Can you imagine the damage the prophets son could do pulling people away from God’s teachings! How heartbreaking for Alma and yet his prayers, his faith, his goodness bring the miracle of the angel turning the heart of his son! Love the truths taught in this story! God wants us all! Even a wicked sinner like the prophets son Alma the younger

Alma receives revelation that we use as our church court system today! The most important thing we can teach our children is who Christ is and that He loves them! But if they will not believe and repent then they will be cut off. Which is a kindness from god so they aren’t accountable

The rising generation will not believe in Christ. What does Alma do? Love his prayer in humility to the Lord and the answer with the knowledge that the Lord is so pleased with Alma!

Alma, limhi, and mosiah’s people are unified as covenant children of god! We can learn so much from each other as we share our own witness of how we have seen the hand of God in our lives and truly strive to become one - mourning with those that mourn and glorying in others triumphs!

Compare and contrast Limhi and his people escaping their bondage to the lamanites and Alma and his 450 who are now covenant followers of Christ and their escape from Amulon and the Lamanites and their bondage! God will try and test and prove His people. He will make of us far greater people than we can ever make ourselves!

What trials are happening in your life that God may be waiting until you cry to Him to deliver you? How is He easing your burdens, prospering you, protecting you? Are we waiting upon the Lord and trusting in His timing, His plan, His deliverance?

The lamanites come to battle looking for their missing 24 daughters! I love king limhi listens to Gideon! I love that they have such faith they meet the lamanites without weapons trusting their king will pacify his people

Isn’t it interesting how willing and grateful they were to pay 50% tax in exchange for their lives! God is so good because this time in bondage is turning them back to God! What a gift.

Become one in Christ. The power of repentance to change lives!

What a perfect Easter lesson! Abinadi’s martyrdom so mirrored the Saviors! Sealing his testimony with his death. How blessed we are to have the Savior as our redeemer and advocate with the Father! To be on His team! To be His
