Hearken to the Truth, and Give Heed unto It Lesson 5

Recap Lesson 4 Understand Nephi’s vision of the future and how the warnings and promises in it apply to us today

Purpose Inspire us to follow Nephi’s example of faith and willing obedience

What’s our attitude sometimes? I don’t want to. I’ll think about it. I’ll try.

What was Nephi’s attitude?

The Lord guides the families

Spencer W. Kimball “The Lord gave to … every person, a conscience which tells him every time he starts to go on the wrong path. “You must realize that you have [a] compass, like the Liahona, in your own system. … Our ship will not get on the wrong course … if we listen to the dictates of our own Liahona, which we call the conscience”

Elder L. Tom Perry “The scriptures tell of an instance in which the Lord provided help but then stepped aside to allow one of His sons to exercise his own initiative. You see, the Lord knew that Nephi could make the tools, and it is seldom the Lord will do something for us that we can do for ourselves”

Video: “I Will Prepare the Way” (1 Nephi 17) The support and direction the Lord gave to Nephi when he was commanded to build a ship serves as a model for a young woman as she faces an overwhelming task of her own. prepare-the-way?lang=eng prepare-the-way?lang=eng prepare-the-way?lang=eng

Video: Building the Ship Chapter 7: Building the Ship The Lord instructs Nephi to build a ship and reveals to Nephi the design and method for making the ship. Laman and Lemuel mock Nephi for attempting to build a ship. (1:48) chapter-7-building-the-ship?lang=eng&country=ca

Nephi’s Ship

Elder Boyd K. Packer “The Holy Ghost communicates with the spirit through the mind more than through the physical senses. This guidance comes as thoughts, as feelings, through impressions and promptings. It is not always easy to describe inspiration. The scriptures teach us that we may ‘feel’ the words of spiritual communication more than hear them, and see with spiritual rather than with mortal eyes”

Conclusion Elder Heber J. Grant: “No obstacles are insurmountable when God commands and we obey”
