Throughout history, God has chosen prophets (such as Noah, Abraham, and Moses) to teach the truth and direct His Church. It is no different today. We all need the Lord's guidance. Because Heavenly Father loves all of His children,
He continues to send living prophets and apostles of Jesus Christ.
Now we can take the time to study and review the messages that were shared
“The greatest blessings of General Conference come to us after the conference is over. Remember the pattern recorded frequently in scripture: we gather to hear the words of the Lord, and we return to our homes to live them.”
Keep in mind that
“There are specific messages in each General Conference given as a blessing for our personal life situations.
To better receive, remember, and apply the words spoken by the Lord’s servants,”
1 - “Ponder questions you need answered.
Yearn for guidance regarding challenges you are facing.”
2 - “Don’t discount a message because it sounds familiar.
Prophets have always taught by repetition.”
3 - use the sermons
as “a compass that points the way during the coming months.”
~ President Utchdorf
