Moses 7:62 "sweep the earth as with a flood"

Elder David A. Bednar of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles:

“I exhort you to sweep the earth with messages filled with righteousness and truth—messages that are authentic, edifying, and praiseworthy—and literally to sweep the earth as with a flood” (“To Sweep the Earth as with a Flood,” BYU Campus Education Week devotional, August 2014).

Moses 6:31 "'Why is that I have found favor in thy sight?"

Elder Neal A. Maxwell:

   "God does not begin by asking us about our ability, but only about our availability, and if we then prove our dependability, he will increase our capability!" (Ensign, July 1975, "It's Service, Not Status, That Counts," p. 7.)

President Monson:

   "Now some of you may be shy by nature or consider yourselves inadequate to respond affirmatively to a calling.  Remember that this work is not yours and mine alone.  It is the Lord's work, and when we are on the Lord's errand, we are entitled to the Lord's help.  Remember that whom the Lord calls, the Lord qualifies."  (CR, April 1996)

Moses 3:17 "Choose For Thyself"

President Joseph Fielding Smith summarized the choice presented to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden:

“The Lord said to Adam, here is the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. If you want to stay here then you cannot eat of that fruit. If you want to stay here then I forbid you to eat it. But you may act for yourself and you may eat of it if you want to. And if you eat it you will die” (“Fall--Atonement--Resurrection--Sacrament” [address given at LDS Institute of Religion, Salt Lake City, Utah, Jan. 14, 1961]).

Moses 3:22 "The Crown of Creation"

President Gordon B. Hinckley:
First let me say to you sisters that you do not hold a second place in our Father's plan for the eternal happiness and well-being of His children. You are an absolutely essential part of that plan.

Without you the plan could not function. Without you the entire program would be frustrated. As I have said before from this pulpit, when the process of creation occurred, Jehovah, the Creator, under instruction from His Father, first divided the light from the darkness and then separated the land from the waters. There followed the creation of plant life, followed by the creation of animal life. Then came the creation of man, and culminating that act of divinity came the crowning act, the creation of woman.

Each of you is a daughter of God, endowed with a divine birthright. You need no defense of that position (Ensign, Nov. 1996, 67).

Moses 3:18 "Help Meet"

Linda K. Burton, April Conference 2015:
We know from the scriptures that “it is not good that … man should be alone.” That is why our Heavenly Father made “an help meet for him.” The phrase help meet means “a helper suited to, worthy of, or corresponding to him.” For example, our two hands are similar to each other but not exactly the same. In fact, they are exact opposites, but they complement each other and are suited to each other. Working together, they are stronger.

Moses 3:3 Sabbath Day Observance

President Nelson Taught:

How do we hallow the Sabbath day? In my much younger years, I studied the work of others who had compiled lists of things to do and things not to do on the Sabbath. It wasn’t until later that I learned from the scriptures that my conduct and my attitude on the Sabbath constituted a sign between me and my Heavenly Father. With that understanding, I no longer needed lists of dos and don’ts. When I had to make a decision whether or not an activity was appropriate for the Sabbath, I simply asked myself, “What sign do I want to give to God?” That question made my choices about the Sabbath day crystal clear.(“The Sabbath is a delight, President Nelson, April 2015 General Conference.)

Moses 2:27 "In God's Image"

President Thomas S. Monson:
“God our Father has ears with which to hear our prayers. He has eyes with which to see our actions. He has a mouth with which to speak to us. He has a heart with which to feel compassion and love. He is real. He is living. We are his children, made in his image. We look like him, and he looks like us” (“I Know That My Redeemer Lives,” Ensign, Apr. 1990, 6).

Moses 2:28 "Earth Is For Families"

Elder Russell M. Nelson:
“Grand as it is, planet Earth is part of something even grander--that great plan of God. Simply summarized, the earth was created that families might be” (“The Creation,” 85).

Moses 1:33 "World's Without Number"

President Brigham Young said: “How many earths are there? I observed this morning that you may take the particles of matter composing this earth, and if they could be enumerated they would only be a beginning to the number of the creations of God; and they are continually coming into existence, and undergoing changes and passing through the same experience that we are passing through” (in Journal of Discourses, 14:71).

Moses 1:13 "I am a son of God!"

President Dieter F. Uchtdorf of the First Presidency:

“You are something divine--more beautiful and glorious than you can possibly imagine. This knowledge changes everything. It changes your present. It can change your future. And it can change the world. …

“Because of the revealed word of a merciful God, … you have felt the eternal glory of that divine spirit within you. You are no ordinary beings, my beloved young friends all around the world. You are glorious and eternal. …

“It is my prayer and blessing that when you look at your reflection, you will be able to see beyond imperfections and self-doubts and recognize who you truly are: glorious sons and daughters of the Almighty God” (“The Reflection in the Water” [Church Educational System fireside for young adults, Nov. 1, 2009]; LDS.org).

Moses 1:12 Satan's Timing

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland, Ensign, Mar. 2000
But Moses’ message to you today is: Don’t let your guard down. Don’t assume that a great revelation, some marvelous, illuminating moment, the opening of an inspired path, is the end of it. Remember, it isn’t over until it’s over.

What happens to Moses next, after his revelatory moment, would be ludicrous if it were not so dangerous and so true to form. Lucifer--in an effort to continue his opposition, in his unfailing effort to get his licks in later if not sooner--appears and shouts in equal portions of anger and petulance after God has revealed Himself to the prophet: “Moses, worship me.” But Moses is not having it. He has just seen the real thing, and by comparison this sort of performance is pretty dismal.

...With any major decision there are cautions and considerations to make, but once there has been illumination, beware the temptation to retreat from a good thing. If it was right when you prayed about it and trusted it and lived for it, it is right now. Don’t give up when the pressure mounts. Certainly don’t give in to that being who is bent on the destruction of your happiness. Face your doubts. Master your fears. “Cast not away therefore your confidence.” Stay the course and see the beauty of life unfold for you.

Psalms 119:105 Scriptures- Stalwart Friends

Elder Richard G. Scott:

“[The scriptures] can become stalwart friends that are not limited by geography or calendar. They are always available when needed. . . . Learning, pondering, searching, and memorizing scriptures is like filling a filing cabinet with friends, values, and truths that can be called upon anytime, anywhere in the world. . . .

“. . . [Memorizing a scripture] is like discovering a new individual who can help in time of need, give inspiration and comfort, and be a source of motivation for needed change” (“The Power of Scripture,” Ensign, Nov. 2011, 6).
