those who were not Israelites owed their salvation to the Israelites because it was through them that the Gospel of Salvation had come to the Gentiles. Therefore, the believers in the Churches of Macedonia and Achaia were pleased to share their material blessings to help their Israelite brothers and sisters in need. Their action was a way of expressing their gratitude to God and to the Israelite believers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px;\">Dear God, I understand from verses 28 to 29 that after the Apostle Paul finished his duty of delivering the money to the Church in Jerusalem, he planned to visit Rome and Spain. He believed that when he visited the believers in Rome, he would bring them the fullness of the blessings of the Gospel. I understand that this was because he intended to teach them more deeply about the Gospel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px;\">Dear God, I understand from verses 30 to 32 that Apostle Paul desired the believers in Rome to pray for him. He wanted them to pray that he would be delivered from the unbelievers in Judea who were hostile to the Gospel. He also asked for their prayers for the acceptance of the offering he brought to the Church in Jerusalem. He hoped that their prayers would be accepted by God so that he could come to them in joy and be refreshed in the will of God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"JUSTIFY\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 20px;\">May the God of Peace be with me, my brothers and sisters in the Church.
