 Bro Adedeji Daniel: I was once a bright student from the back in my early schooling days, a laughing stock at the younger age before I had a change in school due to change of environment. So, I attended Saint Saviours Primary and High school, Ijegun-Ikotun road Lagos, Nigeria. Started from Kg 1 and the boy became quite good was transferred to Pry 2. Spent few years, then from Pry 4 to JSS1. Everyone saw me as bright but I knew I was just average and a competitor.  So from JS1 to SS2 I was having my issues but I became quite an elite in mathematics in SS2 and the rest changed and now is history. 

Interviewer: Were you a prefect in school? You look like someone perfect for headboy. 

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: The prefect story is quite twisted but I eventually was not one. 

 Interviewer: Asides being a fine brother in the Lord, what other activities are your hobbies?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: Am a gamer but it has reduced sha,  singing and learning hymns. The height of my hobbies would designing and sorting knowledge that did not lost. 

 Interviewer: How did you become a member of CAC HALL CHAPEL?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: I was walking jeje from ajanaku in the year 2017 following the road behind. I was new to ilorin then, so I decided to explore the land, after seeing the church in 2017, I told myself I would go there when I gained admission.  I visited 2019 Feb 3 I guess. 

 Interviewer: What department do you belong to at church and are you currently holding any position?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: I work as a technician in the technical unit, as a decorator in the decoration, as a teacher the Sunday school, as a prayer person in the prayer band. I have other prospect in mind though.  As for the position, by grace I was appointed as the PS 1 for the church. 

 Interviewer: Do you have a side hustle or work asides schooling? If yes, would you mind telling us about it and how you started?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: I can't claim I have a hustle, because a hustle is meant to channel in funds but my hustle is quite for free. 

 Interviewer: How are you able to juggle School, Fellowship with God, positions at school/church and business? That is a lot for anyone to handle. Can you share actionable tips on how you were able to work everything out without one affecting the other?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: In the beginning, I didn't even bother to balance, so the fellowship was always affected because I was in the school hostel. But when the realization dawned on me that I was playing pool with my future, I encouraged myself, even when we fall for a long time, we would tarry and cry back to the creator. So gradually I principled myself and had a layout for living without deviating.  Concerning church position and school, I wouldn't say I did anything but basically I let go of the rope of my life to the one who owns it. 

 Interviewer: What day do you consider the best and worst day of your life?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: All days are good for me the best haven't really arrived. The worst hasn't show face.

Bro Adedeji Daniel: I have got pals and no bone marrow pal or jugular pal (I mean no closest). 

Interviewer: What would be your advice to non-believers?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: Alaye you are wasting time that you will later regret you didn't utilize, therefore why the delay?

Interviewer: With the rise of false pastors and funny doctrines, what would you advice believers?

 Bro Adedeji Daniel: Never leave the standard---THE BIBLE.  You are not saved by pastors and the rest but by what you actively engage in and what you know. 

Interviewer: What is your favorite Bible verse and why do you like this verse?

Bro Adedeji Daniel: That Phil 4:8 (Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things). The verse is quite packed with enough information about what I call CAUSES AND EFFECTS, If you don’t do this then you won’t get a cool kind of life. Also I like it because it tell us that there are certain things we ought to engage in as we are driving our life by our choices.

1Pet. 5:7, Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. - AMP. Why worry when you have The ONE who can take care of all your needs? God has always shown us and told us that HE is our father and HE called us HIS son. One of the responsibilities of a responsible father is to cater to the need of his children while it is the responsibility of the child to trust his father and take all his care (needs) to him. Apostle Peter shows us a dimension of GOD as the one that takes care of His people. Cares which is interpreted as anxiety or worry.  Anxiety means an overwhelming sense of apprehension and fears often marked by physical signs (such as tension, sweating, and increased pulse rate), doubt concerning the reality and nature of the threat, and self-doubt about one's capacity to cope with it (Merriam Webster dictionary.)

They are highly respected to perform activities especially in protecting the interest of their country in the foreign country.  Christians are known to be the ambassador of Christ in this world in which we have been commissioned to present and protect the interest of our country. 2 Corinthians 5:20 says “Now then we are ambassadors for Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation .”  This is the great task committed to us by our country leader Jesus Christ to bring unto his kingdom the people of the world and we cannot afford to ignore this assignment. An ambassador representing his country in a foreign country will never forget his primary assignment in that country so also we must not forget our primary assignment. The...

To acknowledge has various definition. Some of them are listed below 1. Admitting the knowledge of something or someone; recognizing it as a fact or truth; declaring one's belief in something or someone. 2. To be grateful of. But for this article, we would be looking at acknowledging as expressing recognition of the rights, efforts or authority of someone. What does it mean to direct? In simple terms: point out or show (to somebody) the right course or way; to guide, as by pointing out the way. You might be wondering, how do the definitions listed above relate with the topic? What significance do they have with the topic being explained? For better understanding, we go back to a verse in the Bible. Proverbs 3vs6: in all your ways acknowledge Him (God), and He (God) will make your paths straight . From the passage, we are made to understand that directions come when we acknowledge God. We will be shown the right path to walk in when we recognise the authority of God upon our lives. ...
