Sunday Morning Series (Moor St) - April-May 2026
How do you fight your battles?
What challenges are you facing at the moment? Have you ever received upsetting news, or found yourself on the wrong side of an argument? Did you ever try to deal with something, only for it to go wrong and blow up in your face? Have you been through some scrapes that have left you scarred, hurt or wounded? Every one of us faces circumstances, situations and experiences that challenge our responses. King David is one of the heroes of the Bible, being described as a man after God’s own heart. And yet most of his life was spent fighting battles, some forced on him and others the result of his own mistakes. He was a worshipper as well as a warrior, and we find an insight into his perspective and approach to the battles he faced through the songs he wrote that reveal the secrets he learned about living in the battle.
Our new series will look at some of his experiences recorded in six popular and familiar Psalms that he wrote in response to situations he went through. By helping us understand the background behind each of these Psalms we can learn how to fight the battles we face using the lessons David learned that allowed him to worship God in every situation. This series will help us grow in our faith by putting in place healthy discipleship foundations so we can sing songs of victory whatever life throws at us, developing Godly characteristics along the way.

Our next week of prayer will be using the idea of the tabernacle to help us draw close to God and be inspired to pray and hear from Him. As we learn from the different parts of the design that we read of in the book of Exodus that point us towards Jesus, we can draw inspiration and prophetic insight to help us bring our prayers and intercessions before Him, and take time to dwell in the presence of God and hear what He may want to say to us.
Join us as we construct a physical Tabernacle space in our Moor St worship space where you can take time out to spend with God in a creative setting.
What might happen if you were to set aside just one hour during the week to stop and be in the presence of God?
