Sister beloved of the Lord, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon you a fathers blessing, even all the blessings of the everlasting Priesthood which was sealed upon the children of Joseph in common with thy companion, giving you power to heal the sick in thine house and to drive the destroyer from thy habitation to preserve the lives of thy children. They will grow very healthy, become mighty in Israel and spread forth upon the mountains like Jacob and be saviors on Mount Zion. It is thy privilege to save thy father's house with the help of thy companion and friends and bring them up in the first resurrection back to the days of Noah and on to where they died in the Gospel that there shall not be a broken link in the chain from the days of righteous Abel to the dispensation of the fullness of times. Thou shalt be satisfied with one's portions and have all thy companion's blessings sealed upon him and I seal the same upon thee and upon thy children for ever and ever, Amen. |
Beloved brother, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon you a patriarchal or father's blessing; even all the blessings of the everlasting priesthood that was sealed upon Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob and upon the children of Joseph in the land of Egypt, for this is thy lineage, and thy name shall be had in honorable remembrance in the Church through thy posterity from generation to generation. Thou shalt be blessed in thy basket and in thy store. Thou shalt have an inheritance in the land of Zion, a very great plantation. Thou shalt have all kinds of beast and carriages, shall have servants and handmaidens that will delight to obey thy voice. Thou shalt pass through afflictions and not be troubled. Thou shalt not be beset by the hand of the destroyer. Thou shalt have the ministering of angels which shall teach you great wisdom. Finally, thou shalt have the riches of eternal life. Thy posterity shall be numerous almost as the stars of heaven. You shall live, if you desire it, to see the winding up scene of this generation and bring thy father's house to a knowledge of salvation and be satisfied with life forever. Even so Amen. |
