Book of Mormon [ENOS-WORDS OF MORMON] Insights

“He Worketh in Me to Do According to His Will”

April 15 - April 21, 2024

WEEK 16: SUMMARY

=================

Lesson Summary:

This week we cover hundreds of years of Nephite history in a few short, powerful chapters. First we’ll study Enos’ wrestle before the Lord and understand the power of prayer. Next, we’ll watch the small plates change hands multiple times from Enos’ son Jarom through many generations. We’ll also study the exodus of the righteous Nephites from the land of Nephi into the land of Zarahemla. Finally we’ll jump hundreds of years in time to study the words of Mormon and understand the far-reaching miracles of God’s plan for the Book of Mormon.

Questions to Consider:

Enos 1:6-7 & 16-17 | How does an increase in personal testimony allow you to stop asking how things will happen and find rest in God’s timetable?

Enos 1:20 | What does it mean to have a “fixed hatred” and how does that stem from letting our “evil nature” dominate?

Jarom 1:4 | What does it mean to have a stiff neck? What is the opposite state that allows us to be closer to the spirit?

Jarom 1:11 | Does our prophet ask us to do something similar? When have you had to choose to live “as though” a promised blessing has been fulfilled?

Words of Mormon 1:13-14 | How does this strategy apply to us? Which talk from conference echoed this message for you?
