And it came to pass that after they were written he expounded them. And these are the words which he did tell unto them, saying: Thus said the Father unto Malachi—Behold, I will ^asend my ^bmessenger, and he shall prepare the way before me, and the Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly ^ccome to his temple, even the ^dmessenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in; behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of Hosts.
113. 3 Ne. 27: 14, 20
       14 And my Father sent me that I might be ^alifted up upon the ^bcross; and after that I had been lifted up upon the ^ccross, that I might ^ddraw all men unto me, that as I have been lifted up by men even so should men be lifted up by the Father, to stand before me, to be ^ejudged of their works, whether they be good or whether they be evil—
           •  •  •
       20 Now this is the commandment: ^aRepent, all ye ends of the earth, and come unto me and be ^bbaptized in my name, that ye may be ^csanctified by the reception of the Holy Ghost, that ye may stand ^dspotless before me at the last day.
114. Morm. 2: 9
       9 And now, the Lamanites had a king, and his name was ^aAaron; and he came against us with an army of forty and four thousand. And behold, I withstood him with forty and two thousand.

115. Morm. 8: 23
       23 Search the prophecies of ^aIsaiah. Behold, I cannot write them.

116. Ether 3: 9
       9 And the Lord said unto him: Because of thy faith thou hast seen that I shall take upon me ^aflesh and blood; and never has man come before me with ^bsuch exceeding faith as thou hast; for were it not so ye could not have seen my finger. Sawest thou more than this?
117. Ether 12: 27
       27 And if men come unto me I will show unto them their ^aweakness.

118. D&C 5: 21, 24
       21 And now I command you, my servant Joseph, to ^arepent and ^bwalk more uprightly before me, and to yield to the ^cpersuasions of men no more;
           •  •  •
       24 Behold, I say unto him, he exalts himself and does not ^ahumble himself sufficiently before me; but if he will ^bbow down before me, and humble himself in mighty ^cprayer and faith, in the ^dsincerity of his heart, then will I grant unto him a ^eview of the things which he desires to see.
119. D&C 18: 31
       31 And now I speak unto you, the ^aTwelve—Behold, my grace is sufficient for you; you must walk uprightly before me and sin not.
120. D&C 19: 41

123. D&C 29: 2, 47
       2 Who will ^agather his people even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, even as many as will hearken to my voice and ^bhumble themselves before me, and call upon me in mighty prayer.
           •  •  •
       47 Wherefore, they cannot ^asin, for power is not given unto Satan to ^btempt little children, until they ^cbegin to become ^daccountable before me;
124. D&C 35: 4
       4 Thou art blessed, for thou shalt do great things. Behold thou wast sent forth, even as ^aJohn, to prepare the way before me, and before ^bElijah which should come, and thou knewest it not.
125. D&C 38: 11, 14, 16, 24
       11 For all ^aflesh is corrupted before me; and the powers of ^bdarkness prevail upon the earth, among the children of men, in the presence of all the hosts of heaven—
           •  •  •
       14 But now I tell it unto you, and ye are blessed, not because of your iniquity, neither your hearts of unbelief; for verily some of you are ^aguilty before me, but I will be merciful unto your ^bweakness.
           •  •  •
       16 And for your salvation I give unto you a commandment, for I have heard your ^aprayers, and the ^bpoor have complained before me, and the ^crich have I made, and all flesh is mine, and I am no ^drespecter of persons.
           •  •  •
       24 And let every man ^aesteem his brother as himself, and practise ^bvirtue and holiness before me.
126. D&C 39: 8

127. D&C 40: 1
       1 Behold, verily I say unto you, that the heart of my servant ^aJames Covill was right before me, for he covenanted with me that he would obey my word.

       3 And by the prayer of your faith ye shall receive my ^alaw, that ye may know how to govern my ^bchurch and have all things right before me.
           •  •  •
       11 And this because his heart is pure before me, for he is like unto ^aNathanael of old, in whom there is no ^bguile.
       12 These words are given unto you, and they are pure before me; wherefore, beware how you hold them, for they are to be answered upon your ^asouls in the day of judgment. Even so. Amen.
129. D&C 42: 41
       41 And let all things be done in ^acleanliness before me.
130. D&C 43: 9, 11-12, 14, 33
       9 And thus ye shall become instructed in the law of my church, and be ^asanctified by that which ye have received, and ye shall bind yourselves to act in all holiness before me—
           •  •  •
       11 ^aPurge ye out the ^biniquity which is among you; sanctify yourselves before me;
       12 And if ye desire the glories of the kingdom, ^aappoint ye my servant Joseph Smith, Jun., and uphold him before me by the prayer of faith.
           •  •  •
       14 And if ye do it not he shall remain unto them that have received him, that I may reserve unto myself a ^apure ^bpeople before me.
           •  •  •
       33 And the wicked shall go away into unquenchable ^afire, and their end no man knoweth on earth, nor ever shall know, until they come before me in ^bjudgment.
131. D&C 45: 9
       9 And even so I have sent mine ^aeverlasting ^bcovenant into the world, to be a ^clight to the world, and to be a ^dstandard for my people, and for the ^eGentiles to seek to it, and to be a ^fmessenger before my face to prepare the way before me.
132. D&C 46: 7, 33
       7 But ye are commanded in all things to ^aask of God, who giveth liberally; and that which the Spirit testifies unto you even so I would that ye should do in all ^bholiness of heart, walking uprightly before me, ^cconsidering the end of your salvation, doing all things with prayer and ^dthanksgiving, that ye may not be ^eseduced by evil ^fspirits, or doctrines of devils, or the ^gcommandments of men; for some are of men, and others of devils.
           •  •  •
       33 And ye must practise ^avirtue and holiness before me continually. Even so. Amen.
133. D&C 49: 2
       2 Behold, I say unto you, that they desire to know the truth in part, but not all, for they are not ^aright before me and must needs repent.
134. D&C 50: 9
       9 Wherefore, let every man beware lest he do that which is not in truth and righteousness before me.
135. D&C 54: 3
       3 And if your brethren desire to escape their enemies, let them repent of all their sins, and become truly ^ahumble before me and contrite.
136. D&C 55: 3-4
       3 And on whomsoever you shall ^alay your hands, if they are contrite before me, you shall have power to give the Holy Spirit.
       4 And again, you shall be ordained to assist my servant Oliver Cowdery to do the work of printing, and of selecting and writing ^abooks for ^bschools in this church, that little ^cchildren also may receive ^dinstruction before me as is pleasing unto me.
137. D&C 56: 7
       7 Wherefore, let my servant Newel Knight remain with them; and as many as will go may go, that are contrite before me, and be led by him to the land which I have appointed.
138. D&C 57: 13
       13 And let my servant ^aOliver Cowdery assist him, even as I have commanded, in whatsoever place I shall appoint unto him, to copy, and to correct, and select, that all things may be right before me, as it shall be proved by the Spirit through him.
139. D&C 58: 41
       41 And also he hath need to repent, for I, the Lord, am not well pleased with him, for he seeketh to excel, and he is not sufficiently meek before me.
140. D&C 59: 4
       4 And they shall also be crowned with blessings from above, yea, and with ^acommandments not a few, and with ^brevelations in their time—they that are ^cfaithful and ^ddiligent before me.
141. D&C 61: 34, 37
       34 And inasmuch as they do this they shall ^arid their garments, and they shall be spotless before me.
           •  •  •
       37 And inasmuch as you have humbled yourselves before me, the blessings of the ^akingdom are yours.
142. D&C 64: 7
       7 Nevertheless, he has sinned; but verily I say unto you, I, the Lord, ^aforgive sins unto those who ^bconfess their sins before me and ask forgiveness, who have not ^csinned unto ^ddeath.
143. D&C 67: 1, 10
       1 Behold and hearken, O ye ^aelders of my church, who have assembled yourselves together, whose ^bprayers I have heard, and whose ^chearts I know, and whose desires have come up before me.
           •  •  •
       10 And again, verily I say unto you that it is your privilege, and a ^apromise I give unto you that have been ordained unto this ministry, that inasmuch as you ^bstrip yourselves from ^cjealousies and ^dfears, and ^ehumble yourselves before me, for ye are not sufficiently humble, the ^fveil shall be rent and you shall ^gsee me and know that I am—not with the carnal neither natural mind, but with the spiritual.
144. D&C 78: 2
       2 And listen to the ^acounsel of him who has ^bordained you from on high, who shall speak in your ears the words of ^cwisdom, that salvation may be unto you in that thing which you have presented before me, saith the Lord God.
145. D&C 82: 9
       9 Or, in other words, I give unto you directions how you may ^aact before me, that it may ^bturn to you for your salvation.
146. D&C 88: 74, 135
       74 And I give unto you, who are the first ^alaborers in this last kingdom, a commandment that you assemble yourselves together, and organize yourselves, and prepare yourselves, and ^bsanctify yourselves; yea, purify your hearts, and ^ccleanse your hands and your feet before me, that I may make you ^dclean;
           •  •  •
       135 And he that cometh in and is faithful before me, and is a brother, or if they be brethren, they shall salute the president or teacher with uplifted hands to heaven, with this same prayer and covenant, or by saying Amen, in token of the same.
147. D&C 90: 36
       36 But verily I say unto you, that I, the Lord, will contend with ^aZion, and plead with her strong ones, and ^bchasten her until she overcomes and is ^cclean before me.
148. D&C 98: 5, 17, 28, 38
       5 And that ^alaw of the land which is ^bconstitutional, supporting that principle of freedom in maintaining rights and privileges, belongs to all mankind, and is justifiable before me.
           •  •  •
       17 And again, the hearts of the ^aJews unto the prophets, and the prophets unto the Jews; lest I come and smite the whole earth with a curse, and all flesh be consumed before me.
           •  •  •
       28 And now, verily I say unto you, if that enemy shall escape my vengeance, that he be not brought into judgment before me, then ye shall see to it that ye ^awarn him in my name, that he come no more upon you, neither upon your family, even your children’s children unto the third and fourth generation.
           •  •  •
       38 Behold, this is an ^aensample unto all people, saith the Lord your God, for justification before me.
149. D&C 103: 24
       24 And inasmuch as mine enemies come against you to drive you from my goodly ^aland, which I have consecrated to be the land of Zion, even from your own lands after these testimonies, which ye have brought before me against them, ye shall curse them;
150. D&C 104: 23, 79
       23 And I will multiply blessings upon him, inasmuch as he will be humble before me.
           •  •  •
       79 And it is my will that you shall ^ahumble yourselves before me, and obtain this blessing by your ^bdiligence and humility and the prayer of faith.
      
151. D&C 105: 12, 23, 31
       12 For behold, I have prepared a great endowment and blessing to be ^apoured out upon them, inasmuch as they are faithful and continue in humility before me.
           •  •  •
       23 And let all my people who dwell in the regions round about be very faithful, and prayerful, and humble before me, and reveal not the things which I have revealed unto them, until it is wisdom in me that they should be revealed.
           •  •  •
       31 But first let my army become very great, and let it be ^asanctified before me, that it may become fair as the sun, and clear as the ^bmoon, and that her banners may be terrible unto all nations;
152. D&C 106: 7
       7 Therefore, blessed is my servant Warren, for I will have mercy on him; and, notwithstanding the ^avanity of his heart, I will lift him up inasmuch as he will humble himself before me.
153. D&C 110: 5
       5 Behold, your sins are ^aforgiven you; you are clean before me; therefore, lift up your heads and ^brejoice.
154. D&C 112: 1, 12, 22, 28
       1 Verily thus saith the Lord unto you my servant Thomas: I have heard thy prayers; and thine ^aalms have come up as a ^bmemorial before me, in behalf of those, thy brethren, who were chosen to bear testimony of my name and to ^csend it abroad among all nations, kindreds, tongues, and people, and ordained through the instrumentality of my servants,
           •  •  •
       12 And pray for thy brethren of the Twelve. ^aAdmonish them sharply for my name’s sake, and let them be admonished for all their sins, and be ye faithful before me unto my ^bname.
           •  •  •
       22 Inasmuch as they shall humble themselves before me, and abide in my word, and ^ahearken to the voice of my Spirit.
           •  •  •
       28 But ^apurify your hearts before me; and then ^bgo ye into all the world, and preach my gospel unto every creature who has not received it;
155. D&C 117: 4, 11
       4 Let them repent of all their sins, and of all their covetous desires, before me, saith the Lord; for what is ^aproperty unto me? saith the Lord.
           •  •  •
       11 Let my servant Newel K. Whitney be ashamed of the ^aNicolaitane band and of all their ^bsecret abominations, and of all his littleness of soul before me, saith the Lord, and come up to the land of Adam-ondi-Ahman, and be a ^cbishop unto my people, saith the Lord, not in name but in deed, saith the Lord.
156. D&C 121: 16
       16 ^aCursed are all those that shall lift up the ^bheel against mine ^canointed, saith the Lord, and cry they have ^dsinned when they have not sinned before me, saith the Lord, but have done that which was meet in mine eyes, and which I commanded them.
157. D&C 124: 2, 15, 48, 97, 103
       2 Your prayers are acceptable before me; and in answer to them I say unto you, that you are now called immediately to make a solemn ^aproclamation of my gospel, and of this ^bstake which I have planted to be a ^ccornerstone of Zion, which shall be polished with the refinement which is after the similitude of a palace.
           •  •  •
       15 And again, verily I say unto you, blessed is my servant Hyrum Smith; for I, the Lord, love him because of the ^aintegrity of his heart, and because he loveth that which is right before me, saith the Lord.
           •  •  •
       48 For ^ainstead of blessings, ye, by your own works, bring cursings, wrath, indignation, and judgments upon your own heads, by your follies, and by all your abominations, which you practise before me, saith the Lord.
           •  •  •
       97 Let my servant William Law also receive the keys by which he may ask and receive blessings; let him be ^ahumble before me, and be without ^bguile, and he shall receive of my Spirit, even the ^cComforter, which shall manifest unto him the truth of all things, and shall give him, in the very hour, what he shall say.
           •  •  •
       103 And again, verily I say unto you, if my servant Sidney will serve me and be ^acounselor unto my servant Joseph, let him arise and come up and stand in the office of his calling, and humble himself before me.
158. D&C 132: 52
       52 And let mine handmaid, Emma Smith, ^areceive all those that have been given unto my servant Joseph, and who are virtuous and pure before me; and those who are not pure, and have said they were pure, shall be destroyed, saith the Lord God.
159. Moses 4: 1
       1 And I, the ^aLord God, spake unto Moses, saying: That ^bSatan, whom thou hast commanded in the name of mine Only Begotten, is the same which was from the ^cbeginning, and he came before me, saying—Behold, here am I, send me, I will be thy son, and I will ^dredeem all mankind, that one soul shall not be lost, and surely ^eI will do it; wherefore ^fgive me thine honor.
160. Moses 8: 30
