Sister Mary, I lay my hands upon your head in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, to bless and seal you up unto Eternal life, according to the Power of the Priesthood, which is invested in me. Therefore, you are blessed spiritually and even temporally according to the Covenant made with Abraham, for you shall have an inheritance with the remnants of his seed, for you are of that lineage, even a daughter of Abraham, and shall be reckoned in that lineage upon Mount Zion, in the City of the New Jerusalem, and in your spiritual blessings. Your consolation is in the Seal of the promise, but the spaces and interstices will be attended with the tribulation of this life. Nevertheless, these are but light afflictions that await you in all the days of your life, when rightly compared with others, but the Comforter, which is the promise unto you of Eternal life Shall comfort your heart. As also your inheritance, in the lineage of your Fathers, shall be even as a Second Comforter unto you, henceforth. And again your name shall be perpetuated, and handed down from generation to generations, as a blessing, even unto the latest generations, and your days and years shall be given unto you according to your faith, and the desires of your heart. And again your Glory is Celestial to be received in the Morning of the Resurrection. These blessings I seal upon your head. Even so. Amen. |
William, I lay my hands upon your head in the name of Jesus of Nazareth to bless you. Although it is in the days of your youth great shall be your blessings in consequence of the exercise of faith in the morning of your days. Therefore, I say unto you, William, if you will continue faithful as you have begun, you shall be a bright and shining light unto this generation and unto your Father's house which light shall shine in your house through which salvation shall be administered unto your posterity and to future generations. The same will commemorate your name and make it honorable from generation to generation. This blessing is before you and again I say unto you, William, you are of the lineage of Ephraim, and shall be blessed with the Priesthood and a Dispensation of the Gospel, and in due time you shall administer and officiate in your office and calling wherein you are and shall receive light; cleave unto the Lord with all your might and where to lay your head, and finally bring you to Your inheritance, and to your place and station in the end of your days, as also to perpetuate Your name in honor, which will go down in lineage with the blessings of the Priesthood unto the latest generation. And if your faith fail not, your days shall be continued unto the coming of the Son of Man. These Blessings I seal upon your head, even so, Amen. |
