And now, if God, who has created you, on whom you are dependent for your lives and for all that ye have and are, doth grant unto you whatsoever ye ask that is right, in faith, believing that ye shall receive, O then, how ye ought to impart of the substance that ye have one to another. - Mosiah 4:21.
"The Lord says that the efficacy of our prayers depends upon our liberality to the poor . . .," said President Marion G. Romney, second counselor in the First Presidency, in an address at the April 1979 general conference."Do you think that this matter of taking care of the poor is one that we can disregard and still obtain the blessings of the Lord? Not at all. We obey it or we pay the penalty."
