Dancing
DANCING IS A FORM OR METHOD OF WORSHIP.
1. PRAISE HIM WITH TIMBREL AND DANCE - chorus, or group dance.
See Psa. 150:4.
An extreme form of praise and worship which involves loving
the Lord with ALL your STRENGTH.
Note: it says Praise Him with the dance - no mention anywhere
of dancing in the spirit. Although there are times when the
Spirit completely takes over a person and causes them to
dance. But this is the exception and not the rule. We don't
have to wait for that.
2. PRAISE HIS NAME IN THE DANCE. Psa. 149:3.
This whole Psalm is for today. Note v. 6-9 , a prophecy
concerning this end of the age, having to do with this
generation--created to praise the Lord.
3. FIRST RECORD OF DANCING is after Israel 's deliverance out of
Egypt. Ex.15:20-21.
We who have been redeemed and delivered out of the Egypt of
this world have the same right to rejoice and praise Him with
the dance.
4. DANCED AND SANG WITH JOY AFTER THE DEFEAT OF THE ENEMY.
1.Sam.18:6-7.
5. DANCING AT THE RETURN OF THE ARK. 2 Sam.6:13-16.
Speaks of the presence and glory of God. This is the hour of
the restoration of all things which His presence brings. It
is in order to dance. Many Michal's despising the dance as
in v.27 will be struck barren of joy and life.
6. A TIME TO DANCE Eccl. 3:1.
7. LOSS OF JOY AND THE DANCE BECAUSE OF BONDAGE, Lam. 5:14-15.
Joel 1:10-12 speaks of barrenness, dryness and bondage because
Joy had withered away.
8. A PROPHECY OF THE RETURN RESTORATION OF THE DANCE.
Jer.31:14-15.
"Again will I build thee....and thou shalt go forth in the
dances." A restoration of this form of praise prophesied.
V.13 - no age limit, the old will have their strength
renewed.
9. TURNED OUR MOURNING INTO DANCING (chorus). Psa. 30:11.
10. BRIDES CHOSEN FROM AMONG THE DANCERS AT THE YEARLY FEAST.
Jud. 21:21. When choosing a partner in life, make sure they
are one with you in the liberty of the Spirit and are keeping
the Feasts of the Lord.
11. SINGING GROUP OF DANCERS, company of 2 armies. Song of
Sol. 6:13. The word 'company' means - Singing group of
Dancers.
NEW TESTAMENT SCRIPTURES
12. LOVE THE LORD WITH ALL YOUR STRENGTH or might. Luke 10:27.
Dancing involves our strength.
13. PAUL'S WAY OF WORSHIP WAS CALLED HERESY. Acts 24:14.
It was called emotional, `fanatical' because he worshipped
according to the law and prophets (The Word). David the
prophet taught to praise with a loud noise, with the dance.
etc.
14. RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS spoken of by the prophets before
the return of Jesus. Acts 3:19-21.
All methods of praise including the dance to be restored,
Jer. 31:4.
15. PRODIGAL SON RESTORED - GREAT JOY AND DANCING, Luke 15:25.
God is restoring to His church the things it has lost (gifts,
fellowship etc.,) - is it not in order to be joyful?
16. TEACHING AND ADMONISHING IN PSALMS. Col. 3:16.
Teach people the methods of praise laid down in the Book of
Psalms which is for us today. Admonish them to dance.
The word "GLADNESS" and "JOYFUL" in the following verses mean
TO LEAP OFTEN, VIOLENT LEAPING, TWIST, TO SPRING ABOUT.
17, Heb.1:9 - anointed thee (Jesus) with the oil of "GLADNESS".
18. Matt.5:12. - be exceedingly "GLAD" when persecuted - no
positive feelings around.

mountains of difficulty, opposition etc.). Jesus said
"Follow Me".
