If you are not ready to make a U-turn and jettison your previous nature, you are heading nowhere. As genuinely submit to Jesus, a new nature, identify, character and lifestyle of God is formed immediately. To be the man God wants, you cannot serve two masters. No man opposes divine results on a winning template. Invest in yourself and you grow others. Spend time to pray in the Holy Spirit, that God gave as a guarantee and down payment for your eternity.
