Romans 15:28-29
(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.
Again Paul said that after going to Jerusalem he would go to Spain and visit the Romans on the way (cf. v. 24). Paul got to Rome, but not when or in the manner he anticipated! (Acts 27-28) Whether he ever got to Spain no one knows for sure. Christians should plan ahead, but they should also be flexible. Paul, not boastfully but simply confident of God’s provision, promised that his visit would be a spiritual blessing to the Roman Christians: I will come in the full measure of the blessing of Christ, that is, with Christ’s blessing to share with them (cf. Rom. 1:11-13).
