Howdy! I have chosen one verse or phrase from each page of the Book of Mormon to share with my family daily. See the list here...

Nephi 11:28 And
I beheld that he (Jesus)
went forth ministering unto the people, in power and
great glory; …
When
we are on God’s errand, He will strengthen and support us! ...God,
today I intentionally helped these people

Nephi 12:10 ...And,
behold, they (Jesus
apostles) are
righteous forever; for because of their faith in the Lamb of God
their garments are
made white in his blood.
Our
faith in Jesus will help us change and become more pure. ...Father,
today I tried to improve by

Nephi 12:17 ...the
temptations of the devil, which blindeth the
eyes, and hardeneth the hearts of the children of men, and leadeth
them away into broad
roads,
that they perish and are lost.
No
good thing comes from Satan. How can I recognize if a choice is a
temptation? ...Father,
thanks for the guidance of the Holy Spirit to help me recognize
temptations and for giving me the strength to choose Your path.

Nephi 13:12 ...I (Nephi) beheld the Spirit of God, that it came
down and wrought upon the man (Christopher Columbus); and he went
forth...
God
uses simple folks like us to do much good. Let
the Spirit of God guide you and be willing to do tough things for
Him. ...God,
thanks for trusting me enough to do your work.

Nephi 13:26 And
after they (the
records)
go forth by the hand of
the twelve apostles of the Lamb, from the Jews unto the
Gentiles, thou seest the formation of that great
and
abominable church,
which is most abominable above all other churches; for behold,
they have taken away
from the gospel of the Lamb many parts which are plain and
most precious; and also many covenants of the Lord have they taken
away.
We
are blessed to have the Book of Mormon and the Joseph Smith
Translation of the Bible to help us understand the Gospel. ...Father,
I thank thee for restoring thy truths and for the many folks
who’ve made the scriptures so readily available to us.

Nephi 13: 37 And blessed are
they who shall seek to bring forth my Zion at
that day, for they shall have the gift
and
the power
of
the Holy Ghost; and if they endure unto
the end they shall be lifted
up at
the last day, and shall be saved in the everlasting kingdom of
the Lamb; ...
Zion
is a place where God would dwell! Today I will try to make
whatever place I am in a place where God would feel comfortable. ...God,
I think you would have been comfortable spending time with me when

Nephi 13: 40 And
the angel spake unto me, saying: These last
records,
which thou hast seen among the Gentiles, shall establish the
truth of the first,
which are of the twelve
apostles of
the Lamb, and shall make known the plain and precious things which
have been taken away from them; and shall make known to all
kindreds, tongues, and people, that the Lamb of God is the Son of
the Eternal Father, and the Savior of
the world; and that all men must come unto him, or they cannot be
saved.
We
are blessed to have the records of prophets and apostles in both
the Bible and the Book of Mormon. We also have modern day
revelation from Joseph Smith until today. What is one thing you’ve
learned that helps you to stay on God’s path? ...Father
in Heaven, Thank you for helping me learn about my Savior and how
to come back home to thee!

Nephi 14:10 ...Behold
there are save
two churches
only; the one is the church of the Lamb of God, and the other is
the church of the devil;…
Satan
tries to deceive us, but we can know for ourselves if the church
we attend is God’s true church or one of Satan’s attempts at
deceit. ...Father,
I thank thee for helping me find thy church. Please help me to
keep learning your truths.

Nephi 14:14 And
it came to pass that I, Nephi, beheld the power of the Lamb of
God, that it descended upon the saints of the church of the Lamb,
and upon the covenant people of the Lord, who were scattered upon
all the face of the earth; and they
were armed with righteousness and
with the power
of
God in great glory.
We
make covenants with God when we are baptized and in His temples.
How has making covenants helped you feel God’s power and be more
righteous? ...Father,
today you helped me stay righteous and stronger than I could have
been without your help when

Nephi 15:8 And
I (Nephi)
said
unto them (his
brothers):
Have ye
inquired of
the Lord?
God
wants to visit with us and help us… He’s just waiting for us
to come and ask with sincerity. ...Father,
something I’ve been wanting to visit with you about is
__.
