1 Nephi 16:29

And there was also written upon them a new writing, which was plain to be read,

which did give us understanding concerning the ways of the Lord;

and it was written and changed from time to time,

according to the faith and diligence which we gave unto it.

And thus we see that by small means the Lord can bring about great things.

1 Nephi 17:35

Behold, the Lord esteemeth all flesh in one;

he that is righteous is favored of God.

But behold, this people had rejected every word of God,

and they were ripe in iniquity;

and the fulness of the wrath of God was upon them;

and the Lord did curse the land against them,

and bless it unto our fathers;

yea, he did curse it against them unto their destruction,

and he did bless it unto our fathers

unto their obtaining power over it.

1 Nephi 17:52

And it came to pass that I, Nephi, said many things unto my brethren,

insomuch that they were confounded and could not contend against me;

neither durst they lay their hands upon me nor touch me with their fingers,

even for the space of many days.

Now they durst not do this lest they should wither before me,

so powerful was the Spirit of God;

and thus it had wrought upon them.

1 Nephi 18:15

And it came to pass that we were about to be swallowed up in the depths of the sea.

And after we had been driven back upon the waters for the space of four days,

my brethren began to see that the judgments of God were upon them,

and that they must perish save that they should repent of their iniquities;

wherefore, they came unto me, and loosed the bands which were upon my wrists,

and behold they had swollen exceedingly;

and also mine ankles were much swollen,

and great was the soreness thereof.

1 Nephi 19:1

And it came to pass that the Lord commanded me,

wherefore I did make plates of ore

that I might engraven upon them the record of my people.

And upon the plates which I made I did engraven the record of my father,

and also our journeyings in the wilderness, and the prophecies of my father;

and also many of mine own prophecies have I engraven upon them.
