"The truly righteous are prosperous, in the sense that they have confidence, which triggers faith into activity and creates beneficial circumstances from less favorable ones. They do not wait for the Lord to give or withhold rewards, but instead call on Him for guidance about what will be most beneficial for them, both temporally and spiritually. Such guidance may lead to changing occupations, moving to another district, acquiring training or new skills, or accepting things as they are but working within one's limitations and following the Spirit's direction in other ways."

I the Lord am bound when ye do what I say. "Moroni extolled the great faith of the brother of Jared, and he recorded that because of his faith "the Lord could not withhold anything from his sight; wherefore he showed him all things" (Ether 12:19-21)
"Moroni described how the secret combination would take over a country and fight the work on God, persecute the righteous and murder those who resisted. Moroni therefore, proceeded to describe the workings of the ancient secret combinations so that modern men could recognize this great political conspiracy in the last days. The Lord has declared that before the 2nd coming of Christ it will be necessary to 'destroy the secret works of darkness in order to preserve the land of Zion, the Americas."
