Trusting in the
Arm of Flesh
| 2
Nephi 4:34: |
|
|
"O Lord, I have trusted in thee, and I will trust
in thee forever. I will not put my trust in the arm of flesh; for I
know that cursed is he that putteth his trust in the arm of flesh.
Yea, cursed is he that putteth his trust in man or maketh flesh his
arm." |
| |
|
|
|
| 2 Nephi 28:31: |
|
|
"Cursed is he that putteth his trust in man, or
maketh flesh his arm, or shall hearken unto the precepts of men,
save their precepts shall be given by the power of the Holy Ghost." |

|
| Mosiah 3:19: |
|
|
"For the natural man is an enemy to God, and has
been from the fall of Adam, and will be, forever and ever, unless he
yields to the enticings of the Holy Spirit, and putteth off the
natural man and becometh a saint through the atonement of Christ the
Lord, and becometh as a child, submissive, meek, humble, patient,
full of love, willing to submit to all things which the Lord seeth
fit to inflict upon him, even as a child doth submit to his father." |

| Alma 26: 11-12: |
|
|
"...I do not boast in my own strength, nor in my
own wisdom; but behold, my joy is full, yea, my heart is brim with
joy, and I will rejoice in my God. Yea, I know that I am nothing; as
to my strength I am weak; therefore I will not boast of myself, but
I will boast of my God, for in his strength I can do all things;
yea, behold, many mighty miracles we have wrought in this land, for
which we will praise his name forever." |

| Alma 36:3: |
|
|
"And now, O my son Helaman, behold, thou art in
thy youth, and therefore, I beseech of thee that thou wilt hear my
words and learn of me; for I do know that whosoever shall put their
trust in God shall be supported in their trials, and their troubles,
and their afflictions, and shall be lifted up at the last day." |

| Alma 37:37: |
|
|
"Counsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he
will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie
down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and
when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto
God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last
day." |
