Holy Ghost

1. "A sacred, divine Spirit filled my heart as he spoke. I could feel that this was the 

    Savior’s Church. And I felt that the calling he had extended was inspired by the Holy Ghost…I still 
    treasure these feelings of trust and love.”  
    (Dieter F. Uchtdorf, The Why of Priesthood Service, April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

2. “Everyone loses his or her way at some point, to some degree. It is through the 
    promptings of the Holy Ghost that we can be brought safely back onto the right path, and it is the 
    atoning sacrifice of the Savior that can return us home.” 
    (M. Russell Ballard, That the Lost May Be Found, April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

3. “When people make family and religious commitments to gospel principles, they 
    begin to do better spiritually and often grow temporally as well…Societies at large are strengthened 
    as families grow stronger.”  
    (M. Russell Ballard, That the Lost May Be Found, April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

4. “The Holy Ghost communicates important information that we need to 
    guide us in our mortal journey. When it is crisp and clear and essential, it warrants the title of 
    revelation. When is it a series of promptings we often have to guide us step by step to a worthy 
    objective, for the purpose of this message, it is inspiration.” 
    (Richard G. Scott, How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life, April 2012, 
    http://www.lds.org/)

5. “First, yielding to emotions usch as anger or hurt or defensiveness will drive away 
    the Holy Ghost. Those emotions must be eliminated, or our chance for receiving revelation is slight.”
    (Richard G. Scott, How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life, April 2012, 
    http://www.lds.org/)

6. “Another principle is to be cautious with humor. Loud, inappropriate laughter will 
    offend the Spirit. A good sense of humor helps revelation, loud laughter does not.”
    (Richard G. Scott, How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life, April 2012, 
    http://www.lds.org/)

7. “Spiritual communication can be enhanced by good health practices. 
    Exercise, reasonable amounts of sleep, and good eating habits increase our capacity to receive and 
    understand revelation.”  
    (Richard G. Scott, How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life, April 2012, 
    http://www.lds.org/)

8. “It is important that our daily activities do not distract us from listening to the 
    Spirit.”
    (Richard G. Scott, How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life, April 2012, 
    http://www.lds.org/)

9. “No Father would send His children off to a distant, dangerous land for a lifetime of testing 
    where Lucifer was known to roam free without first providing them with a personal power of 
    protection. He would also supply them with means to communicate with Him from father to child and  
    from child to Father. Every child of our Father send to earth is provided with the Spirit of Christ, or    
    the Light of Christ.  We are, none of us, left here alone without hope of guidance and redemption.”
    (Boyd K. Packer, Prayer and Promptings, October 2009, http://www.lds.org/)

10. “The Holy Ghost communicates with our spirits through the mind more than through the 
      physical senses. The guidance comes as thoughts, as feelings through promptings and impressions.”
      (Boyd K. Packer, Prayer and Promptings, October 2009, http://www.lds.org/)

11. “The Lord has many ways of pouring knowledge into our minds to prompt us, to guide us, 
      to teach us, to correct us, to warn us. The Lord said, “I will tell you in your mind and in your heart, 
      by the Holy Ghost, which shall come upon you and which shall dwell in your heart” (D&C 8:2). 
      You can know things you need to know. Pray that you will learn to receive that inspiration and 
      remain worthy to receive it. Keep that channel- your mind- clean and free from the clutter of the 
      world.”  (Boyd K. Packer, Prayer and Promptings, October 2009, http://www.lds.org/)

12. Guided by the Holy Spirit, we will learn from our mistakes. If we stumble, we will rise. If we 
      falter, we will go on. We will never waver; we will never give up.
     (Dieter F. Uchtorf, The Why of Priesthood Service, April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

13. If we will pray and ask Heavenly Father who we can help and promise to act on the promptings 
      He gives us letting us know how we can help, He will answer our prayers and we will become 
      instruments in His hands to do His work. 
     (Dieter F. Uchtorf, The Why of Priesthood Service, April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

14. As you act on [a] prompting and do it with love, watch as our Heavenly Father uses your 
      willingness to act to bring about a miracle in your life and in the life of the person you care 
      about. (David F. Evans, Was It Worth It? April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

15. The Light of Christ together with the companionship of the Holy Ghost must help us determine 
       if our manner of living is placing us in the Lord’s territory or not. If our attitudes are good, 
      they are inspired of God, for every good thing comes from God. However, if our attitudes are 
      bad, we are being influenced by the enemy because he persuades men to do evil. 
      (Elder Ulisses Soares, Abide in the Lord's Territory, April 2012, http://www.lds.org/)

16. The Holy Ghost communicates important information that we need to guide us in our mortal 
       journey. When it is crisp and clear and essential, it warrants the title of revelation. When it is a 
       series of promptings we often have to guide us step by step to a worthy objective, … it is 
       inspiration. 
      (Richard G. Scott, How to Obtain Revelation and Inspiration for Your Personal Life, April 2012, 
      http://www.lds.org/)

17. When you were confirmed a member of the Church, you received the right to the 

      companionship of the Holy Ghost. He can help you make good choices. When challenged or 

      tempted, you do not need to feel alone. Remember that prayer is the passport to spiritual 

      power. (Thomas S. Monson, “Preparation Brings Blessings,”  Ensign, May 2010)
