One thing I struggled with as I landed in Canada was purchasing
Yes, like to buy stuff
My head would not just stop conversion of Dollar to Naira
When I want to buy “sweet” and I see $3 the Nigerian in me would quickly do the math
And I’m like “how can I be licking sweet of 5000 naira?
How can I eat biscuit of 15,000 in one sitting??
On and on it went
It was such a struggle
I had to repeatedly tell myself,
“you’re not in Nigeria and this is not naira you want to spend”
It took a while but my brain switched
And the Holyspirit brought something powerful to my heart
Child of God, can I preach to you today ????

This happens to a lot of us
When you come into Christ, the Bible tells us that “for He that is in Christ is a new creature, old things are passed away and all things have become new”
Sometimes, our minds have lived in Babylon for too long
And so even after you come to Christ, it doesn’t want to change
You keep doing “conversions”
Your lips still want to talk like the Babylonians
The sounds of Egypt are still ringing in your ears
Your spiritual reality has changed but your mind is stuggling to catch up
And this discourages a lot of people because they are confused at what is happening
That’s why the Bible says “ And be ye Renewed by the transformation of your mind”
The devil is still lying to you and reminding you of your guilt
Evil spirits still want to come and torment you at night
You need the WORD
You need to be loaded and soaked in God’s word
You identity has changed
Your location has changed because you’re now seated with Christ in heavenly places
You need to constantly renew that mind in the word
And tell the devil , my address has changed
I know I was so bad
I know I’ve made mistakes
But Jesus calls me new now and so I’m new in Christ
When the devil wants to shout his lies to you, scream back the truth of Gods word!
Send that devil back to hell!
I remain your Sister in Christ, #womanengraced

@IamOlajideAwe And there we go again. This comparison isnt it at all...and i keep asking this question. Why dont you guys want to come back if life is really that difficult over there? 😕
Hmm this trend #HorribleBosses reminds me of one Imelda..the most toxic boss i have ever come across. I really want to write a lot but she is not worth one second of attention. She sure is licking her wounds already. I choose to leave her in the past, exactly where she belongs.
Those boys legit went back to dance in front of their replacements at Chicken Republic 😅😅😅🙈🙈
I can't!!
They hadn't been paid for a month they said...
Poor boys, trying to keep body and soul together in these harsh environment...
