“I Will Rebuke the Devourer for Your Sakes”

Bryan Richards

Gordon B. Hinckley

"The Lord has promised that he will rebuke the devourer for our sakes…May not that rebuke of the devourer apply to various of our personal efforts and concerns? There is the great blessing of wisdom, of knowledge, even hidden treasures of knowledge. We are promised that ours shall be a delightsome land if we will walk in obedience to this law. I can interpret the word land as people, that those who walk in obedience shall be a delightsome people. What a marvelous condition to be a delightsome people whom others would describe as blessed!" (Ensign, May 1982, p. 40 as taken from Latter-day Commentary on the Book of Mormon compiled by K. Douglas Bassett, p. 453)
