1 Nephi 5:8 - "And she spake, saying: Now I know of a surety that the Lord hath commanded my husband to flee into the wilderness; yea, and I also know of a surety that the Lord hath protected my sons, and delivered them out of the hands of Laban, and given them power whereby they could accomplish the thing which the Lord hath commanded them. And after this manner of language did she speak."

President Barbara B. Smith - "Sariah, the wife of Lehi, had the wrenching experience of leaving their home and their possessions to travel in the wilderness. We are not told of the trials she may have experienced; but going on foot, living in tents, and cooking over an open fire could have been devastating after their comfortable life in Jerusalem. We do read of her anguished waiting when she feared her beloved sons had perished in their return to obtain the plates. (See  1 Ne. 5:2 But in spite of troubles, she did love and serve her family. With the return of her sons, she knew of a certainty that the Lord had commanded her husband to flee into the wilderness, and in their safe return she found the assurance that the Lord was with them. (See  1 Ne. 5:8 Their circumstances did not change; they still slept in tents. But she had joy and comfort in the knowledge that the Lord was guiding them. In that light she could carry on and meet further difficulties as they came."

1 Nephi 4:10 - "And it came to pass that I was constrained by the Spirit that I should kill Laban; but I said in my heart: Never at any time have I shed the blood of man. And I shrunk and would that I might not slay him."

Elder M. Russell Ballard - “Most of us have had the promptings of the Spirit and then argued with the Lord as to whether or not we ought to do what we are prompted to do...We get a prompting and we wrestle with the Lord as to whether or not we are going to respond to the prompting...God grant you the blessing to always respond to the prompting of the Spirit. The promptings are often involved in little things. They are little nudgings that come to you that can have a vast effect on others if you follow them.” M. Russell Ballard, Respond to the Prompting of the Spirit, CES address, January 8, 1988

President Dallin H. Oaks - “One of the things I learned in this most recent reading of the Book of Mormon was how much God loves all of His children in every nation.”

President Dallin H. Oaks - “The Book of Mormon is a great witness that the Lord loves all people everywhere.”

President Dallin H. Oaks - “The Book of Mormon has come forth to remind us of the covenants of the Lord, to the convincing of all ‘that Jesus is the Christ, the Eternal God, manifesting himself unto all nations.’”

1 Nephi 4:7 - "Nevertheless I went forth, and as I came near unto the house of Laban I beheld a man, and he had fallen to the earth before me, for he was drunken with wine."

Truman G. Madsen - “And so must we. We must be confident in our first promptings. Sometimes we rationalize; we wonder if we are feeling a spiritual impression or if it is just our own thoughts. When we begin to second-guess, even third-guess, our feelings—and we all have—we are dismissing the Spirit; we are questioning divine counsel. The Prophet Joseph Smith taught that if you will listen to the first promptings, you will get it right nine times out of ten." 

Elder Ronald A. Rasband - "Now a caution: don't expect fireworks because you responded to the Holy Ghost. Remember, you are about the work of the still, small voice.”

1 Nephi 4:6 - “And I was led by the Spirit, not knowing beforehand the things which I should do.”

Joseph Smith - A few years after his death, Joseph Smith appeared to Brigham Young in a dream and told him: “Tell the people to be humble and faithful, and sure to keep the Spirit of the Lord and it will lead them right. Be careful and not turn away the small still voice; it will teach [you what] to do and where to go.”

Elder John H. Groberg - “Be willing to take reasonable risks. We live in an age of reason, logic, facts, and figures. These can be useful if kept in subjection to faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ. But if they ever take precedence over faith in Him, then they are not useful and can be very harmful. I have found in my life that most of the good decisions I have made may not have been made if they were based solely on logic or reason... Nephi was determined to do what God wanted him to do even with logic to the contrary. The scriptures tell us in 1 Nephi 4:6 that he went forth not knowing beforehand what he should do but knowing he should obey God and get the plates…I suspect had he listened only to reason, Nephi and his brethren would still be waiting outside the walls of Jerusalem. I sometimes wonder if by our listening to reason and logic too much, and not trusting God enough, we may find ourselves waiting outside the walls of His holy city”

1 Nephi 4:6 - “And I was led by the Spirit, not knowing beforehand the things which I should do.”

President Dallin H. Oaks - “In its more familiar forms, revelation or inspiration comes by means of words or thoughts communicated to the mind, by sudden enlightenment, [or] by positive or negative feelings about proposed courses of action” Oaks, Eight Ways God Can Speak to You, New Era, September 2004

‘You must learn to walk to the edge of the light, and then a few steps into the darkness; then the light will appear and show the way before you." Packer quoting President Lee, Ensign, Move Forward in Faith, August 2013

1 Nephi 4:2 - "Therefore let us go up; let us be strong like unto Moses; for he truly spake unto the waters of the Red Sea and they divided hither and thither, and our fathers came through, out of captivity, on dry ground, and the armies of Pharaoh did follow and were drowned in the waters of the Red Sea."

Elder Dale G. Renlund - "By acknowledging that every good thing comes from Jesus Christ, we will communicate our faith more effectively to others. We will have courage when confronted with seemingly impossible tasks and circumstances. We will strengthen our resolve to keep the covenants we have made to follow the Savior. We will be filled with the love of God, want to help those in need without being judgmental, love our children and raise them in righteousness, retain a remission of our sins, and always rejoice. These are the remarkable fruits of remembering God’s goodness and mercy."

1 Nephi 4:1 - "And it came to pass that I spake unto my brethren, saying: Let us go up again unto Jerusalem, and let us be faithful in keeping the commandments of the Lord; for behold he is mightier than all the earth, then why not mightier than Laban and his fifty, yea, or even than his tens of thousands?" 

Elder David A Bednar - “Nephi had to go three times to get the brass plates. Was something wrong with him the first time? I do not think so. Was something wrong with him the second time? I do not think so. I believe the first two episodes were necessary for Nephi to go the third time, submissive and willing to do whatever the Lord instructed him to do in order to get the brass plates. He was not wrong the first two times; He was being tutored on how to do it right the third time.”

1 Nephi 3:31 - "And after the angel had departed, Laman and Lemuel again began to murmur, saying: How is it possible that the Lord will deliver Laban into our hands? Behold, he is a mighty man, and he can command fifty, yea, even he can slay fifty; then why not us?"

Elder H. Ross Workman - "Laman and Lemuel murmured. It began, as always, with questioning: 'How is it possible that the Lord will deliver Laban into our hands?' they said. Next, the excuses: 'Behold, he is a mighty man, and he can command fifty, yea, even he can slay fifty; then why not us?' Finally, they were slothful. Filled with anger, resentment, and excuses, Laman and Lemuel waited by the walls of Jerusalem while the faithful Nephi accomplished the work of the Lord."

Elder Larry S. Kacher - "How high we climb on the ladder of faith is our decision...We can choose to make the choices needed to increase our faith in the Savior. Consider the impact of the choices made when Laman and Lemuel descended the ladder of faith while Nephi climbed higher. Is there a clearer representation than the difference between Nephi’s response of 'I will go and do' versus Laman and Lemuel, having just seen an angel, responding with 'How is it possible that the Lord will deliver?' Unbelief blocks our ability to see miracles, whereas a mindset of faith in the Savior unlocks the powers of heaven. Even when our faith is weak, the Lord’s hand will always be stretched out.
