Enlist in the Army of Israel

Have you listened to the Worldwide Devotional by President and Sister Nelson? Wow!  I am so grateful for their boldness and energy in calling the Saints to stand in our covenants and be a part of "the greatest challenge, the greatest cause, and the greatest work on earth." 

We have read about Captain Moroni's Title of Liberty and the Armies of Helaman our whole lives.  Their stories are inspiring, but they are just stories from the past.  They don't require anything of us. That time has past.  This historic call from our Prophet to enlist in the Army of Israel and be a part of GATHERING people from the whole earth to the gospel of Jesus Christ ranks right up there in Battle Cries that Yield Miracles.

The Prophet challenged the youth to...


  1. Hold a seven-day fast from social media.
  2. Make a weekly sacrifice of time to the Lord for three weeks.
  3. Keep on the covenant path. If you are off, repent and get back on the path.
  4. Pray daily that all of God’s children might receive the blessings of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
  5. Stand out. Be different. Be a light. Give to a friend one copy of the booklet For the Strength of Youth.

Imagine those things written on a banner posted at the top of every LDS home and every meetinghouse.  Let's come running to that standard just like the people did for Captain Moroni.  Let's make a plan to implement these things in our home and in our ward families.  Miracles will come!

This is the call from a true Prophet of God.  This is our time!
