Deeper Life with Tony Hallo

Part2. (Israel, Loved in Heaven, Hated in Hell) In this episode we take a closer look at the origins of Lucifer’s fall and rebellion as described in Isaiah 14:12-15 and also in Revelation 12:1-6. Satan’s main tactic is to refute the authority of God, to cause all those that listen to him to doubt God’s integrity and right to rule sovereignty. He (Satan) knowing that God will ultimately have His wa...

Part1. (Israel, Loved in Heaven, Hated in Hell) In this new study which we’ll delve into over the course of five or more episodes, we examine the Scriptures to understand the uniqueness of Israel. There is so much controversy and miss understanding regarding the People and the Land. The one pervading truth in the Scriptures is that … what God loves and chooses the Devil will do all he can to defil...

Part6. (Revival Now - The Glory) In this final part we look at the practical and spiritual experience of having the Glory of God manifest to us, having the Spirit of God come to us to open the eyes of our understanding. Before we can experience deep and abiding fellowship in the sanctuary of hearts with the Living God, there must be preparation. In Leviticus we see an Old Testament principle of pr...

Part5. (Revival Now - The Glory) In this episode we continue to search the Scriptures for principles that govern that manifestation of God’s presence and glory in our own lives and in the Church. But we also want an awakening in our Land and in the Nations of the Earth … we want to see God glorified! We begin by looking at Moses starting in Exodus chapter 33, we examine his hunger for God and his...

Part4. (Revival Now) To have revival there must be restoration. In chapter two of Nehemiah we see how God brings about circumstances after Nehemiah’s prayer of confession and for restoration, to bring his request before then King. Having his request granted Nehemiah begins to fulfill the priorities of God only to find conflict and discouragement by the enemies of Israel that will resist the buildi...

Part3. (Revival Now) Often in the Psalms the writer asks of God to revive him, we can have personal revival when we draw near and “seek God while He maybe found …” Revival is different and yet their are links between an awakening and revival. An awakening is when a Nation or a region of people are suddenly quickened by the Spirit of God, this is a sovereign act of God. Sometimes it happens without...

Part2. (Revival Now) In this episode we look at how Satan breaks down boundaries (that are meant to safeguard us) so as to enter and further destroy and attempt to make void the work of God. The primary methods he uses are, compromise and contamination. Let’s further explore those things that stifle revival by reading Nehemiah chapters 1-3. This episode concludes the current study on Revival Now....

Part1. (Revival Now) In this episode we are going to look into a subject which is wide and diverse and many Christians have different thoughts and ideas about it. We will be talking about REVIVAL, to some it brings to mind great meetings of vast crowds, to others miraculous events, and so on. The very idea of revival in a Christian context means bringing back to life something that was dead or nea...

Part4. (Prayers from a pigpen) In conclusion to this study we consider what most people would regard as respectable. Yet when examined under the lens of Scripture we realise that it would be the worst of all “pigpens” and that is … self righteousness, trying to fulfill the demands of The Law in the flesh. Jesus had much say about it in parables and Paul the Apostle describes it in himself prior to...

Part3. (Prayers from a pigpen) Luke chapter 8 and verse 22 begins a saga that you and I should take special note of. As we know, we live in a troubled world and those who do not know and have their confidence firmly established in God will be subject to kinds of upheavals. In verses 22 - 39 we note there are three person(s) trapped in “pigpens”, the disciples, the demon possessed man and the peopl...

Part2. (Prayers from a pigpen) Wilfulness and waywardness are aspects of the human heart that we are all too familiar with. Turning to the Gospel of Luke in chapter 15 we read three consecutive parables. The first about a lost sheep, the second about a lost silver coin and the third about the lostness of a young man … a son. Jesus in this parable of the lost son contrasts the defiance of the son a...

Part1. (Prayers from a pigpen) Moving onto our next study. Over the course of four episodes we will examine in the Scriptures those who have fallen and failed terribly, yet God in His lovingkindness received their prayer of contrition. So often, more than we care to admit we make wrong choices for one reason or another and find ourselves in “pigpens”. The prodigal of Luke 15 will be the backdrop t...

Part5. (My Kingdom) Concluding this study we focus on the vastness of the Kingdom of God. In John chapter 18 starting from verse 33 we pick up the conversation with Pilate questioning Jesus about His kingship and kingdom, the reply given by Jesus reveals the eternal nature of the Kingdom of God. We hope you have found this study helpful, let us know your thoughts by contacting us at contact@aboutf...

Part4. (The Kingdom of God) Colossians chapter 1 and verses 9-14 describe our transition from one kingdom to another, the kingdom of darkness “into the kingdom of the Son of His love …” (verse 13) Having this new hope and citizenship we are no longer under the demands of the former kingdom. The Bible makes it plain that this transition is supernatural and only made possible by Christ’s work; incar...

Part3. (The Kingdom Now) Looking at Matthew chapter four we get some insight into the “arresting” of the kingdoms of this world from Satan and the delivery of those kingdoms into The Kingdom of God by the Lord Jesus Christ. We pick up the narrative in verse one, where Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil. You can contact us at contact@aboutface180.net   We...

Part2. (The Kingdom Now) In this episode we ask what is “The Kingdom”? … How do we define it and describe it? The King of the Kingdom we are delving into is none other than Jesus, Isaiah chapter 9 and verses 6 to 7 gives a detailed description of not only Jesus our King but also describes the perfect rule of His Kingdom.

Part1. (The Kingdom Now) In this new series about “The Kingdom of God” we will first consider the Lord’s Prayer (or The Pattern Prayer) found in the gospel of Matthew. The Lord’s Prayer is a series of principles by which we understand the Kingdom of God/the Kingdom of Heaven. In the Kingdom it’s very important to note that prayer is not simply words spoken but is conditioned by holiness of heart,...

Part3. (Called and named by God). Israel is called by God to bring to the world of Nations the things that He has planned - that is redemption for the whole Earth. In the book of Romans, chapters 9, 10 and 11, Paul shows that from the beginning God’s original intent for Israel. Even though they were scattered from the land in AD 70 it was God Himself that restored Israel (in 1948) as a nation back...

Part2. (Called and named by God). God called Israel out to be a special people, unique to all the nations around about. (Deuteronomy 7:6-15) Their material prosperity was because of their spiritual purity. They were to be a light to the darkened gentile nations. But what happens when they refuse God’s pattern for themselves and turn in rebellion to the ways of the surrounding pagan nations, will G...

Part1. (Called and named by God). In this new subject we will be looking at a mystery of God and that is His election of a Nation, that Nation is Israel. In Psalm 80 (written by Asaph) we read a testimony not only of a man but also of a nation. Three time in this Psalm the phrase “restore us” appears, it means to bring us back to a place where once we were, that should be the prayer of every Bible...

Part5. (Abandonment) Having looked at the unity and acceptance and security that should be in the Body of Christ. In this episode we counter balance this by delving into Romans 16:17-18 where Paul warns Christians to be watchful regarding those that are divisive and teach erroneous doctrine that alienates from true fellowship with brothers and sisters, then ultimately with God. Paul speaks of thes...

Part4. (Abandonment) Moving on from Jesus’ comforting and securing statement “ … I am with you always even to the end of the age ..” we look into the security that Jesus intends to be in the Body of Christ. The new commandment that He gave to His disciples was that they should love one another just as He (Christ) loved them. This hallmark of love that Jesus wants to be in His Church can only be ac...

In this episode of Deeper Life InQuest, Tony talks with Pastor Anne Harley about her early life and life in the ministry. Anne has a remarkable ability to pull together churches of all denominations for the common cause, to glorify God. In doing so she fosters a great sense of unity, togetherness and a whole lot of fun. For over 20 years Anne has been at the head of the Stable Christmas event in T...

Part3. (Abandonment) The redemption we have in Christ is powerful! Even if we have lived a torrid life, He  is able to cleanse and restore us. We see this in the book of 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 and also verses 18-20 where Paul reminds the Corinthians of their former life how they were bought by the blood of Christ and not cast out and abandoned. In the upper room discourse (John 14) Jesus himself sai...

Part2. (Abandonment)  Continuing the theme of abandonment we look into a well know narrative in John chapter 4 and beginning at verse 4, where Jesus travelling through Samaria and stopping for a rest by a well, strikes up a conversation with a woman who knows repeatedly what it is, to be abandoned.
