Matthew Henry's Commentary on Romans 1:10

Commentary on Romans 1:8-15

(Read Romans 1:8-15)

We must show love for our friends, not only by praying for them, but by praising God for them. As in our purposes, so in our desires, we must remember to say, If the Lord will, James 4:15. Our journeys are made prosperous or otherwise, according to the will of God. We should readily impart to others what God has trusted to us, rejoicing to make others joyful, especially taking pleasure in communing with those who believe the same things with us. If redeemed by the blood, and converted by the grace of the Lord Jesus, we are altogether his; and for his sake we are debtors to all men, to do all the good we can. Such services are our duty.

32 so that I may come to you with joy, by God's will, and in your company be refreshed.

32 that I may come to you with joy by the will of God, and may be refreshed together with you.

New Living Translation

32 Then, by the will of God, I will be able to come to you with a joyful heart, and we will be an encouragement to each other.

Matthew Henry's Commentary on Romans 15:32

Commentary on Romans 15:30-33

(Read Romans 15:30-33)

Let us learn to value the effectual fervent prayers of the righteous. How careful should we be, lest we forfeit our interest in the love and prayers of God's praying people! If we have experienced the Spirit's love, let us not be wanting in this office of kindness for others. Those that would prevail in prayer, must strive in prayer. Those who beg the prayers of others, must not neglect to pray for themselves. And though Christ knows our state and wants perfectly, he will know them from us. As God must be sought, for restraining the ill-will of our enemies, so also for preserving and increasing the good-will of our friends. All our joy depends upon the will of God. Let us be earnest in prayer with and for each other, that for Christ's sake, and by the love of the Holy Spirit, great blessings may come upon the souls of Christians, and the labours of ministers.
