Section 26


“Behold, I say unto you that you shall let your time be devoted to the studying of the scriptures, and to preaching, and to confirming the church at Colesville, and to performing your labors on the land…”
What I learn from this is the Lord places a high priority on studying the scriptures and putting him first in our lives.  Then we are to share his word by living the gospel in our homes and communities.  Finally, we need to work and support our families both in the home and in our employment.
He concludes this revelation by reminding Joseph that all things were to be done by common consent in the church and to us we need to do all these things by faith.
Faith is the key.  We need the spiritual gift of faith which is one of the greatest of all of the gifts of the Spirit.  It is essential in casting out fear.  It is what gets us through each day!
