Moroni 10: 3-7

 


How have you been blessed by knowing the truth of all things by the power of the Holy Ghost?

"Behold, I would exhort you that when ye shall read these things, if it be wisdom in God that ye should read them, that ye would remember how merciful the Lord hath been unto the children of men, from the creation of Adam even down until the time that ye shall receive these things, and ponder it in your hearts.

And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.

And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of all things.

And whatsoever thing is good is just and true; wherefore, nothing that is good denieth the Christ, but acknowledgeth that he is.

And ye may know that he is, by the power of the Holy Ghost; wherefore I would exhort you that ye deny not the power of God; for he worketh by power, according to the faith of the children of men, the same today and tomorrow, and forever." (Moroni 10: 3-7)


And here's the beginning part of the commentary entitled: "I can know the truth of all things by the power of the Holy Ghost." : 


"The promise in Moroni 10:3–7 has changed the lives of millions of people around the world. How has it changed yours? As you read Moroni 10:3–7, consider reading more carefully than you may have in the past. You could examine each phrase, asking yourself questions like these: What does this mean? How can I do this better? What experiences have I had with this?"


The promise in Moroni 10:3–7 has changed my life as well. As I acknowledge the power of God in my life more, I've been able to see it working in the details of my life more than ever before. I've been seeing miracles. Mountains (or workload) fled, for instance. 


I know that God has a hand in everything. Everything happens for a purpose. I know He wants me to be close to Him. As I learn more about and draw closer to Him I am becoming more prepared for the adversities that are coming my way. He always does come to my rescue as the Holy Ghost brings to my remembrance what I learned about Him in the very hour of need. He did come to my rescue today. "The headstone got rejected and yet it became the head of the corner." These words came to my mind in my hour of need today. Just as the headstone the Savior Jesus Christ was rejected and yet He became the head of the corner. If the Savior, even being perfect and didn't do anything wrong got rejected big time, it's just a natural tendency for His disciples to experience rejection as well. These thoughts brought peace and joy to me as I experienced rejection today. The Lord is indeed my joy. I am able to find joy as I look to Him in whatever circumstance I find myself in because the Holy Ghost comes and brings all things to my remembrance at my very hour of need.
