🔯  Read Romans 15 🔯  

Paul's future plans 

🔯  Romans 15:  

22. - For which cause also I have been much hindered from coming to you.

23  -   But now having no more place in these parts, and having a great desire these many years to come unto you;

24   -  Whensoever I take my journey into Spain, I will come to you: for I trust to see you in my journey, and to be brought on my way thitherward by you, if first I be somewhat filled with your company. 

25  -  But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints.

26   -  For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem.                   

27  -   It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are.  For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.

28   -  When therefore I have performed this, and have sealed to them this fruit, I will come by you into Spain .                                                                                                       29  -  And I am sure that, when I come unto you, I shall come in the fulness of the blessing of the gospel of Christ. 🔯💟💟💟🙏

The coming of the king 

 👑 Zechariah 9:   

9 -   Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; shout, O daughter of Jerusalem: behold, thy King cometh unto thee: he is just, and having salvation; lowly, and riding upon an ass, and upon a colt the foal of an ass.

10  -  And I will cut off the chariot from Ephraim, and the horse from Jerusalem, and the battle bow shall be cut off: and he shall speak peace unto the heathen: and his dominion shall be from sea even to sea, and from river even to the ends of the earth.

11  -  As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.

12  -  Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even to day do I declare that I will render double unto thee;  🔯💜💜💜🙏
