Sermon Notes
Equipped to Lead | Week 19
This week we talked about the moment David became king but more importantly, when the Spirit of the Lord came upon him.
His leadership didnât start when he got the crown. It started when he was anointed.
We were reminded that the real shift in our lives doesnât come from a title, it comes from the Holy Spirit.We also walked through the Spring Feasts and how Jesus fulfilled every one of them! From Passover to Pentecost.
The same Spirit that filled David... now fills us.Let this be your prayer:
âDo not cast me from Your presence or take Your Holy Spirit from me.â â Psalm 51:11

This message isnât just for momsâitâs from them.

Sermon Notes
God still speaksâand He wants to lead you.  But how often do we assume instead of ask?
How often do we obey⌠even when others donât understand?
In this message, we look at the life of David and the cry of Moses in Exodus 33:
âShow me now your ways, that I may know you.â
Whether you're in a season of decision, in the middle of a battle, or standing in victoryâkeep seeking Him.
God speaks through peace, His Word, godly counsel, and His presence.
And His presence is your protection.

đĽ Equipped to Lead â This Week's Message đĽ
This Sunday weâre diving deep into 1 Samuel 22 and asking a hard question: Are we killing the priests?
When we attack spiritual authority, we don't just hurt people â we can destroy entire communities, churches, and generations.
