When we hear mystery fire, our minds often drift to that unforgettable moment in Acts 2:1–4, when the Holy Ghost descended as cloven tongues of fire upon the disciples. But today, I share with you a different kind of fire—unexpected, unexplained, and deeply symbolic. A literal fire. A mystery fire.
In the early hours of this morning, around 3:00 AM, I was abruptly awakened by what sounded like a violent explosion. My first assumption? The familiar towing truck making its usual rounds to remove unauthorized vehicles from the lot. But when I peered through the blinds to confirm, what I saw stunned me—a car, completely engulfed in flames. See the video below (Video at viewer’s discretion)
“Oh my God, this is strange—this is a mystery,” I exclaimed. A fire in a parked car at such an odd hour, in a silent and tightly packed lot? I quickly woke my daughter, uncertain if we needed to evacuate. Calm and alert, she simply said, “Dad, call 911.” I did so immediately, and within just three minutes, the Fire Department arrived and put out the fire.
It turns out another resident had also heard the explosion, came to the scene and contacted emergency services at the same time.
As the fire was extinguished and the immediate danger passed, I returned indoors and settled into my personal devotion. It was then the Holy Spirit began to speak to me about the event. This wasn’t just a random occurrence. It was a moment packed with meaning and spiritual insight.
I’ll be sharing what the Holy Spirit revealed in an upcoming five-part series titled:
“The Mystery Fire: Lessons Revealed (Parts 1–5).”
Why do I call it a mystery fire? Because I am still trying to wrap my mind around how and why it happened. Could it have been a mechanical failure? Arson? A spiritually symbolic attack? Was it the terror by night or the pestilence that walketh in darkness as Psalm 91:5 describes?
Every strange fire—every invisible assault against your destiny—is extinguished now in Jesus’ name. Amen!
Please stay tuned for “The Mystery Fire: Lessons Revealed (Parts 1–5).” as I share the divine lessons drawn from this peculiar event. You won’t want to miss what God revealed through the flames.
