IDOLATRY

It was a moment of sober reflection, moment of self pity, moment of deviating from evil to good to stay away from Idol worshipping and embrace our Lord Jesus in other to receive the blessing of God. People preferred to worship foreign gods than the heavenly host,so many Christians that God and at the same time they are inside shrine doing incantations to other gods, whenever you do that you have eliminated yourself from God's blessing.
   Further, "because of idolatry God's blessing has continued to elude you, therefore get rid of Idol worship in your midst and God will bless you. It's a contradiction for you to see a child of God that called himself a Christian and at the same time practicing idolatry. Most of us what we are suffering today is ancestral manipulations, many families worshipped idols and many families committed lots of evils.
   It is true that Jesus Christ came and sacrificed himself, this means that, any Idol family that exist is because of love of God. Most Christians will use one hand to hold the Bible, and the other to hold charms. You can never claim to be divine and yet you are worshipping idol. Sin can never attract Gods favor and mercy. The Israelites worshipped idols and they were defeated. How can you mortgage your relationship with Jesus, how can you compromise your destiny as a child of God, how can you condescend so low into worshipping idol. Some of us who desire prosperity, without desiring the master, the giver of wealth. We desire chicken without egg, we desire the way without desiring the person that will show us the way. We want to get to our destination without clicking the way that will lead us to that destination, and that is Jesus Christ. We should embrace Christ as our Lord and personal saviours, thereby turning from our evil ways to a good life.

Natural soil

 Natural soils are influenced by rainfall and temperature,heavy rain causes the soil to become leached. High temperatures increase the rate of decomposition of organic matter in the soil, thereby lowering its humus content. Thus, climatic conditions tend to produce poor soils in the tropics and rich soils in the temperate regions. Besides climate and vegetation, the parent rock material also contributes to the quality of the soil. For example volcanic rocks tend to produce fertile soils.    Laterite, a red soil which is a product of leaching, is commonly found in the tropics. It is composed mainly of iron and aluminium compounds,and poor in humus and essential plant nutrients, such as phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium. The black and brown soil of the temperate grasslands are the world's richest soils, with a high mineral and humus content. The light coloured desert soils tend to be very rich in minerals but have a low humus content.    Mainly the soils ar...

READING AND UNDERSTANDING

All reading is geared to understanding. There would be no point in reading if we did not understand what we are reading. However there are many different obstacles in the way of easy understanding of a passage. It is your task as a reader to actively seek to break down the barriers to understanding.    One block to understanding is caused by references in the passage to things that are outside it. Pronoun are the first examples of words that refer to people and objects. Sometimes, it is easy to follow the reference at other times, it is more difficult. Look at the opening sentence of the passage you've just read that begins this way  "She was waiting for us:small, dowdy, dirty..."  Who was waiting? Who was the person waiting for? (Perhaps you would also like to know why she was waiting.)Answers to these questions will surely help you to understand and thus follow the reference. The first thing to do is to ask questions like the ones we have just asked and to read t...

Experiencing grief

Grief is a natural response to loss. It’s the emotional suffering you feel when something or someone you love is taken away. The more significant the loss, the more intense your grief will be. Grieving is a highly individual experience; there’s no right or wrong way to grieve. How you grieve depends on many factors, including your personality and coping style, your life experience, your faith, and how significant the loss was to you. Inevitably, the grieving process takes time. Healing happens gradually; it can’t be forced or hurried—and there is no “normal” timetable for grieving . Some people start to feel better in weeks or months. For others, the grieving process is measured in years. Whatever your grief experience, it’s important to be patient with yourself and allow the process to naturally unfold. Emotional symptoms of grief Shock and disbelief. Right after a loss, it can be hard to accept what happened. You may feel numb, have trouble believing that the loss really happen...
