CAN ORDINARY PEOPLE RECEIVE REVELATION?

What Joel, the Book of Mormon, Joseph Smith, and the Nemenhah Sacred Records Say About Dreams, Visions, and Seeking Christ Listen to the NEW Narration and Song:    Come Unto Christ _____________________________________________________________________________________ Last night I had a dream. It wasn’t dramatic. I wasn’t given a long message. I simply saw pages. And somehow I knew what they were: The Book of Joel. That caught my attention because I had not been studying Joel. I had not been thinking about Joel. So this morning I began asking a very simple question: Why Joel? I am not going to tell anyone that I know exactly what the dream meant. I have learned to be careful about making claims like that. But I do know what the dream caused me to do. It caused me to open the scriptures. And what I found there touched me deeply.

ðŸŠķ King Benjamin and the Covenant Circle

Image
  ðŸŠķ King Benjamin and the Covenant Circle A thought kept growing in me after pondering sacred circles… and after wondering whether the iron rod might be a spoke leading us to Christ the Center… another scripture opened up. King Benjamin. And I began to see something I’d never really noticed before. Maybe King Benjamin was showing us a covenant circle. Not as ritual. As a people. As a way of living. When Benjamin gathers the people, they don’t just come hear a sermon. They gather   round about the temple. I’ve read that for years. But this time those words caught me. Round about. Around a center. Families encircling holy ground. Mosiah even says every tent door faced the temple.   That is an astonishing image. Every home oriented toward the holy. Every family turned toward God. Tell me that doesn’t preach. And I had a thought: That almost looks like a wheel. A center. And a people gathered around it. Not unlike what we were pondering about prayer circles. Not unlike what ...

ðŸŠķ Moroni Raised a Standard, Not Just a Banner

  ðŸŠķ Moroni Raised a Standard, Not Just a Banner After pondering sacred circles… and Lehi’s tree at the center… and King Benjamin’s people turned toward the temple… my thoughts kept moving to Moroni. And a strange thought came. Maybe the Title of Liberty was not just a battle flag. Maybe it was a call to return to Center. Stay with me. When Moroni rent his coat and raised that standard… he didn’t raise a slogan. He raised a covenant. “In memory of our God…” That comes first. God first. Center first. Then religion. Then freedom. Then peace. Then wives and children. (Interesting order, isn’t it?) Alma makes that order explicit.   That has always moved me. Because Moroni wasn’t just defending territory. He was trying to keep a people from losing their spiritual center. That feels bigger. And I began wondering— what if the Title of Liberty was a kind of sacred standard… a visible reminder: Remember who stands at the center. Remember who you are. Remember your covenant. That sounds...

📖 Discovery 6 🏛️ Endowment from Heaven The Covenant Is Meant to Be Lived

  📖 Discovery 6 🏛️ Endowment from Heaven The Covenant Is Meant to Be Lived "Come and see." Truth does not compete with truth. It completes it. Listen to the NEW Narration:   You Are the TEMPLE    ❓ The Question When I first entered the temple, I felt I had stepped onto holy ground. I made sacred covenants. I felt closer to God. But over the years, another question began to grow in my heart. Was the endowment meant to end in the temple? Or... Was it meant to begin there? That question eventually led me to one of the most beautiful teachings in the Nemenhah Sacred Records. 📜 The Bible From the beginning, God's desire has not simply been to dwell in sacred buildings. His desire has been to dwell within His people. Paul taught: "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?" 1 Corinthians 3:16 The temple points us toward becoming a holy people. 📘 The Book of Mormon The Book of Mormon teaches the same pattern. We come unto...

ðŸŠķ The Story Continues ---- When the Creator Chooses Ordinary People for Extraordinary Work

  ðŸŠķ The Story Continues When the Creator Chooses Ordinary People for Extraordinary Work   Hear the NEW Narration and Song:     The Nemenhah Sacred Records Sometimes we imagine that God's work moves from one great prophet to another... one miracle to another... one dramatic event to another. But Scripture tells a quieter story. Generation after generation... the Lord prepares ordinary people long before anyone knows their names. Moses spent years tending sheep. David watched his father's flock. John the Baptist grew in the wilderness. Joseph Smith was a farm boy with questions. The pattern is remarkably consistent. God prepares hearts before He entrusts them with sacred things. The Work Never Ended Many people think of history as a collection of disconnected chapters. But the Lord sees one continuous story. He scattered Israel. He promised to gather Israel. He spoke through ancient prophets. He continues to call people to Christ today. The work of the Good Sheph...

ðŸŽĩ Wednesday Music Reflection ðŸŒŋ You Say

  ðŸŽĩ Wednesday Music Reflection ðŸŒŋ You Say Every Wednesday afternoon I like to share a piece of music that has touched my heart. This week it is: ðŸŽķ You Say – Lauren Daigle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIaT8Jl2zpI Before reading any further, take a few minutes and listen. Then come back. 💧 So Many Voices We live in a noisy world. The news has a voice. Social media has a voice. Friends have a voice. Critics have a voice. Our fears have a voice. Even our past mistakes have a voice. And sometimes, if we're not careful, all those voices become louder than the Lord's. What Do You Say? One of the questions I've been asking myself lately is this: When all the other voices are speaking... Can I still hear His? The world may say I am not enough. The Lord says I am His child. The world may say I have failed. The Lord says I can repent and begin again. The world may focus on weakness. The Lord focuses on who we can become. The Holy Ghost Speaks Quietly One thing I've learned o...

🛞 Walk It Around the Wheel --- Why Wisdom Usually Walks Slower Than Emotion

Image
🛞 Walk It Around the Wheel Why Wisdom  Usually Walks Slower Than Emotion Listen to the NEW Song of Zion:    Walk It Around The Wheel Most mistakes are not made because people are evil. Most mistakes are made because people move too quickly. Someone says something that offends us. A rumor reaches our ears. A headline appears on our phone. A strong feeling rises inside us. And before truth has a chance to speak... emotion has already made the decision. Perhaps that is why the scriptures repeatedly teach us to "ponder." The Lord rarely tells His children to hurry. He teaches them to seek... to ask... to knock... to wait upon Him. Wisdom usually grows more slowly than emotion. Even Good People Can Be Wrong Throughout scripture we find sincere people who misunderstood what God was doing. Peter thought he understood the Messiah. Until he didn't. The disciples argued over who would be the greatest. Martha hurried while Mary listened. Even the Prophet Joseph Smith repeatedly sou...

  📖 Discovery 5 ðŸ‘Đ‍ðŸĶģ The Council of Mothers God's Pattern for Building Zion "Come and see." Truth does not compete with truth. It completes it. Listen to the NEW Narration:  The Council of Mothers   ❓ The Question One question quietly stayed with me for years. If Zion is to become a city of peace... How does God intend it to be governed? The scriptures often speak of prophets... Priests... Kings... Judges... But what if heaven placed the greatest responsibility somewhere we have seldom looked? That question led me to one of the most remarkable discoveries in the Nemenhah Sacred Records. 📜 The Bible From the beginning, God created man and woman together in His image. Throughout scripture, righteous women became instruments in preserving His covenant. Deborah judged Israel. Esther preserved an entire nation. Mary became the mother of the Savior. Faithful mothers shaped generations of believers. The Bible consistently shows that when famili...
