I Thought Driving On An Empty Tank Was A Miracle Until I Experienced It And ……. by Daejumong(m): 10:02pm On Mar 16
Was on a journey and noticed the fuel light came up on the highway. Was jittery as there was no fuel station around. I eventually drove like 40kms to the nearest station with so much fear and prayers.
Was it a miracle ? I asked a truck driver I met there and he smiled and said cars can still go for many kilometers after the fuel signal comes up.
Did some research and I found this
How many kilometers can you drive on an empty tank?
With some exceptions (Korean-made models, for example), most vehicles can go another approximately 90 to 130 kilometres before the engine sputters and dies, forcing the driver to walk all the way to the nearest gas station or call a roadside assistance service.
Knowledge is power because many people don’t know this including clerics who sometimes ascribe this to a supernatural force and power.

Knowledge is indeed power. So why haven't you provided us with the knowledge of how much fuel is left in a car when the "fuel signal" comes up instead of suggesting your "fear and prayers" made you go an extra 40km?

The chart, put together by YourMechanic, lists the 50 best-selling cars in the United States. The chart might be for the 2015 model year, but most new and older cars will be similar. There's also a trend to pay attention to if your car isn't listed: when the fuel light comes on, nearly every single car has two to three gallons of fuel left. For certain cars, and depending on how you drive, you could have nearly 100 miles until you're running on fumes.

That's done on purpose. Automakers are conservative with the light to keep you from getting stranded, which makes sense. You'd be pretty ticked if the car ran out of fuel within seconds of the light popping on. And if you push it too far after the light, you can't say you didn't have a warning. But if you want to get the most out of a tank of fuel, don't stop for gas when the light comes on.

What you experienced is a miracle but not. Your ignorance of the working of the engine is not a miracle. I remember pastor Adeboye who claimed to have experienced that was s in in the 70s
No modern vehicles then. He drove from Ore in Ondo state to Lago's. That is a real miracle.

Yours also is a miracle, someone provided Aan answer to your ignorance.

Much more than these are happening all over the world. If you read the story of Ayọ Babalola, you will be startled.

Miracles are real.
Happy Sunday.

When you say you drove 90km with an empty tank what are you trying to portray?
That you are special to God than another person who stopped by the way seeking for assistance because his fuel has run out?

You must be joking and deceiving yourself, you don't have any testimony.
All vehicles do not function the same

One thing you guys don't know is that, thr are miracles and they are real, but God doesn't just do miracles recklessly, because he himself has given us functional brains to know the right and wrong and he intervene when human intervention cannot rescue the situation again.

The miracle he did for A, he might decide not to do it for B.

When B not getting miracle that A got, he would come out and be telling trash about God.

If you like saying million thrashes about working of God, it doesn't stop him, being Almighty.

Even if this were true, that is no reason to lie or call things a miracle just because you lack understanding, as that only makes a fool of your god when the knowledge behind the supposed miracle is understood and revealed.

So, what you are saying in whose name Jesus Christ was able to make the blind to see, the lame to walk, deaf to hear, and the dumb to speak... was a false God since Jesus Christ healed even those who not only did not believe in God but also had bad things in them even afterward - Luke 10:13 & Matthew 11:21? lipsrsealed
