Once you are infected with certain diseases, like Lyme disease, you are a carrier forever. There is no permanent way you can get it out of your body.

Christians are carriers of something even more permanent. They many times forget. At the new birth, when someone confesses with their mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in their heart God raised Him from the dead (Romans 10:9), they become infected with the gift of holy spirit. This includes everything wrapped up in that spiritual package, including nine manifestations.

A TEMPLE

What really happens when you experience the new birth is you become a temple, the residence of God Almighty. His presences abides in you.

1Cor 3:16:  Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

1Cor 6:19:  What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?

2Cor 6:16: …for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

I know we do not think about having God resident within us all the time, but His residence is permanent! He is not going anywhere. We have God in us represented by the gift of holy spirit. That is quite something to carry!

As a carrier, I would encourage you to use the spirit daily. Exercise it, manifest it, believe it, love it, be led by it. How?

  • Speak in tongues much.
  • Renew your mind to who you are with God in Christ in you. This will help your believing confession to be more than a conqueror.
  • Walk by the spirit by operating all nine manifestations.
  • Talk to others about it.
  • Trust in it.

Enjoy your spiritual disease by spreading it all over those others without it, and those who have not fully learned God’s Word.

Agape,
