The Miracles of The Lord Through Elijah

The prophet Elijah performed many miracles while living on Earth. These miracles help us understand how the sealing keys work.

 The sealing keys have a great power, they can bless and curse and only someone as wise as the Prophet can have them. This keys can bless just as Elijah helped the widow bringing back his son from death. They also bless as when the ravens brought him food and he was protected while hiding. Another blessing happened when it started raining after a lot of time. 

But these keys can also curse those who are not obedient or are unbelievers of the things of the Lord. We can read examples of this in 2 Kings 1:9-14 when the king wanted to know if we was going to live by asking Baal-zebub and not the prophet of the Lord. Elijah cursed the kings army by sending fire to them to be burned and then he prophesied that Ahaziah was going to die. 

In these days our Prophet Thomas S. Monson has these keys, and he can perform miracles the same way every Prophet has done. We need to be of those who follow the prophet and hear what he commands, because it is as if the Lord himself was talking to us directly.

These weekend we will have the opportunity to hear God's words through his prophets and apostles. Let us all be prepared with our minds and hearts to receive the commandments we have to live and fulfill to continue living happy and blessed by the Lord every day.
