Matthew 6:10 – Can We Pray “Your Kingdom Come?
PHall | August 2, 2013
“Epiphanies” should be redefined as, “Well, duh!” I felt this way contemplating the Lord’s Prayer, specifically, “Your Kingdom come.” Too often interpretations are based upon fighting against false doctrines, or cross referencing topics from one book to another. We leave the text to prove a point. Consequently too many today think “Your Kingdom come” cannot […]
Judges 6:11-24 – Praying through the Bible #71 – A Prayer of Pain and Abandonment
PHall | August 2, 2013
“God is good.” Such praise is often said as prayers are answered yes. Is God only good when we get what we want? When my kids ask for something and I say yes, they say, “Thank you, I love you.” Immediately I inquire, “Would you still love me if I said no?” They respond, “Yes, […]
John 6 – God’s Math

5 (loaves) + 2 (fish) = 5000 fed plus 12 baskets leftover.
John 6 – Believing Before Us and Believing For Us
PHall | July 27, 2013
Why is it the apostles who know who Jesus is still cannot grasp what it means? Why is it they believe, but cannot believe He can feed 5000 plus when in the days of Moses a million plus were fed everyday? I suggest it is because it is easier for us humans to believe in […]
John 6 – Free Food
PHall | July 27, 2013
People eat free food miraculously provided (6:8-11), and in the morning discover the source (Jesus) is gone (6:24). So they travel across the sea for more free food (6:26). Isn’t it amazing how hard people will work for free food? Reminds me of all the hours spent on the side of the road begging. Working […]
John 6 – Passover, Meal – Sea Miracle – Manna
PHall | July 27, 2013
John’s gospel often tells stories in two’s. Reading John 6, I wondered why is the sign of walking on water right in the middle of the story of feeding the 5000 and the Sermon on the Manna? Chronology cannot be the only answer for many chronological details are left out. So…the beginning of John 6 […]
Genesis 3:15 – Conflict and Victory or Just Continual Conflict?
PHall | July 26, 2013
Genesis 3:15 – I am wondering if I have totally missed what this verse is saying. Somehow I got the impression that the Seed (Jesus) would crush the serpent’s (Satan’s) head while the serpent (Satan) only bruised the heel of the Seed (Jesus). Just picture someone stomping on a snake to kill it, and that […]
Judges 6:1-10 – Praying through the Bible #70 – A Prayer that Got an “I Told You So”
PHall | July 25, 2013
Do you ever wish God verbally answered your prayers? Oh, that might get a little uncomfortable at times. Once again, Israel falls prey to their folly. The inspired author succinctly says, they “did what was evil in the sight of the LORD” (Judg 6.1). “Evil,” look it up: bad, malignant, giving pain, unhappiness, misery, hurtful, […]
