[edit] Christian faith
"Prophetic Dance is a distinct form of Sacred Dance in which revelation is received by the dancer from God and manifested into movement to bring forth a message to people. It is important to understand that revelation is revealing or communicating divine truth that is revealed by God to people. God gives revelation through people in a number of creative ways, such as singing, writing, drama, instrumental music, and dance."[1]
