Text: 1Chronicles.15:29
Dance is one of the important charactristics of human. Whenever we feel fullness of happy in ourselves we urge to dance. We Indians mostly have shy to dance in public. If any dancing in the street how can we see them, we can think that they may have psychological problem, or they may alcohilics. But we never see them as a normal persons. Because, in our culture, dancing in the street is a sign of indescent. But the same time, we can see many are dancing in our religious festivels, many people dancing before their Idols in festivels. It is very common in India. But the political leaders never dance in public. If any political leader will dance in a religious feativels we never vote them again, because it is not a quality we are expecting from them. We are expecting only the leadership qualities from them.
But here we see in our scripture passage that, the king of Israel dancing in public. why he is dancing? The king and the elders decided that to take the ark of the covenant of the Lord from the Obed-Edom's house to Jerusalem. So the king David got so much happy, and forget all about himself, He is playing music, and dancing before the ark. Before the public he was dancing without any shy. Why the King behave like this? because David always gives important to the God almigty and His words. He clearly know that his power and authority are all nothing before God, only the grace of the God almigty he got this authority, so he didnt care about his authority he give important to the Lord, this is the secret of David's success.
Now we are in the final days of 2011, within a two days we will finish it of. How it happend? how many problems we faced this year, how many accidents we seen this year? how many earthquakes we seen this year? inspite of all theses dangers still we are living with peace. How? only because of the God of david. He is the source of our life and salvation. He is ready to give His life to save us. So inspite of all our New Year celebarations giving most important to the Jesus and waiting for His grace and blessings will definitely give us a blessfull NEW YEAR. Amen.
In Christ.

When the ark of the Lord’s promise came to the City of David, Saul’s daughter Michal looked out of a window and saw King David dancing and celebrating, so she despised him.
