RADICAL LOVE



          Similarly,  the  Zion  Maidens—Brides-to-be—are  now  seeing  Christ,

          the  hope  of  glory,  shining  in  splendour  and  majesty,  more  fully
          manifest upon her. She is no longer operating out of the fleshly life, but

          has joined in unity with the Holy Spirit and co-partnership with her
          Beloved. Their lives are now entwined together in the dance of the

          Bride and the Bridegroom, and her Beloved is leading the way.


          There are valuable lessons for all of us to consider as we reflect on the
          act of dancing. Firstly, someone has to lead—without a leader, there

          can be no dance. Secondly, in many forms of dance, the pair has to
          stand close in a posture of embrace. And thirdly, they must learn to be

          in time and step with one another.


          As  I  was  writing  this  section  about  dancing,  I  felt  the  Holy  Spirit
          prompting me to tell you, the readers, that we must not forget: dancing

          is one of the most powerful weapons of spiritual warfare. We are in a
          season  where  God  is  restoring  dancing  back  into  the  Church—

          especially among the men. He is looking for “Davids” who, out of love
          for  Him,  will  worship  and  even  appear  undignified  in  their  total

          abandonment to the One who is worthy of all our praise and worship.

          Those who honour Jesus in this way will delight Him and set people
          free. However, they will also infuriate the religious spirit that lurks in

          many who profess to belong to Christ.

          I speak from  personal  experience and would like to  give you some

          testimony about this before resuming the study.
