CREATIVITY LACKING OR OVERFLOWING?

Since God is the Master Creator/Artist of the universe, the artists who belong to Christ and are "in Christ" should be the most creative people on the planet. 

However, this will only be true as we remain in fellowship with God and are connected to Him in the spirit.  As we remain divinely connected and in tune with the Master Artist of all time through the Holy Spirit, the result (or fruit) will be holy, God-inspired creativity (through our art, music, drama, dance, etc.).

If you feel your creativity has become stagnant or almost non-existent as an artist, perhaps it is the result of a lack of real, continual fellowship with your Heavenly Father in your spirit?  Consider disconnecting more from the worldly and un-Christlike cultural influences and from your flesh (which profits nothing* and will not produce the desire of the Spirit of God - even artistically), and, instead, immerse yourself more in the presence of God through prayer, His Word, and worship. 

Divine creativity will spontaneously overflow out of the spirits of those who are continually connected to the Spirit of God, especially for those who are called to create for His glory!


Advice for those who desire to remain students in the Master Artist's workshop:

More prayer, more Word, more worship
= more creativity for God's glory!


The Spirit of God is creative and was creative from the beginning:
Genesis 1:1-2 - In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.  The earth was without form and void and darkness was on the face of the deep and the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

Ephesians 2:10
For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Galatians 5:16
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

Galatians 5:24
And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.

1 John 2:16
For all that is in the world - the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life - is not from the Father but is from the world.
