His Prophets

"7. Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing,

but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets."

Amos 3:7



 

One of the many ways that our Father in Heaven has shown us His love for us, is by calling Prophets to guide and direct us, according to His word. The first prophet in this dispensation was Joseph Smith. When Joseph Smith inquired of God as to which church was true and which one he should join, God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ appeared to him and told him that none of them were complete, and that he would be the one to help them restore God's complete church on the earth. This is such a blessing! This scripture in Amos tells us that God will inform His prophet of the action He wants taken, and the way He wants to go about it. I KNOW that we have a prophet on this earth today, President Thomas S. Monson, and that He receives revelation from God so as to help lead and guide the rest of us on our earthly journey. I love President Monson, and I love my Heavenly Father. I am grateful that He has given us prophets and that He continues to show His love for me every day.

 

 

"I need not remind yout that this cause in which we are engaged is not an ordinary cause. It is the cause of Christ. It is the Kingdom of God our Eternal Father. It is the building of Zion on the earth, the fulfillment of prephecy given of old and of a vision revealed in this despensation."
