Lesson 126 Jesus Blesses the Children 3 Nephi 17

“My Time is At Hand” 3 Nephi 17:1-4 “God be with you. I have the same feeling as perhaps the Master had when he bid goodbye to the Nephites. He said he perceived that they were weak, but if they would go to their homes and ponder what he said he would come again and instruct them on other occasions. So likewise, you cannot absorb all that you have heard and that we have talked about, but go to your homes now and remember what you can, and get the spirit of what has been done and said, and when you come again, or we come to you, we will try to help you further with your problems.” President Harold B. Lee The most important gospel instruction should be in the home “The family is the basic unit of the kingdom of God on the earth…the Church can be no healthier than its families.” Spencer W. Kimball

“Reading, studying, and pondering are not the same. We read words and we may get ideas. We study and we may discover patterns and connections in scripture. But when we ponder, we invite revelation by the Spirit. Pondering, to me, is the thinking and the praying I do after reading and studying in the scriptures carefully.” Henry B. Eyring Ponder How do you think pondering and prayer can work together to help us understand what we learn in church or seminary? 3 Nephi 17:3 To Ponder: To meditate To think To feast To treasure It is more than a mental method, it is a spiritual striving to obtain an to understand truth then it is to pray about the things you pondered

Preparing to Receive How should you prepare to understand and learn what is taught during church or seminary? 3 Nephi 17:3 By pondering and praying to the Father, we can receive greater understanding. What difference does it make when we prepare our minds for learning opportunities? Pondering opens the mind to the Spirit

“Man must take time to meditate, to sweep the cobwebs from his minds, so that he might get a more firm grip on the truth and spend less time chasing phantoms and dallying in projects of lesser worth…Take time to mediate. Ponder the meaning of the work in which you are engaged. The Lord has counseled, “Let the solemnities of eternity rest upon your minds’ (D&C 43:34). You cannot do that when your minds are preoccupied with the worries and cares of the world.” --Ezra Taft Benson

“The record does not tell us why he returns to the Father. Presumably he returned to report of his ministry among the Nephites and to receive any instructions that the Father would have him deliver when he came again” JFM and RLM “I Go to the Father” 3 Nephi 17:4 “And now I go unto the Father, because it is expedient that I should go unto the Father for your sakes.” 3 Nephi 18:35

Why did Jesus stay a little longer? Tarry a Little Longer 3 Nephi 17:5-6 He saw tears in their eyes He had compassion on them Bowels= The Semitic Root for “Mercy” refers to that which is deep within “And he will take upon him death, that he may loose the bands of death which bind his people; and he will take upon him their infirmities, that his bowels may be filled with mercy, according to the flesh, that he may know according to the flesh how to succor his people according to their infirmities.” Alma 7:12

Faith To Be Healed 3 Nephi 17:7-9 “And again, to some it is given to have faith to be healed;” D&C 46:19 Jesus shows the Nephites what had been done in Jerusalem to their brethren “…for I see that your faith is sufficient that I should heal you.” “Healing of a physical nature and also healing of the spirit—forgiveness of sin—come to people as gifts of the grace of God as they exercise faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.” JFM and RLM “…thy faith hath made thee whole.” Matthew 9:22

“My Joy is Full” 3 Nephi 17:13-20 There are no words to describe the prayer He offered upon the little children

“Behold Your Little Ones” 3 Nephi 17:21-25 “And when he had said these words, he wept, and the multitude bare record of it, and he took their little children, one by one, and blessed them, and prayed unto the Father for them. And when he had done this he wept again;” Minerva Teichert Walter Rane
