9 years ago, my paradigm shifted.It had been 6 years since I finished secondary school, and I never saw myself heading anywhere. Then God led me to my first job in kitwe. That’s where everything changed.I read my first book by Joel Osteen and, for the first time, saw the positive side of life. My boss had sermons on his laptop, I discovered another man who taught the scriptures like Kobus Vanresburg, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, I listened to him every day. The teachings transformed me from the inside out. I wrote down everything I learned and studied my Bible consistently. A JW friend named Paul also came every week to show me the Scriptures, right up until the day I left for university in 2018. Daniel 2:21 – “He [God] changes times and seasons; He removes kings and sets up kings; He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to those who have understanding.” (NKJV)
When God wants to shift you into a new environment, He first sends His Word to rewire your thinking until you can live the Word without even trying. If you say you have fellowship with God, yet your life experience feels different, you may not be properly aligned to His paradigm — His thought processes and approaches.
I was once an auto spares salesman, and I learned this: when a vehicle’s wheels are misaligned, it drags as it moves. If you don’t correct it, it wears out and wrecks — and that becomes costly.
Many faithful believers today are constantly trying to fix the wreckage because they haven’t aligned to the new paradigm. Life feels like it’s dragging. They’re exhausted and unhappy.
