I heard, “Dancing on the Waves — It is a War Dance!
Beloved! Dance with Me!
I AM calling you to dance upon the waves of chaos.
Don’t be afraid! I AM your Strength.
Walk upon the water. Let My Joy be your strength. Do not sink into depression or let the enemy hold you down. Rise above it all.
This War Dance is in your blood.
I AM stirring the waters within you.
I AM the Rhythm within you. Your feet dance with Mine.
The enemy cannot go where you go. Heaven is on your side. There is a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.
I AM turning your mourning into dancing; I have loosed your sackcloth and clothed you with gladness. The enemy is under your feet.
You are above and not beneath. I have prepared you for battle. It is finished. It is a celebration of Victory!
Take courage! It is I. Do not be afraid. Gladness and joy will overtake you, and sorrow and sighing will flee.
The God of Peace shall soon crush Satan under your feet!
I have calmed the storm to a whisper, and the waves of the sea are hushed.
Dance upon the Waves, My Prophet!
This is War!
Suddenly, in a moment all things shall change!”
WAR DANCE : A dance that intimidates the enemy and instills courage into the hearts of the participants. A dance performed before a battle or after a victory. This dance is a celebration of valor and conquest. These dances imitate the action of the battle itself. A dance performed in preparation for battle or in celebration of victory.
DANCING : Strong’s Hebrew 2342: to whirl, dance, to be born, to bring forth, brought forth
Strong’s Hebrew 3769: to whirl, dance. The Hebrew verb “karar” primarily means to dance or whirl around. It conveys a sense of joyful, exuberant movement, often in the context of celebration or worship. The action described by “karar” is typically spontaneous and expressive, reflecting a deep emotional response, often of joy or reverence.

“The waters saw You, O God; the waters saw You and swirled; even the depths were shaken. The clouds poured down water; the skies resounded with thunder; Your arrows flashed back and forth.

~ Deborah Waldron Fry
Back in the summer when I was recovering from severe burnout and wanting to throw in the towel, the LORD gave me instruction to go get a gym membership and personal trainer. What??? I can barely stand up for more than 5 minutes and you want me to lift weights??? He gave me a vision of him standing on the ocean waves and inviting me to walk on the water with him. The weather was STORMY! HUGE WAVES AND FROTHY. As I took his hand we danced on the waves and then once at the top, we slid down on our butts in joyful giggles. The waved had turned into a playground. What others would find terrifying, he would make a joyful time for me. Within 1 month with my personal trainer and help from massage, he had helped remove the stored trauma from my sympathetic system that was causing the weakness and I was doing 30 minutes of cardio easily and increased my weights from 2.5 lbs to 30. Helping others once again brought joy instead of exhaustion. It paired w an older dream from 2021 blog titled “”we’re going back into the storm!” Those who had made it to safe Harbour and anchor point during COVID as we birthed “Paradigm Shift From Pharaoh’s Storehouse to Priests Storehouse”, where the first storm of COVID was the warning shot across the bow. The second wave would be a direct hit. I was being invited to the officers mess (dining room) by the captain to join the team as we went back into the storm at the peril of our own lives to cast the Paradigm Shift net to rescue the drowning whose ships broke up in the storm. I sensed those ships were the church systems that were prison ships, like Paul’s ship that broke up in the East Wind but NOT A LIFE WAS LOST. Another east wind vision was of a grape cluster violently being shaken but the grapes attached to the vine were dancing while the rotten grapes fell out. Then the east wind snapped off the leafless dry, brittle oak trees (ps 1, lawless ones and no holy spirit living waters) while the palm trees bowed and danced in the hurricane winds with their coconuts without any leaf damage.
What an AWESOME WORD!!! THANK YOU JESUS! Thank you Deborah, Blessings.
HALLELUYAH!!! AMEN!!!
LET THE DANCE BEGIN!!!
Isaiah 61
The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captivesvand release from darkness the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our GOD, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion – to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of His splendor.
Dear sister Deborah, thank you for this lovely and loving message and the added Holy Scriptures.
I promised, not to share more private details, but I know, some of you are waiting for good news, so I must share them: I returned to an International Church, and surprisingly suddenly got invited to come back to the choir where I once was member, 14 years ago. It is more like an old style Anglikan Church, so the timbrels are not standard, but nonetheless, the traditional hymns vibrate and resonate direct to the hearts and souls and even to the bodies of the singers and listeners. Yes, many Deborahs and Miriams will dance and prophecy again ! I declare Isaiah 61 for the New Year that has already started.
