Horns of Hattin



In John 12:23 Jesus replied, "The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified. I tell you the truth, unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds.


Here “Give us our bread” could be related to the Great Commission and our responsibility to scatter the seeds of the Truth of the Gospel.


John 6:48 states “I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and are dead. This is the bread which comes down from heaven, that one may eat of it and not die.  I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.”


The John 6 passage clearly uses wheat as a metaphor for eternal life (eternal living bread), that Christ freely gives through (his sinless life,death and resurrection) His flesh (bread)


Forgive us the debt of

our sins as we forgive

the debt of those who

sin against us


The expression "horn of salvation," applied to Christ, means a salvation of strength, or a strong Saviour
(Luke 1:69) who is able to forgive and save.


2 Samuel 22:3 (NKJV)

The God of my strength, in whom I will trust;
My shield and the horn (Strength) of my salvation,
My stronghold and my refuge;
My Savior…
