WWW.DANCE
One day in church as I was listening to the sermon I asked God “Why Dance?” i.e. “What is the purpose of dancers?”
He gave me to Worship to be Warriors and to Witness, hence the WWW.Dance
Note that each of these areas is two fold.
Worship
(1) To minister to God- praising Him and delighting in Him so He may delight in you.
(2) To minister to man- being role models as worshippers, showing others how to praise God with your whole being, and to usher in God’s presence (rather like a lightning rod)
Warriors
(1) Offensive - to take for Christ, Dance as an industry and as a people group. The more territory Christian dancers cover the less space there is for unholy influences. We also declare that everywhere we place our feet we claim for God.
(2) Defensive – We protect what God has given us. The victories he has in store for us, we claim and protect through prayer. We protect our talents by consecrating ourselves and by being careful how we choose to use our art and our bodies.
Witness
(1) To See- to witness, as in see or experience what God is doing in our land and in our industry. We pray specifically for breakthroughs and people, then we can say we witness what God is doing in our midst.
(2) To speak- we testify as to what miracles we have seen. We show through dance and through our lives what God has done and is doing, so that all glory goes to Him, and people will be convinced.
Even as you read all of this, remember that before you are a dance person, you are first and foremost a child of God. God is more concerned with your relationship with Him than with what you will do for Him. Before he calls you to Worship, be a Warrior and Witness for Him, He first calls you to Himself.
