Beauty entrepreneur and Marini Naturals Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Michelle Ntalami has declared that she is born again, having given her life to Jesus Christ.

Having come from a period of absence from social media, she returned and did what her more than 543,000 Instagram followers did not see coming; she deleted every single one of her Instagram posts, including her sultry photos which enhanced her status as a celebrity figure in the country.

Instead, she replaced them with a Bible verse from Isaiah 43:18-19, captioned, “Welcome to the all-new Michelle Ntalami.”

She followed this with a photo of herself dressed in white, arms outstretched, and a heartfelt caption revealing her spiritual journey.

The photo was accompanied by a detailed Instagram post on Tuesday, May 21 in which she opened up on her first encounter with God over the course of her entrepreneurial career.

"I have done my fair share of publicity for myself, others and brands. But today, I do it for The Lord Jesus Christ. I have received the greatest gift one could ever have! On the 21st of August 2023, I had a life-changing encounter with God Himself.

"As an astute businesswoman, life was beautiful. However, behind the success lay a heart that was deeply wounded by different human experiences along the journey of my life. Being an empath, the hurt began to take a toll. Last year, I hit rock bottom. One night in total surrender, I cried out to God questioning His existence," she revealed.

During her troubles, she described feeling a voice of God calling her three times and opening up her eyes to see His existence, adding that God had shown her visions for one hour as well as shared with her a number of aspects of her life, which she noted she would share in time.

"In an instant, I felt the most overpowering rush of love and light engulf me! A thunderous, beautiful voice called my name “Michelle” 3 times. He blinded me and threw me to the floor. In that moment, knew I was in the presence of the Lord!

"Then God said; ‘Yes I am real. Yes, I have seen your pain and I have been there through it all. Yes, I AM.’ Then, for about an hour, God showed me visions and spoke to me about so many things in my life. The depth of this entire conversation and experience cannot be put into words," she added.

Explaining her social media absence, Ntalami attributed this to God isolating and sanctifying her to the point of even guiding her when to go out to the world- exactly nine months today.

"From that day, my life has never been the same. God healed my heart and set me free. I’ve experienced a peace like no other. I’m not perfect. Walking with Christ is a journey. I was a sinner, saved by the Blood of Jesus. And my past life is a true testimony to this," she added.

In narrating to her fans the difference between the old and new Michelle Ntalami, she first revealed that she had fully given her life to Jesus.

Secondly, she announced that everything she does in her life, including all her influence on social media, will all be for the Glory of God, a matter which could explain why she deleted every single past photo from her Instagram account.

"Third, I will be on fire for God because He was on fire for me! So may I decrease as He increases. And as one of the visions He gave me, may my story save souls and touch the world!" she added.

She encouraged friends, fans, followers and even foes interested to join her as she embarked on her new chapter.

Ntalami in 2023 made some monumental life decisions, among them quitting her consumption of alcohol. On September 5, 2023, she marked one month doing this.

The 39-year-old sultry and curvaceous social media personality was this year, on April 3, selected by the United Nations Economic Commission For Africa (UNECA) to represent Africa in the 2024 Entrepreneurial Conference.
