Here’s your daily dose of what matters most!
True priesthood power cannot be forced or claimed—it flows only through hearts aligned with heaven. When our actions reflect righteousness and humility, we open ourselves to the divine strength that God freely offers His faithful servants.
Scripture
“That the rights of the priesthood are inseparably connected with the powers of heaven, and that the powers of heaven cannot be controlled nor handled only upon the principles of righteousness.”—Doctrine and Covenants 121:36
Quote
“In a coming day, only those men who have taken their priesthood seriously, by diligently seeking to be taught by the Lord Himself, will be able to bless, guide, protect, strengthen, and heal others. Only a man who has paid the price for priesthood power will be able to bring miracles to those he loves and keep his marriage and family safe, now and throughout eternity.”—Russell M. Nelson, “The Price of Priesthood Power”
