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. |
Beloved Brother, in the name of Jesus Christ I place my hands upon thy head and seal upon thee a patriarchal or father's blessing according to the order of the Church from everlasting. I seal upon thee all the blessings of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the blessings of the priesthood which was sealed upon the children of Joseph. I seal upon thee and thy posterity, for this is thy lineage, thou shalt be blessed with health in thy family and thy children shall multiply like Ephraim and be mighty in the priesthood, shall be able to seal blessings of the new and everlasting covenant upon the children of Jacob. Thou shalt enjoy peace in thy family. Thou shalt go forth to preach the gospel to many people. The Lamanites shall hear thy voice and they shall begin to believe thy word. Thou shalt gather thousands of the remnants of Jacob to the land of Zion. Thou shalt be able to rebuke the winds and the stormy winds, shall do any miracle that is necessary for the gathering of Israel. No power on Earth shall stay thine hand. Thou shalt see Israel gathered and Zion established in peace on the earth, have part in the first resurrection with all thy father's house, and inherit a kingdom that shall never pass away. Amen. |
