Suddenly out of the sky three great bolts of lightning flashed simultaneously. What a

display of power. On March 5, 1979, what was called “the most powerful burst of energy

ever recorded” occurred. It was described as follows:

“The burst of gamma radiation picked up by the satellites lasted for only one tenth of a second. But in that brief instant it emitted as much energy as the sun does over a period of three thousand years. If the sun had belched out the same amount of energy, the earth would have vaporized instantly.”

We learn from this account that just as a burst of gamma radiation can vaporize the earth instantly, God’s Word empowered by the Holy Spirit can vaporize your old sinful carnal nature.
