Soul E’s Ex-wife Narrates How She Survived Devastating Fire

 
I almost got burnt on Thursday November 5, 2015. My house got burnt but I’m hale and hearty (Praise God). It was a day I saw God show up like never before, I must say prayer works.I got back home from work at about 8pm and being so tired, I slept off in the sitting room. 
 
I was jolted out of sleep by a loud sound at about 12:45am (Midnight), it was the sound of the explosion of the Tv in my bedroom. By the time I got up to check, my bedroom was on fire, I couldn’t do much as I live alone so I had to run out and start shouting for help. 
 
Neighbours started coming out, everyone running ‘helter skelter’ to contain the fire. Since no one could get into the house because of the smoke, they found a ladder, broke the windows and started pouring water from up (it was like a movie), the more they poured, the more the flames went up, the ac exploded while efforts were being made, no one thought the fire could be put out that night, neighbours started moving out their cars and some their families. 
 
In my confusion I still kept praying and calling on the Lord Jesus to show up and he did. We called the fire service, they called back after 30 mins to ask if the information was authentic, they didn’t show up. At about 1:30am three guys showed up from no where, they took it personal, they insisted on getting inside, with the small fire extinguisher that was being used from the top of the ladder, they went inside, put out the fire and came out unhurt, one of the neighbours gave them a bottle of wine and they left, we haven’t seen them again since then, God obviously “sent” them.
