2 Samuel 6:14-15 And David danced before the Lord with all his might, and David was girded with a linen ephod. So David and all house Israel brought up the ark with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet.
The Ark of the Covenant of the Lord was being transported back to Jerusalem from the Philistines who had taken it. On the way, Uzzah reached out his hand to steady it on the cart, and he was struck immediately. Don’t presume to come near the Holy Presence of God. The Ark stayed with Obed-Edom for three months, and he was greatly blessed.
Then they slowly, deliberately, and carefully moved the Ark to Jerusalem. During the procession there was great rejoicing. David was so excited in the presence of God that he danced before the Lord. This exuberant dancing was apparently pleasing to God, but it did not please his wife Michal. We don’t really know whether she was jealous or thought he was being offensive, but she did not approve of his dancing.To David, it was entirely appropriate that his spiritual excitement should be given physical expression. His exuberance could not be contained: the Lord was coming back to be among them!
Whenever hear the Gospel we should also be so excited that we sing, rejoice, celebrate, and dance before the Lord in the spirit and in our minds. Whether we give outward expression or not, inwardly we may rejoice to high heaven. But what would it look like if we danced our way from the altar of Communion back to the pew? But this is what is going on in our mind after church.
