INCLUDEPICTURE "" \* MERGEFORMATINET MISSION STATEMENT INCLUDEPICTURE "" \* MERGEFORMATINET The mission of the Majestic Life Church Dance Ministry is to minister to the body of Christ through creative expressions of worship, praise, and prophesy through dance. The MLDM will use God-given talents to exhibit an art form through which to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ, reach the lost, encourage the hardened hearts, lift the heavy-burdened, and inspire the lost seed towards salvation. The Ministry will support the mission, vision and core values of Majestic Life Church through creation and promotion of an atmosphere of praise and worship through dance in a visual form and through the art of biblical story-telling in dance proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ.??The mission of Majestic Life Church is to minister, motivate, and mentor members to mature in Christ and maximize their gifts in Him that they might live the Majestic Life!REQUIREMENTS FOR PARTICIPATIONBe a member in good standing at Majestic Life Church, and obtain a Certificate of Membership. taking the new members class which is held the 3rd Monday of each month at 7 p.m. Believe in your heart and know in your Spirit that you have been called to Minister to God and to His people through the creative expression of dance. Those who dance with a clear message speak to others for their strengthening, encouragement, and comfort. He who dances with an unclear message edifies himself, but he, who dances prophetically, or with a clear message, edifies the church (1Corinthians 14:1-25). Be willing to empty yourself so that the infiltrating power of the Holy Spirit can fill you in a manner that it is reflected when you dance unto the Lord.Understand and appreciate the Mission, Vision and Core Values of Majestic Life Church (for reference please visits ). Be willing to surrender your gift of dance unto the Lord, to be true worshippers & praisers that we may be able to pour into other lives.Represent a Holy Lifestyle in your daily life. (I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. Romans 12:1 )Note on Prior Experience:Prior experience, training or talent are helpful, but must be reigned in and brought under submission of the Holy Spirit to ensure that such talent, training or experience are not used as a tool of the enemy to bring pride into the dance. One’s heart attitude towards the Lord will be the determining factor of the level of anointing that is upon the dance. Without anointing, we are “destructive fire”. It is only with the anointing that we can exhibit the power of God and bring forth the fruit of the Holy Spirit. If there is no fruit, God’s people will not prosper from the dance.QUALITIES OF A MAJESTIC LIFE CHURCH DANCERSpirit of Excellence – “And David danced before the LORD with all his might.” 2 Samuel 6: 14Praiser - “Let them Praise His Name in the Dance.” Psalm 149: 3“Thou have turned for me my mourning into dancing, thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness . . .
