i danced to this song at our wedding ..... only one standing , because i remembered and because David is one of my favourite people in the Bible https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=1480268137441660&set=a.444336251034859 Pastor Jason Answers ·"When David danced before the Lord, he crossed a line many believers still fear crossing—the line where worship costs dignity. His praise was physical, visible, and unfiltered. And it offended someone close to him. Michal saw David’s worship as disgraceful. God saw it as devotion. David’s reply made the issue clear: worship is not about maintaining status, but about honoring God without reserve. He chose humility over image. Scripture then records that Michal bore no children—a stark outcome that follows her contempt for worship. The lesson is unsettling: God does not prize composure over surrender. He does not reward worship that preserves pride. As James reminds us, God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. David’s dancing wasn’t chaos—it was surrender. Michal’s restraint wasn’t wisdom—it was pride. And the story still confronts us today: Are we worshiping with freedom—or managing appearances?"
