The New Man is now in charge
Some of my experiences since I met the New Man
My love for Jesus is one of the most consistent things I can remember since childhood but so also has been my insecurity and inadequacy.
This constant need to "please" God and men. I was one of those that have stayed on the move from pillar to post, program to program "searching for God" by just amassing knowledge with no tangible proof of what I'd received. So my first testimony is I met the New Man in the month of June and this is November. Inconsistency has always been one of my major vices but so far Our relationship has only grown. We keep an open communication link all day. I have been learning experientially to trust Him and not to rely on my own ability. Because He is the one at work in me, both to will and to do of his good pleasure.
Secondly, I had a very "interesting" habit. Formed from the challenge been thrown around in my Christian circles both consciously and subconsciously of how heavily vested everyone was in various spiritual activities, coupled with my eagerness to please God with my physical strength, I developed a fasting habit. I was also secretly using it as a weight loss therapy because people were constantly making snide comments about my being over weight and it seriously affected my self esteem. I had fasted so much, it had even hurt my health but I didn't stop, until I met the New Man. He gradually weaned me off that self dependence. He showed me a better and a balanced way to walk with God. He now regulates both my fasting and prayer, all is done at His bidding. And I can say I currently enjoy a more balanced nutrition, health and spiritual nourishment.
My self esteem is bouncing in the Lord. I went from severe inferiority complex to waxing strong on superiority complex🤭🤭😇.
His love continues to overwhelm me ☺️☺️🤗🤗 ( Student NBC 04)
