A message to the New Creation
Once the revelation strikes that the new creation does not receive a portion of God but the presence of God Himself, the next question arises naturally: how then do we live in this fullness? If the full payload of the Spirit, Word, and Breath has been deposited into the vessel of the reborn, why do so many live as if they are operating on spiritual fumes? The answer is not a lack of supply, but a lack of surrender. The inheritance is not missing—it is waiting to be released.
Activation is not an act of force—it is an act of alignment. The Spirit of God does not respond to human striving; He flows through vessels that yield, trust, and obey. The believer does not need to beg God for what has already been given. Rather, they must come into agreement with the divine design already written into their reborn being. What is in them by Spirit must be expressed by will.
2 Timothy 1:6 makes this clear: “For this reason I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands.” The gift was already there. The flame existed. But Paul called Timothy to stir it up—to give the fire permission to consume. The same charge now applies to the sons and daughters of God: stir it up. Fan the flame. Release the payload.
The release begins with relationship. No gift functions apart from intimacy with the Giver. It is in the secret place—where Word, Spirit, and Breath converge—that clarity comes and power flows. The gifts are not formulas to master, but expressions of the indwelling Godhead. They respond to presence, not performance. They awaken in the context of communion, not ambition.
The believer must also understand that spiritual gifts do not manifest to build up the self—they exist to build up the body. 1 Corinthians 12:7 declares, “To each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good.” This is why so many walk in dormancy. The gifts are not tools for private elevation—they are expressions for public edification. The more one aims to serve, the more the gifts flow. Selfishness blocks them. Love releases them.
1 Corinthians 14:1 exhorts believers to “pursue love, yet earnestly desire spiritual gifts.” The gifts do not operate apart from love—they are designed to function through it. The fullness of Christ is not just power—it is compassion. Not just miracles—but mercy. The one who desires to walk in the fullness of the Spirit must first walk in the fullness of love.
Faith is the fuel that unlocks what has been deposited. Mark 11:22–24 records Jesus saying, “Have faith in God. Truly I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says is going to happen, it will be granted to him.” This is not motivational language—it is kingdom reality. Faith doesn’t create the gift—it activates the Giver already present.
Romans 12:6 reinforces this: “However, since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to use them properly…” Grace is not given to sit dormant. It is to be employed, exercised, walked in. The new creation is not a reservoir—it is a river. Gifts not released become stagnant. But when exercised in alignment with God’s timing and voice, they flourish.
Obedience is the conduit through which power moves. The believer must not wait for a feeling, but move at the Word. Jesus said, “My sheep listen to My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (John 10:27). Those who move with the Shepherd, move in the Spirit. It is obedience, not charisma, that brings breakthrough. The gifts were never about impressing people—they were always about obeying God.
Releasing the full payload also means releasing control. Many believers block the flow of the Spirit not by sin, but by fear. Fear of looking foolish. Fear of being wrong. Fear of failure. But 2 Timothy 1:7 silences all of it: “For God has not given us a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline.” The new creation does not cower. It commands. It moves with power, covered in love, anchored in sound mind.
Just as the gifts mirror the threefold expression of God—Spirit, Word, and Breath—the believer must engage with all three to function in fullness. To cultivate the Spirit, walk in daily intimacy with God. To activate the Word, absorb and speak Scripture until it is etched into your inner man. To release the Breath, open your mouth in prayer, praise, tongues, prophecy, healing, and truth. You carry the code of the new creation. Speak it into motion.
The analogy remains: you are not a spiritual power strip with a few working outlets—you are a divine power plant. The generator has already been installed. The grid is live. The only question is whether the switch will be flipped. The Spirit is not missing. The gifts are not hiding. The Son of God is in you, and He is waiting for release.
The activation of the gifts is not a special event—it is a lifestyle. It is not a pulpit moment—it is a perpetual condition. The new creation does not wait to be used—it chooses to be usable. There is no spiritual promotion—only submission. And the more one yields, the more one becomes a vessel through which heaven breaks into earth.
You were not born again to be passive. You were born again to be powerful. The same Spirit that hovered over the void in Genesis now hovers within your chest. The same Word that calmed storms now flows through your mouth. The same Breath that raised the dead now animates your every step. You carry the Spirit. You carry the Word. You carry the Breath. You are the evidence that Christ has risen and lives again—this time through you.
The world is not waiting for another sermon. It is waiting for the sons of God to manifest. And the sons of God are those who not only receive the full payload, but release it without fear, without apology, and without delay.
So stir it up. Fan the flame. Release the power.
You are not seeking more—you are stewarding all.
You don’t need to be filled again.
You need to stop holding back.
The time has come to act as who you are.
You are the new creation.
You carry the fullness.
Now walk in it. Speak from it. Move with it.
And release the Giver who lives in you.
