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


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’, meaning ‘to save, please’ in the Old Testament in Psalms 118:25-26. In the New testament, Hosanna means ‘Salvation, thank you’ also it means ‘Praise God’ so ‘Hosanna in the highest’ can also be like this ‘Praise God in Heaven’ which implies that God is to be praised for sending His to give us salvation (Mk.11:9-10) (Matt.21:9,15).
Addition of these two names together, we have this conjunction ‘I am a king that praises and worships the king of kings’ and it gives the name ‘King_Hosanna’. I am proud of the name because it is spiritually weighty and it means I will always give thanks to God for the rest of my life and anyone that calls this name will unconsciously acknowledge God.
There is a saying that ‘your name defines you’ but in my own case ‘I define my own name’ (Selah!). Here concludes the mystery of my name. Thanks for your time and patience. Hope you enjoyed it?
VOTES OF THANKS
But before I drop my pen, I want to thank everyone towards the celebration of my previous birthday. I thank God for another year added to my spiritual age on the 23rd of March and to my real age on the 25th of March. I thank God for the wonderful spiritual birthday gift He gave me even before the birthday date. I also thank God for everyone that wished me well in different styles and means either on social media, messages and calls inclusive, it gives me great joy and it shows that God is using my life to impact some lives through His life in me which is the light of the world. I celebrate everyone, mummies and daddies, friends and well-wishers, I also want to specially celebrate the first person who celebrated me that day, I won’t mention the name so that the person won’t be blushing while reading this article. I intentionally don’t want to mention any name so that I won’t offend or made some people think they are of low values to me and would feel jealous because surely I will omit many names if I decided to list names. But also I must appreciate NCCF Kogi State as a whole for the love shown to me in my last year birthday at the state conference at Ajaokuta, Kogi State. Lastly I also appreciate God for writing my name in people’s heart. Thank y’all; we shall all meet at the top in Jesus name.
Keep enjoying Christ!
Yours Lover,
Awotiku Akinlayo David

(King_Hosanna)
