Prophets Speak Today

Just like in times of Old, God's Prophets are on the earth to speak to the people and teach us about our Heavenly Father's will and His plan for His children.

In the Old Testament of the Holy Bible we read about Noah, a prophet that was called to declare repentance to the whole earth.  We read  in Genesis Ch. 6 that Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

" 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

9 ¶These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.

11 The earth also was corrupt before God, and the earth was filled with violence.

12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.

13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

14 ¶Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch...

22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he." - Genesis 6:8-14 & 22

Noah was called to be a Prophet. As a part of his command to build an ark and bring the animals onto it, he was also commanded to preach repentance unto the people.

" 16 And it came to pass that Noah prophesied, and taught the things of God, even as it was in the beginning.

17 And the Lord said unto Noah: My Spirit shall not always strive with man, for he shall know that all flesh shall die; yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years; and if men do not repent, I will send in the floods upon them...

19 And the Lord ordained Noah after his own order, and commanded him that he should go forth and declare his Gospel unto the children of men, even as it was given unto Enoch.

20 And it came to pass that Noah called upon the children of men that they should repent; but they hearkened not unto his words;" Moses 6:16-20

God told Noah to prophesy and teach the things of God, even as it was in the beginning. Noah taught the people the plan of God. The people in Noah's day did not listen to the Prophet that the Lord had given them. They chose instead to remain in wickedness. Their choices brought them to the unfortunate end of their existence when the floods came.

Today we are blessed to have living Prophets and Apostles on the Earth again. Our Father in Heaven loves us just as much as He has always loved His children. He shows us His love today by giving us Prophets once again. I know that we are blessed to have men living on the Earth today who are called to teach us all His Gospel. Just as in days of Old the teach us the things of God, even as it was in the beginning. You can know this for yourself as well. Below is a video of President Thomas S. Monson, Prophet and President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Listen to the words that he shares. Pay attention to how your heart feels as he speaks. When it's finished don't take my word that he is truly a Prophet, kneel and ask God. Your Father will tell you!
