"Behold, verily, verily, I say unto you, ye must watch and pray always lest ye enter into temptation; for Satan desireth to have you, that he may sift you as wheat. Therefore ye must always pray unto the Father in my name."

QUOTE OF THE DAY
David O. McKay
"Prayer is the yearning of the spirit. Sincere praying implies that when we ask for any virtue or blessing we should work for the blessing and cultivate the virtue” (Teachings of Presidents of the Church: David O. McKay, p. 74).
TODAY IN CHURCH HISTORY
July 9
1875 - On his death bed, Martin Harris, one of the Three Witnesses of the Book of Mormon, bears witness that his testimony recorded in the Book of Mormon is true.
ARTICLE: “. . .work out your own salvation with fear and trembling” (Philippians 2:12).
In order to “work out our own salvation,” we must first come to know our Father in Heaven and Jesus Christ who He sent to save us all. Knowledge of divine and spiritual things is absolutely essential for our salvation.
