We use our gifts as:

1.)  An offering unto the Lord;

Everyone and everything is called to praise…but when it comes to giving God our offering of Dance for HIS service, we are operating in the area of Liturgy, which is defined in Webster's as; “A form or formulary according to which public religious worship, especially Christian worship, is conducted.”  Therefore we have to be mindful of what is in our hearts before we minister.  As it relates to the Tabernacle of Moses, when the High Priest went into the Holy of Holies, if there was anything unclean or not right (even down to his attire), not only would His sacrifice not be accepted, but he would be killed…God wants pure worship…a pure sacrifice. 

Therefore, we must do as Romans 12:1 says, and present our bodies as a LIVING SACRIFICE.

2.) An opportunity to shift an atmosphere, prophesy, and bring forth healing and deliverance through motion;

This can only be achieved once we have spent time in the Most Holy Place with God.  Your ministry is most effective when you have relationship with the Father.  You know His heart, and what He is saying to His people.  Therefore, you can use what HE gives you to do His work on the Earth.

Let us praise Him in the dance (Psalm 149:3)… worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness (Psalm 29:2).” Dance is an outward expression of freedom to worship.

CDM endeavors to reach the nations, showing the love of Jesus Christ, setting the atmosphere for deliverance and the power of God to move freely.  As dancers, worshippers, ministers and choreographers, we are to be a light in the midst of darkness, maintaining a standard of integrity and artistic excellence that honor this great gift given to us.
