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.

Handmade Tiles

Clay can be excavated, moulded and burned without any expensive or elaborate machinery and for centuries clay roofing tiles have been used. There are two qualities of tile: Hand made tiles are moulded from a sandy clay which is pressed into shape by hand pressure so that even if some form of screw press is used the clay will not be heavily compacted. During burning the tiles shrink and there are quite noticeable variations which give a tiled roof attractive appearance. The tiles vary in colour from light brick red to almost black and many of the more expensive tiles are sand faced produce the rough texture which is popular.     Handmade tiles fairly readily absorb water and should not be laid at a pitch of less than 45°to horizontal. If laid at a less pitch these tiles may become saturated in winter and frost will then cause them to disintegrate.      Machine pressed tiles are made from selected pure clays which are thoroughly ground to a fine condition. The clay is mixed with

Reading for word pictures

Writers use many devices to enable the reader to follow the main points of a story. One of these devices employed specially in narrative or story writing is the use of word pictures. Descriptions are built up in such a way, with the addition of details, that the active reader is able to visualize in his mind's eye the scenes the writer set out to create. This is why story reading provides so much individual pleasure. Each individual takes from the story something proportional to what he has put into it. If you read with interest and curiosity, then you will find many word pictures to stimulate your imagination. If, on the other hand, you read passively, letting your eyes and mind glide Over the page, then you will overlook many word pictures and consequently, lose some of the meaning. E.g"it was one January morning, very early a pinching, frosty morning (feeling) the cove all grey with hoar-frost(sight), the ripple lapping softly on the stones(sound), the sun still low and tou
