God's Assurance and Protection

I didn’t posted here the fire that happened in our area last week the 13th of this month which razed around 3 compounds destroying more or less 20 houses. That fire was very near our house, it’s actually the 5th house from ours and if you’re in the vicinity of the fire you’ll think that the fire is already beside your house as the black smoke engulfs the surrounding area. It was a nerve-shattering moment and all I did was to kneel and pray hard to God to let the disaster passed without harming us. As I prayed I felt God’s assurance that He’ll protect us from the fire. God is good all the time, He stopped the fire immediately and never let the fire touched the house before us.

After more than an hour of putting off the fire it was declared stable and safe by the firemen who struggled through the inner area of the compound. Some people who live at the back were trapped but found safety in the roof. No casualties were reported either on the residents or in the fire protection group who see to it that they have fire safety products with them before they rescued people and houses. I give all praises and thanks to God.
