Let it be remembered that “the things of God are understood by the Spirit of God,” and that revelation is fruitless unless it be listened to and obeyed. – Gordon B. Hinckley, “Conference Report,” April 1964, Afternoon Meeting, p. 39
Expecting the spectacular, one may not be fully alerted to the constant flow of revealed communication. I say, in the deepest of humility, but also by the power and force of a burning testimony in my soul, that from the prophet of the Restoration to the prophet of our own year, the communication line is […]
As we attain a greater degree of proficiency at [receiving personal revelation], we can receive more power in our individual roles to minister and accomplish the work of salvation and exaltation—to truly “lay aside the things of this world, and seek for the things of a better.”17 We can then more effectively inspire our rising generation […]

Brothers and sisters, I have not seen a pillar of light, but, like you, I have experienced many divine rays. Over the years, I’ve tried to treasure such experiences. I find that as I do, I recognize and remember even more of them. – Alexander Dushku, “Pillars and Rays,” Liahona (CR) May 2024
