The Lord’s House Is Filled: Temple Blessings (Doctrine and Covenants 109-110) | Apostle D. Todd Harrison
In this inspiring lesson, Apostle D. Todd Harrison explores the sacred dedicatory prayer of the Kirtland Temple recorded in Doctrine and Covenants 109 and the divine manifestations that followed in section 110. Though the Kirtland Temple differs from the temples we know today—lacking altars and baptismal fonts—the blessings Joseph Smith prayed for then remain available in the Lord’s house now.
Apostle D. Todd Harrison invites you to reflect on key verses (5, 12–13, 9, 15–19, 21–23, 24–33, 35–39, 42–46, 78–79) that reveal how the Lord promises to manifest Himself, pour out His Spirit, and empower His children within His holy places. Drawing from Doctrine and Covenants 110, he highlights the appearances of Jesus Christ and the ancient prophets Moses, Elias, and Elijah, who restored essential priesthood keys.
This lesson encourages pondering how these promises and blessings have touched your life, especially if you have felt the Spirit or participated in temple ordinances.
"I testify that the Lord appeared in His holy house, and that He continues to appear to the faithful. The blessings of Doctrine and Covenants 109–110 are still available today in the Lord’s temples. His house is filled with power, covenant, and glory. I testify that Jesus Christ is Alive Today!"
In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
