<TITLE>02. Par 5-7</TITLE>L-5 So, I looked around and I thought, "My, where did dancing ever come from?" And I was setting there in the seat of the scornful, of course, you know, so... Not saying nothing. I was afraid to say anything, 'cause I was afraid they might be right and me wrong. So I--I just let it go like that. So I thought, "Now, isn't that terrible though, right here in my Tabernacle?" And this little lady out there, just with her eyes closed, just dancing around... First thing you know, up got another one and started. And I thought, "Oh, my."
So then I begin to rehearse in my mind, that in the Bible they did dance. And I thought, "When they danced, what was it?" Dancing was spoke of when they'd... Pharaoh was pursuing Israel, and all the enemy was drowned. Miriam picked up a tambourine, begin to beat the tambourine, and begin to dance, and all the daughters of Israel followed her, dancing. I thought, "Well, there they had victory."

L-6 And I read where David, when the Ark had been away so long, and when he returned back, why, he was so happy he started dancing. He had the victory. His sweetheart made fun of him, kinda laughed at him. He said, "Well, you don't like that, watch this." And down there he went, around and around he went again. And I thought, "Well, she set up there and laughed at him, and God put a curse on her. And said, 'David, thou art a man after My own heart.'"
Well, I thought, "The only thing is the matter with me, I just ain't got enough victory, maybe." In a few minutes something happened. Now, this might shock you. When I come to myself, I was out there with that little girl dancing out on the floor, that's right. Just the thing that I thought I wouldn't do, I did. And when I was... I was never on a dance floor in my life, but I guess I did it all right. It wasn't... I sure felt awful good. I had a lot of victory after that. So that--that would be all right then, I guess.

L-7 So God's in music. Don't you believe God's in music? Certainly. God is in music, and He's in art; And--and God is in the--in the universe. He's in His creatures, and He's in the church, and He's in His creation; He's in the universe; God's all around, just everywhere. He's here in the Shriner auditorium right now at this night, right present. God's everywhere. I just wonder sometime if He'd just take the shades off of our eyes, till our sight would be fast enough to catch His Presence in the building.
You know, there's all kinds of things going through this building. You know that? There's radio message going through here. There's television pictures coming right through your body. Is that right? But your eye can't pick it up. See? But it's going through anyhow.
So also if we are a magnetic post of the Holy Spirit, then God sends His message out of glory, we can pick it up (See?), just catch it. And it's--that's wonderful, isn't it? It sure is.
