Need help with messaging

[Lotionseller]

I just recently got an iPhone 6s plus delivered to my house. I now have the 6s plus and the galaxy s5. The galaxy s5 still has my Sim card in it. Whenever someone sends my phone number a text it goes to my galaxy. When I go into my message settings on my iPhone it says waiting for activation for my imessage. I need my iphone to send texts from my number and not my email. How can I fix this?

Is "start conversations from" checked on your phone number?

I'm not sure but should the Galaxy sim be put in the iPhone? I always go iPhone to iPhone never had a Android phone.
It seems iMessage is not registering your number.
