Acts 16:6-13

The Macedonian Call

6And athey went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. 7And when they had come up to Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but bthe Spirit of Jesus did not allow them. 8So, passing by Mysia, they went down cto Troas. 9And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing there, urging him and saying, “Come over to Macedonia and help us.” 10And when Paul
Greek he
had seen the vision, immediately ewe sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
