Papa Tango Foxtrot
I just heard The LORD say the strangest thing!
He said, “Papa Tango Foxtrot is calling you! He’s calling your name. He’s marking your card!”
I asked what He meant?
He said, “I AM calling YOU and everyone in the Church, My Bride.”
I pressed a Him further and I was directed to,
“And David danced before The LORD with all his might. And David was wearing a linen ephod,” 2 Samuel 6:14.
The LORD chuckled, obviously enjoying His little joke, but then He said, “Papa Tango Foxtrot is looking forward to seeing you all dance before Me with undisguised joy!”
Finally, I fell into His meaning of Papa Tango Foxtrot!! Doh!
At length, He continued, “The days are coming when you will all dance with joy before Me in your meetings, as I bring great joy to your worship, and later, at the Marriage Supper of The Lamb — you didn’t think there would be no dancing surely — at a Wedding?”
I do believe He’s still chuckling.
He knows my personal discomfort at dancing. Apparently, I “dad-dance” by hopping from one foot to the other in what can loosely be described as ‘rhythm’.
Yet I feel so buoyed by this thought — abandoned dancing before Him in worship, both here and in heaven.
Yes, I can live with that! LOL

Bro. Chris:
In military lingo – “Whiskey Tango,Foxtrot” is like “I can’t believe he double-crossed you like that!” high surprise! Basically, you never saw it coming!
As Jesus is out ‘High Commander’, ‘Lord of the Armies of heaven’ our “Captain” – He is ‘pulling rank on the adversary. When I read your post- I chuckled- cause I could almost picture “Father God – Our “Papa” saying….”I got this covered”. I’m in command. The enemy thinks you’re cornered- but “Commander PAPA” is gonna hem the enemy in on all sides [think Pharaoh at the Red Sea].
And we will all dance, like Miriam, and David, when the King of all shows up. WHISKEY! TANGO! FOXTROT! (And might I add “Bravo”). Any military or Vets get this. Whiskey, Tango, Bravo…God wins! Fun post.
LOL, normally, I would need a whiskey before trying to tango or foxtrot! Love your analogy.
