SOME HAVE BROUGHT THE CLUB INTO THE CHURCH

Psalm 149:2-4

Let Israel be glad in his Maker; Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King. Let them praise His name with dancing; Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre. For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

Now the scripture indicates that those who are Israel, i.e., princes that have power with God and with men and hast prevailed, shall rejoice in the LORD their KING. They shall praise FATHER YAHWEH with dancing and with musical instruments.

Then the scriptures say the most important and wonderful thing.  It says that “the LORD takes pleasure in His people.”

No other people does God take pleasure in other than “HIS people” who are under HIS Covenant and Obey HIS ETERNAL COMMANDMENTS.

No Other People Can Offer Dance And Music As An Acts Of Worship And Praise Before The LORD And It Be Considered Holy Or Pleasurable To Father YHVH Other Than Those Whom He Has Chosen And Called Out From The World And Put His Name Upon.

No Rebellious, Fornicating, Adulterous, Perverted, Homosexual, Murderer, Drunkard, Prostitute, Practicing Liar, Extortioners, Lesbian, Transvestite, Licentious Parting Person Can Offer Any Melodies Or Dance In Worship To The LORD And It Be Considered Holy Or Pleasurable To Father YHVH.  The Worship Performances Of The Wicked Are Never Pleasing To Him Nor Does He Accept Their Acts Of Praise.

We can’t willfully disobey God’s Commandments and perform all types of sexual and moral immoralities then get up in a worship service and perform a praise dance or a shouting frenzy and think that GOD is pleased with our praise.  We may deceive the onlooker but we have not fooled GOD.

Even the music that is played in some worship services are unholy because the persons playing the instruments are unholy and those who dance to such music participates in their wickedness.

BEWARE!  SATAN is a Deceiver of Souls and He can imitate almost everything that GOD has created and called Holy.  However, his imitations are perverted and contrary to GOD for he is contrary to God

The Scriptures Seems To indicate That Satan Is A Master Musician And Unmatched Performer And Artist.  He Was The Most Beautiful And Excellent Among The Anointed Cherubs Who walked On the Fiery Stones Around GOD’S Throne Until Iniquity Was Found In him.  He Desired The Throne Of God For Himself For He Wanted To Be Like The MOST HIGH.  And Because Of His Rebellion, Satan Was Expelled And Thrown Down Out Of Heaven To Earth Where He Now Rules As Its god And Prince Of The Air.

Make No Mistake.  Satan Is In The Business Of “Church.”  And he Is Also In The Business Of Pretending To Worship And Praise God With Dance And With Instruments.  And one of Satan’s goals is to deceive us into believing that it is the HOLY SPIRIT of FATHER YAHWEH that causes one to dance and perform unseemly during Worship.

The Devil Is A Liar!!!

Father GOD through Christ promised that the Holy Spirit would be given as a gift to those who believed on the name of Yehowshua Ha’ Mashiach (Jesus CHRIST) and were buried (Baptized) in water In His name.  And the sign of their adoption and acceptance as Saints of God would be them speaking in tongues as the HOLY SPIRIT GIVES THEM THE UTTERANCE.  GOD never said that dancing was THE SIGN of the gift of the HOLY SPIRIT or a manifestation of His Power but that Speaking In Tongues was the sign. 

Dancing can be performed by anyone and of their own free will and in their own strength without them ever having to be born again in accordance with HOLY SCRIPTURES.

Music can be played and performed with power and exceptional depth with extraordinary emotional impact and flare that can cause anybody to move to the beat and/or to the melody without them ever having believed the Gospel Of the KINGDOM OF GOD, Surrendered to the Will Of God, Obeyed the Commandments of God or Repented for their sins.

A practicing sinner can perform a dance of praise to God during a worship service while folks are watching and the music is playing but that doesn’t mean that they are under the power or anointing of the HOLY SPIRIT.

BEWARE!  Don’t confuse talent and practiced dance moves and emotional outbursts with the anointing of the HOLY GHOST!

It is actually blasphemous for someone to call what some of these so-called worshipers are doing anointed and of the HOLY SPIRIT.

Don’t get it twisted! Dancing and shouting out aloud in worship doesn’t make one Holy Ghost Filled or Anointed of God.

We must be born again of the Water and of the Spirit. We must repent of our first birth which was carnal and earthly and be born again into the Spirit and Truth of Christ Yeshua. No Exceptions!!!

Only when we have been born again and translated into HIS righteousness through the Blood of Christ that was applied at our baptism wherein we put on Christ and became Christ’s; only then have we become Spiritual Israel and our praises in dance and music may be pleasing to God.

BEWARE Of WHO AND WHAT YOU CALL ANOINTED.

BEWARE OF THE DECEPTIONS OF SATAN THAT LABELS HIS WORK AS BEING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT.

What some have come to believe is Holy may actually be demonically contrived and influenced. And it is definitely blasphemous to marry GOD’S HOLY SPIRIT to something wicked and of the devil.

THE HOLY SPIRIT IS NOT ONLY HOLY BUT INTELLIGENT!!!

One evening while visiting a revival, I witnessed a person leading prayer. After they were through praying in a sing-song, melodic and rhythmic tone of voice, they then proceeded to convulse and make grunting and barking sounds like an animal – performing as if they were trying to spit up something – hunching their shoulders and carrying on. This unintelligible and animated behavior was perceived by many as a manifestation of the Holy Spirit.

Then someone jumped out of their seats and began to run around the perimeter of the sanctuary and the musicians began to play what has been termed as praise break music and folks began to dance in what can best be described as distorted rhythmic stomping, twisting, writhing and tremors; all in harmony to the beat of the music and as long as the music played they danced, ran, hollered and rolled around on the floor. The musicians seem to have the power to make these worshipers dance, run and holler unto physically exhaustion. This unintelligible and animated behavior also was perceived by many as a manifestation of the Holy Spirit of God.

I contend that it is not a representation of God’s Holy Spirit but a performance intended to seduce and persuade the viewing audience that they were praying in the spirit, dancing in the spirit, running in the spirit and hollering because of the spiritual unction to do so. They may have been in the spirit but it sure wasn’t the HOLY SPIRIT.

The Bible indicates plainly that it is demonic spirits that cause people to cry out disorderly and uncontrollably and make strange vocal sounds and act unseemly. (Mark 1:27, Mark 9:26, Mark 13:22)

DON’T BE DECEIVED!

Let it be known that the Holy Spirit is intelligent, decent and in order. (1 Corinthians 14:26-33)

1 Corinthians 14:26-33 (NIV)

God’s Has Order In Worship

²⁶ What then shall we say, brothers and sisters? When you come together, each of you has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation.Everything must be done so that the church may be built up. ²⁷ If anyone speaks in a tongue, two—or at the most three—should speak, one at a time, and someone must interpret. ²⁸ If there is no interpreter, the speaker should keep quiet in the church and speak to himself and to God.

²⁹ Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said. ³⁰ And if a revelation comes to someone who is sitting down, the first speaker should stop. ³¹ For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged. ³² The spirits of prophets are subject to the control of prophets.³³ For God is not a God of disorder but of peace—as in all the congregations of the Lord’s people.
