Hello, my friends. Welcome to another Follow Him favorites where we take a single question

0:10.4

from each week's lesson and answer it. John, the lesson this week is in Hosea and Joel.

0:17.7

And I'm going to pull the question right out of the manual. It quotes Joel chapter 2 verse

0:23.3

28 about the Lord pouring out his spirit upon all flesh and then asks this question. What do you

0:31.0

think it means that the Lord would pour out his spirit upon all flesh? So John, how would you answer

0:37.4

that question? What do you think it means? Well, after what you just read, it says, your sons and your

0:43.7

daughters shall prophesy your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions and Hank,

0:51.8

both of us are pretty lucky to be able to hang out with young adults. And even in the 20 something

1:05.1

now coming into the classes, your daughter shall prophesy. I was thinking about when I saw that verse.

you're a prophet or a prophetess small letter P. And where did you get that testimony? You got it

1:34.2

because the Lord poured out his spirit and told you that. And I think he's willing to do more.

1:39.4

President Nelson has asked us to learn to hear him. I think because he knows the Lord wants to give us

1:44.4

more if we'll go ask. Now, John, I've been super impressed with my students just through the years,

1:53.0

the way they follow promptings. Some of the insights they give when we're studying the scriptures

1:59.0

together, I'll stop and say, I got to write that down. That is such an impressive insight. And

2:04.7

I don't think that they know about themselves that they're part of this promise that you listening,

2:10.9

right now you listening to John and I talk you, bury you, you the person, you're like me, yes,

2:15.8

you, you are part of this outpouring of the spirit. It's been on you. You're one of these sons or
