Keeping with the Prophet's request of noting the promises of Israel in the scriptures, I noticed this morning the Lord's promise -
"...I, the Lord, will make known unto you what I will that ye shall do from this time until the next conference, which shall be held in Missouri, upon the land which I will consecrate unto my people, which are a remnant of Jacob, and those who are heirs according to the covenant." (Doctrine and Covenants 52:2)
For -
"...even as I have said, if ye are faithful ye shall assemble yourselves together to rejoice upon the land of Missouri, which is the land of your inheritance, which is now the land of your enemies.
43 But, behold, I, the Lord, will hasten the city in its time, and will crown the faithful with joy and with rejoicing." (Doctrine and Covenants 52:42–43)
Obviously, "I, the Lord, will hasten the city in its time" is from a different perspective than our own.
