Week 4




Day 22

GET BACK ON SCHEDULE

Use your reading chart to find the chapters you still need to read to be caught up through: Jacob 4 or If you’re up to date with your reading, take time to study:

2 Nephi 31-33

What is the doctrine of Christ? What are some things the Holy Ghost can do for us? As Nephi finishes his record what are the things it seems like he most wants us to know?





Day 23

Read: Jacob 5

Mark: Jacob 5:61-62

“Give me a young man who has kept himself morally clean and has faithfully attended his Church meetings. Give me a young man who has magnified his priesthood and has earned the Duty to God Award and is an Eagle Scout. Give me a young man who is a seminary graduate and has a burning testimony of the Book of Mormon. Give me such a young man, and I will give you a young man who can perform miracles for the Lord in the mission field and throughout his life.”

~ President Ezra Taft Benson

How can you prepare now to labor diligently in the Lord’s vineyard?





Day 24

Read: Jacob 6 - Enos

Mark: Enos 1:4

“How many of you, with or without serious transgressions, have ever prayed all day and into the night? Have you ever wept and prayed for many hours? How many of you have prayed for five hours? for one? for thirty minutes? for ten?”

~ President Spencer W. Kimball

How often do you cry unto the Lord in mighty prayer? How can you make prayer more meaningful?





Day 25

Read: Jarom – Words of Mormon

Mark: Jarom 1:5

“We have become a nation of pleasure seeking sabbath breakers… What fits the purpose of the Sabbath? Activities that contribute to greater spirituality…I don’t believe that it is possible to keep our spirituality on a high plane by spending our Sabbaths on the beach, on the golf course…or in our own homes…looking at television.”

~ President Ezra Taft Benson

How can you more fully keep the Sabbath day holy?





Day 26

Read: Mosiah 1-2

Mark: Mosiah 2:17

“Our focus should be on righteousness, not recognition; on service, not status. The faithful visiting teacher, who quietly goes about her work month after month, is just as important to

the work of the Lord as those who occupy what some see as more prominent positions in the Church. Visibility does not equate to value…When we understand why we serve we will not

worry about where we serve.”

~ President Howard W. Hunter

How often do you serve?





Day 27

Read: Mosiah 3-4

Mark: Mosiah 4:30

“Work at keeping your thoughts clean by thinking of something good. The mind can think of only one thing at a time. Use that fact to crowd out ugly thoughts. Above all, don’t feed thoughts

by reading or watching things that are wrong. If you don’t control your thoughts, Satan will keep tempting you until you

eventually act them out.”

~ Elder Richard G. Scott

What helps you most to control your thoughts?





Day 28

Read: Mosiah 5-8

Mark: Mosiah 5:2, 7

“No one can be born again without baptism, but the immersion of water and the laying on of hands to confer the Holy Ghost do not of themselves guarantee that a person has been or will be

born again. The new birth takes place only for those who actually enjoy the Gift or companionship of the Holy Ghost, only for those who are fully converted, who have given themselves without restraint to the Lord.”

~ Elder Bruce R. McConkie

How can you more fully give yourself to the Lord to experience the mighty change of heart?
