Worshipping God- dancing in the spirit and not in technique.
I had a really good talk with a friend today and one of the things that she said was "you don't worship God with technique".
At a recent Night of worship service, her daughters who love God and who definitely can dance, they've had years of training, were rooted to the spot, they couldn't move and all they could do was raise their hands.
Why? You'd think they'd outdance the aunties and uncles and people there who have no training, but really all that technique was getting in the way.
So often as dancers, all the training we've been through makes us so self conscious, we're too focussed on self and not on God. The focus of worship is God. So that's why she said you do't worship God with technique.
We need to learn to let go of this self image, of the things that we've been imbibing in technique class, and let God take all our attention. Just as we can speak in tongues, pray in the spirit, be led, you can worship and dance led by the spirit. That is one of the most freeing things.
Wouldn'y you like to experience that? And just see hundreds of people worshipping, praising and interceding through dance. Imagine what that would look like, and you could experience that, and i really believe God will set you free to dancce for him, what a break through that will be.
there is a fireworks conference led by Shachach ministries at expo hall 2 Aug 9-11. From 6pm onwards it's the free evening session, with worship, word and warfare. Dancers i think this will give you a new direction in dancce and a new desire. or renewed desire.
Their website is www.shachach.org.
Check it out. Light that fire again.
