3 But this is not all; they had given themselves to much prayer, and fasting; therefore they had the spirit of prophecy, and the spirit of revelation, and when they taught, they taught with power and authority of God.
This scripture is refering to the sons of Mosiah. How they prepared themselves before they went there separate ways to preach to the Lamanites. They studied the scriptures and then prayed and fasted. By doing this they were able to call upon God and were able to be great missionaries. Fasting and Praying made the sons of Mosiah stronger and were able to make a great impact on the Lamanites.
As the end of the school year approaches many of you have finals you are studying for. I challenge you to not only study but let Fasting and Prayer be part of your preparation to do well on your tests. We can also make ourselves stronger spiritually by making prayer and fasting a part of our lives.
Love, Sister Madsen
