Psalm 54 (Listen)

To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Maskil of David, when the Ziphites went and told Saul, “Is not David hiding among us?”

54:1   O God, save me by your name,
    and vindicate me by your might.
2   O God, hear my prayer;
    give ear to the words of my mouth.
3   For strangers have risen against me;
    ruthless men seek my life;
    they do not set God before themselves. Selah
4   Behold, God is my helper;
    the Lord is the upholder of my life.
5   He will return the evil to my enemies;
    in your faithfulness put an end to them.
6   With a freewill offering I will sacrifice to you;
    I will give thanks to your name, O LORD, for it is good.
7   For he has delivered me from every trouble,
    and my eye has looked in triumph on my enemies.

Children and youth
There's plenty in Bethel for children of every age. There's a Sunday school with classes for nursery, infants and juniors. On Sunday evenings there's an after-church meeting for teenagers. In the week there are children's clubs after school: Adventurers for children in nursery and infants, Discoverers for juniors, and Impact for those in High School.

Debra’s story

“I realised God loved me and wanted me back”

I was a bit of wild child – doing what I wanted when I wanted. I wasn't really thinking about God. But after getting married I took my children to Bethel's Sunday School and started going back to the church. I used to hide under my hymn book as we were singing. I was in tears, thinking, 'What have I done with my life?' I realised what a fool I'd been, but I knew God was working in me – he loved me and wanted me back.
