Enos.
A mighty prayer to the Lord.
Jacob gave the plates to his son Enos.
Enos wrote on them like Jacob did. One
day, Enos went hunting in the forest.
He remembered what his
father taught about the Lord.
Jacob had taught Enos that
following the Lord would bring him joy.
Enos wanted to feel the
joy his father spoke about.
He decided to pray to the Lord. He
prayed all day and into the night.
The Lord told Enos that his sins
were forgiven. Enos felt very happy.
Enos was blessed because
of his faith in Jesus Christ.
Enos wanted the Nephites to feel
this happiness too. He kept praying.
He asked the Lord for the
Nephites to feel the same joy.
The Lord told Enos that He would be with the Nephites if they
kept His commandments.
When Enos heard this, his faith
in the Lord became even stronger.
Enos prayed again. He asked the Lord
to bless the Lamanites and to keep the writing on the plates safe.
He wanted the Lamanites to be able
to read the plates and believe in the Lord. The Lord promised Enos
that the Lamanites would read the writings one day.
