Dear Sister I lay my hands upon thy head and seal upon thy head a fathers blessing because thou hast no father in the Church to bless thee. As thou hast had a willing mind and obeyed from thy heart the fullness of the gospel and came into the New and Everlasting Covenant thou shalt be blessed with long life and every other blessing thy heart desireth in righteousness. Thou shalt have power to bring thy parents and friends into the kingdom and to bring up all thy dead friends in the first resurrection. Thou shalt have the priesthood sealed upon thee in common with thy companion. Thou shalt be able to heal the sick through faith, even thine own family, in the absence of thy companion. Thou shalt have the ministration of angels if thou wilt be faithful and sure with thy whole heart. Thou art a daughter of Abraham thru the loins of Judah. Thou shalt be satisfied with the riches of the Earth and shall partake of all the blessings sealed upon the head of thy companion. When he returneth from his mission he shall bring a great company, amongst them many of thy friends and relatives. Thou shalt earn an inheritance in Zion and shall be mistress of a large house and feed many saints. Thy children shall be numerous and thou shalt rejoice with them in Zion with thy companion when wickedness is swept from the face of the Earth. Thou shalt have every blessing thy heart desireth inasmuch as thou livest for them. Through thy liberality the hearts of man shall be made glad. I seal all these blessings upon thy head, and also seal thee up unto Eternal Life by the authority of the Priesthood in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. |
Brother Ernest, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth I place my hands upon thy head to pronounce and seal a blessing upon thee and I say unto thee be of good faith and seek to obtain wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Also, inform thy mind in regard to the principles of life and salvation, for thou art numbered among the sons of Zion of whom much is expected. Therefore, prepare thyself for the events of the future, for the time is not far distant when thou shalt be called to labor in the ministry, and without doubt thou shall travel much for the Gospel sake and go again to thy native land and gather out from bondage many of the honest in heart who are now in Babylon, and if thou art faithful thou shalt have great joy therein, and thou shalt find friends among strangers, and thine enemies shall not hedge thee round about, but thou shall accomplish a good work and fulfill thy mission upon the Earth. Thou art of the blood of Joseph and shall receive thy Blessings in the Tribe of Ephriam. Thou art also entitled to the blessings of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and of the new and everlasting covenant in as much as thou will be humble and listen to the still small voice of the comforter. Therefore I say unto thee put thy trust in the Lord and the Angel of thy presence shall watch over thee and guard thy footsteps, and thou shall become a mighty man in Israel, and thy name shall be perpetuated and handed down in honorable remembrance and written in the Lamb's Book of Life. These Blessings I seal upon thy head and I seal thou up unto eternal life to come forth in the morning of the first Resurrection forever. Amen. |
