If You are Righteous Enough, Can You Get Blessings for Other People?

When I think of the word "righteous", sometimes I get a picture in my head of a list of tasks with checkmarks. That is completely incorrect and more like the style of worship the Pharisees lived in ancient times. The Savior frequently denounced their hypocrisy. The condition of their hearts did not match their actions.

The ancient prophet Moroni said, "For I remember the word of God which saith by their works ye shall know them; for if their works be good, then they are good also. For behold, God hath said a man being aevil cannot do that which is good; for if he offereth a gift, or prayeth unto God, except he shall do it with real dintent it profiteth him nothing. For behold, it is not counted unto him for righteousness." Moroni 7:5-7

Righteousness is seeking out the Lord's will and being obedient because we love Him. It involves being pure inside and out, with integrity of heart. There are times He is persuaded to grant us the special blessing we seek because of our love for Him. Sometimes that blessing is for ourselves, sometimes it is on behalf of someone else. We must remember that just because we ask and seek does not mean it will be given unless it is in harmony with His will for us. I could pray for the rest of my life to win the lottery but I doubt He wants me to go through that grand challenge before I master the smaller challenge of working within my means, budgeting and doing all things within my power to be a wise steward over my finances.

In the account of Alma the Younger in the Book of Mormon, an angel visits him to command him to cease his behavior which was injurious to the church. "...the angel said: Behold, the Lord hath heard the prayers of his people, and also the prayers of his servant, Alma, who is thy father; for he has prayed with much faith concerning thee that thou mightest be brought to the knowledge of the truth; therefore, for this purpose have I come to convince thee of the power and authority of God, that the prayers of his servants might be answered according to their faith." Mosiah 27:14

The pleadings of a righteous father and a people rang in the Lord's ears and He answered in a grand way. Can we plead for blessings for those we love? Of course we can! Does our faith and righteousness have power to persuade the Lord to bless? Yes, they do but each and every prayer needs to be concluded with "Thy will be done."

Elder Dale G. Renlund compared faith to the action of lighting a match to the process of building a fire. He said, "Restored truth reveals that blessings are never earned, but faith-inspired actions on our part, both initial and ongoing, are essential...most blessings that God desires to give us require action on our part—action based on our faith in Jesus Christ. Faith in the Savior is a principle of action and of power. First we act in faith; then the power comes—according to God’s will and timing. The sequence is crucial.The required action, though, is always tiny when compared to the blessings we ultimately receive." 1

Blessings pronounced and sealed upon our heads by those in authority are passed down to our posterity by inheritance. In such a way, we can seek blessings on behalf of others. The thirteenth article of faith states, "if there is anything lovely, virtuous, or of good report or praiseworthy, we seek after these things." May we continually seek to bless others through our actions and inspired prayer!

  • My story changed when I met Chief Ade through Elizabeth Traffords post on how she won the lottery with the help of Chief Ade. Spell is still very effective, I was convinced after using the numbers provided by Chief Ade when I told him I wanted to win the lottery because of the post I saw online about his winning numbers, he said he has helped a lot of people and I won’t be an exception to that, he put in work for me after I provided the necessary Informations he requested from me, after then he gave me the numbers to play after 24hours and directed me on how to play and when I should play them which I did, I won £5.2 million pounds, I’m excited that my dream has come through, Dr Ade is the best when it comes to winning the lottery with spell and prayers Email: chiefadespellhome@gmail.com  WhatsApp +234 901 380 6328 thank you

  • My name is Charles Coffey, I’m 81 years old and proud to be an Officer of the Order of Canada. I’ve always stood for good causes, but nothing prepared me for the sadness I felt after playing Lotto Max for years with no win. My wife begged me to stop wasting money it broke my heart. One day, while browsing online, I found stories about Lord Bubuza helping people win the lottery. I contacted him on WhatsApp, and he kindly told me what to do. Two hours after he cast his spell, he gave me 7 numbers and a bonus. I played them and I won $1,000,000. I was in shock. Lord Bubuza gave me joy and hope when I needed it most. I’ll be forever thankful. You can reach him via email: Lordbubuzamiraclework@hotmail.com or WhatsApp: +1 (365) 808 5313

  • I have been battling financial hardship for years. No matter how hard I worked or how many lottery tickets I bought, nothing ever changed until I came across the name Lord Bubuza, a powerful spell caster known for changing lives with his lottery numbers. Out of desperation, I reached out and asked for help. Lord Bubuza cast a lottery spell and gave me a set of numbers, assuring me that my luck was about to turn. Skeptical but with nothing to lose, I played the numbers and to my shock, I matched every single one. I won $2,000,000 and opted for a one-time payment of $1.3 million. I still can’t believe it, After all the money I wasted on tickets, Lord Bubuza made it happen in one try. He changed my life. I can’t stop thanking Lord Bubuza for the miracle that finally ended my struggle. Join me and thank him via email: Lordbubuzamiraclework@hotmail.com or WhatsApp: +1 (365) 808 5313
