1 Nephi 17:14

Yea, and the Lord said also that:

After ye have arrived in the promised land,

ye shall know that I, the Lord, am God;

and that I, the Lord, did deliver you from destruction;

yea, that I did bring you out of the land of Jerusalem.

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 17:55

And now, they said:

We know of a surety that the Lord is with thee,

for we know that it is the power of the Lord that has shaken us.

And they fell down before me, and were about to worship me,

but I would not suffer them, saying:

I am thy brother, yea, even thy younger brother;

wherefore, worship the Lord thy God,

and honor thy father and thy mother,

that thy days may be long in the land

which the Lord thy God shall give thee.

1 Nephi 18:16

Nevertheless, I did look unto my God,

and I did praise him all the day long;

and I did not murmur against the Lord because of mine afflictions.
