The Spirit of Revelation
Elder David A. Bednar
April 2011 General Conference
Revelation is communication from God to His children on the earth.
The spirit of revelation is available to every person …
Sincere desire and worthiness invite the spirit of revelation into our lives.
Doctrine and Covenants 8:2-5
Revelations are conveyed in a variety of ways, including, for example, dreams, visions, conversations with heavenly messengers, and inspiration.
2 Nephi 28:30
We as members of the Church tend to emphasize marvelous and dramatic spiritual manifestations so much that we may fail to appreciate and may even overlook the customary pattern by which the Holy Ghost accomplishes His work.
“It is not by marvelous manifestations unto us that we shall be established in the truth, but it is by humility and faithful obedience to the commandments and laws of God” - Joseph F. Smith
*These are my overheads. I didn't have room to put all of the quotes and Scriptures on the overheads and I'm too lazy to go find it and put it on my blog. So this will have to do.
