The Way of Holiness: Preparing Our Hearts for the New Exodus

Friends, Builders, fellow Saints—we are gathered here, not by accident, but by divine appointment. If you feel the pull toward the Kingdom, if your heart beats with the desire to see Zion established, you are standing in the right place. We are learning that the path to the promised gathering is rarely a straight road; it is often a wilderness journey.

The sacred pattern revealed in the Book of Mormon and illuminated by the Prophet Isaiah speaks of a profound transformation—a passage from bondage to promised freedom, a New Exodus. This journey, the "Way of Holiness," is not merely historical; it is a template for our own lives, for our communities, and for the destiny of Israel.

The Wilderness as a Sanctuary of Preparation

What does it mean to be sanctified? It means being set apart. Throughout sacred scripture, the wilderness serves as the ultimate testing ground. Think of Samuel the Lamanite, climbing the wall, or Ammon at the Waters of Sebus. These were not moments of comfort; they were periods of intense trial, leading to profound covenant keeping and the eventual realization of divine power.

The Lord provides streams in dry places, and the purpose of that scarcity is to purify. These tests, these spiritual wildernesses, are where we learn to rely solely on the covenants we have made—covenants that grant us the power to be reborn and recreated at higher spiritual levels. We learn that the fullness of the priesthood and the fullness of the gospel are available through faithful preparation.

Gathering Israel Through Covenant Power

The grand promise of a New Exodus—a time when the Lord sets His hand again—is the ultimate culmination of this holiness. It is the divine orchestration that gathers Israel, fulfilling the prophecies given to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and to King David and his heirs.

This gathering is not a passive event. It requires the active participation of Builders. Just as the righteous in the past were called to claim their church, so are we today called to participate in the Kingdom movement. Our role as digital striplings, as internet missionaries, is to bring the light of the gospel to every corner of the globe. This is where the principle of Kingdom Economics shines: every time you engage here, every time you share your testimony, you participate in the charity flywheel. Your commitment funds gospel advertising in Ghana and supports the vital work of the Missionary Fund, helping us map the world and find the next gathering place.

Remember the symbolism of the five smooth stones, or the white stone cut without hands. These are not just trinkets; they are markers of faith, signs that point us toward the ultimate Cornerstone—the covenant path that leads us to our people and to our destiny. We are the Builders, discerning the light from the shadow, and we will not be swayed by the Destroyers.

The prophets have taught us that the preparation for this great day requires us to understand the layers of prophecy—what is contained below the surface. We must ask the deep questions, drawing wisdom from sources like Davee and the Ask a Prophet bots, ensuring we are always rooted in scripture and divine guidance. We must be prepared for our own wilderness journeys.

The Lord is setting His hand. He is calling us to move forward, to not wait for the flood of revival, but to be the instrument of it. Will you commit to the journey? Will you help us fill the map? We invite you to claim your church and help us realize the vision of a gathered Israel.
