PROPHECY THROUGH SISTER P. PETERSON
Given in Independence, January 24, 1909
Behold, thus saith the Spirit unto you, oh ye my people that have assembled yourselves before me. Behold, I say unto you, be of good cheer; yea, mine eye is continually over you. Yea, as I have led the children of Israel in days of old, so will I lead my people if they will come near unto me from time to time. Oh, be faithful, and behold, I say unto you, purify yourselves that you may become pure, that you may be redeemed and in mine own due time I will redeem you, saith the Spirit. Behold, the harvest is white. My work must go forth. Yea, this gospel must be preached as a witness before the end can come. Oh, I say unto you, my people, you are sitting as a light before the world. See to it that your example, that your conduct before me is blameless and that you come under no condemnation because of the example that you set before those with whom you are surrounded.
Love one another. Uphold one another in love and righteousness and those that are weak, lift them up. And there is a work for each and every one. Oh, reach out and perform the duties and the work that lies before you on every hand. For the wickedness is abroad and Satan is trying to deceive and to bring into his net those that will be deceived. And if you stand steadfast and firm before me, and if you have faith and confidence in me, I will not leave you alone. I will uphold and sustain you and you shall be my people, and I will be your God, saith the Spirit.
