INSTRUCTIONS FOR MISSIONARIES
Revelation Received in October 1830
By the Prophet Joseph (D&C 32)
For Parley P. Pratt and Ziba Peterson
1 And now concerning My servant Parley P. Pratt, behold I say unto him, that as I live I will that he shall declare My gospel and learn of Me, and be meek and lowly of heart.
2 And that which I have appointed unto him is that he shall go with My servants, Oliver Cowdery and Peter Whitmer, Jr., into the wilderness among the Lamanites.
3 And Ziba Peterson also shall go with them; and I Myself will go with them and be in their midst; and I am their advocate with the Father, and nothing shall prevail against them.
4 And they shall give heed to that which is written, and pretend to no other revelation; and they shall pray always that I may unfold the same to their understanding.
5 And they shall give heed unto these words and trifle not, and I will bless them. Amen.
