THE MYSTERY OF MY NAME (Personal) [CONCLUSION] By Awotiku Akinlayo David

Image
SESSION 4 Like I said earlier, the name (Akinlayo) is not for ordinary people, it is for someone who could still smile while confronted with big challenges, and such person must be a courageous man. Mind you, being courageous does not mean to be fearless rather it means boldness to face fear and conquer it. In confronting challenges, start with a smile, though to be realistic, smiling does not solve the problem but it gives courage to face the problem and solve it. The name is for someone who remains brave in spite of tough challenges and still sees reasons to smile and sees victory ahead which births Joy, such a person is the one that should rightly say to himself ‘Akin-ni-ayo-mi’ meaning ‘my bravery is my Joy’ . KING; HOSANNA Finally! Let me quickly talk briefly about my nickname, it is not new neither is it different, it also has its own meaning. ‘King’ was taken from my name ‘King David’. ‘Hosanna’ on the other hand is a Greek word from the Hebrew word ‘hoshi’a na’ ...

THE MYSTERY OF MY NAME (Personal) [AKINLAYO] By Awotiku Akinlayo David

SESSION 3 AKINLAYO This is the name I love most among all the names that was given to me by my parents, it’s like a Yoruba representation of David. Many see this name to be meaningless; in fact one of my pastors categorically told me to my face that the name is meaningless in this modern generation. Hold it! Don’t think much! Let’s review the name together and conclude if it is meaningless or not, let also clear something out: it is impossible for me to have a meaningless name when my life is meaningful. Akin-la-yo: Akin means ‘a brave warrior’, as in the story of my surname, my forefathers or ancestors were brave warriors of their time. ‘Layo’ is a combination of two words ‘ni/li’ (according to Yoruba bible translation) and ‘ayo’, means ‘joy’. Back in the Old Testament, if you critically check through the places where wars were fought and won, there is always an uprising of songs, galore of celebrations for victories. An instance was the case of Jephthah (Jdg.11:34), also...

THE MYSTERY OF MY NAME (Personal) [DAVID] By Awotiku Akinlayo David

SESSION 2 DAVID This is a very common Christian name meant for special and extraordinary persons in the world (lols many will be jealous now, don’t worry you are unique also) If I am opportune to come back to this world and name myself, David will be the first name that will come into my mind. The qualities of David from the bible were specially arranged and extraordinarily different from any other person. In Acts.13:22, we clearly see the testimony of God Himself towards David, ‘a man after God’s heart’ so are we the David of our generation, we are unique, special and handsome (just like me) because we are God’s beloved. Actually, David from the original Hebrew word, it is from the word ‘dawidh’ which means ‘Beloved’ . According to 1Sam.16:18, He was skillful in playing harp, mighty man of valor, man of war, prudent in speech, handsome in look and basically, THE LORD WAS WITH HIM. I kept on wondering how can a musician be a warrior as well and how can a warrior be ha...

THE MYSTERY OF MY NAME (Personal) [AWOTIKU] By Awotiku Akinlayo David

THE MYSTERY OF MY NAME (Personal) By Awotiku Akinlayo David Name! Name!! Name!!! I am so impressed that everyone has been given different names as a means of identification, it is advisable to have more than 2 or 3 names since names can be given in remembrance of someone dead, or the mode of birth, the place, the time, the day or what was given birth to with the person, and especially what happened at the time such person was given birth to. These are memories that affect parents either positively or negatively and sometimes it affects the name bearer if peradventure he understands why he was given that name. This is what prompted me into writing about my name and exposing the mysteries hidden therein. We will be considering my names one by one as I unveil the mystery behind them both physically and spiritually, just follow keenly. AWOTIKU Most people who come across my name have pronounce this name wrongly, amongst them were Yoruba natives despite the fact that the nam...

COMMISSIONER FOR CHRISTIAN AFFAIRS (MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS SPIRITUALLY) by Awotiku Akinlayo David

Image
COMMISSIONER FOR CHRISTIAN AFFAIRS (MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS SPIRITUALLY) You know of Bishop Oyedepo whose prosperity is sound. You also know of Johnson Suleiman whose prophecies and words of knowledge are accurate. You tell of Pastor Adeboye whose miracles are real and active. You can talk very well about Kathryn Khulman whose presence is powerfully felt that people get slain at her finger point. You proudly declare of Lawrence Oyor whose angelic chants are spiritually loaded and supernaturally strong that at the sound of his voice, your spirit is edified and fire is imputed into you. You wonderfully quote of Kenneth Haggin who rightly divides the Bible that by the virtue of his exegesis of the scriptures, your eyes of understanding is enlightened to new rhemas. After proclaiming wonderfully well about these great men of God’s exploits and more of them, after sharing different testimonies about them, you concludes by saying “these people are mad for God, they are abnormal ...

But before we talk on the gifts, I want us to first know which spirit is the source of this gift? Whose spirit gives spiritual gifts and how does the spirit works? Where is the spirit from? Now let's start from Genesis 1:1. Bible says ...

THE HOLY-GHOST-RIDER By Awotiku Akinlayo David

THE HOLY-GHOST-RIDER By Awotiku Akinlayo David I could remember vividly one of the famous American movies in 2007 was Ghost-Rider. The movie portrayed Nicholas Cage who is always possessed at night with a demonic spirit of fire. Everything about him would carry fire, his appearance, his face, his suit, his weapons and even his bike will be burning with fire. Wherever the bike passes, there is a fire impact that follows, the ground will get burnt and everything around it would explode and catch fire. His chains consume his enemies when used against them. Our consumption by the Holy Ghost cannot birth a presumption by the creatures if there is no impartation. The best way to convince the world that you’ve got the Holy Ghost inside of you is the fire impartation that follows you everywhere you go and those who caught the fire by the virtue of your presence. People will soon get tired of your fire if it is hired because it will soon expire. To set the world on fire for God, ...
