Promises for Reading the Scriptures

These promises come from apostles and prophets. As you read these promises and hearken unto what you must do and act on it, the promise is not just a guarenteed blessing. If you scincerely do what you must do and keep at it, you will receive the stated promise. The promise won't always come at once and it may take months or even years to see the result, but it will come. (Modify this - I'm not sure if that works but I think we should have something like that on every promises page, just kind of a disclaimer that its not exactly just a go do once and then you reap the promises.)

Promise : I promise you that as you read (the scriptures), your minds will be enlightened and your spirits will be lifted.

What You Must Do : Read the scriptures.

President Gordon B. Hinckley "The Light Within You" - p. 99 - May 1995 Ensign - April Gen. Conf.


Promise : The word will heal a wounded soul.

What You Must Do : They have come up hither to hear the pleasing word of God

President Ezra Taft Benson - The Power of the Word - April 1986 Priesthood Leadership Meeting


Promise : Shall divide asunder all the cunning and the snares and the wiles of the devil.”

What You Must Do : Yea, we see that whosoever will may lay hold upon the word of God, which is quick and powerful,

Promise taken from the verse - Helaman 3 : 29


Promise : his or her doubts will leave; and shining through all of the confusion of the philosophy, the so-called higher criticism, and the negative theology of our day will come the witness of the Holy Spirit that Jesus is in very deed the Son of God, born in the flesh, the Redeemer of the world resurrected from the grave, the Lord who shall come to reign as King of kings.

What You Must Do : If any person will read the word of the Lord, if any person will talk in prayer with him, if any person will live his teachings and serve in his cause

President Gordon B. Hinckley - "He Is Risen, As He Said" - April 1983 Ensign - First Presidency Messages
