1 Nephi 16:10

And it came to pass that as my father arose in the morning,

and went forth to the tent door,

to his great astonishment he beheld upon the ground

a round ball of curious workmanship;

and it was of fine brass.

And within the ball were two spindles;

and the one pointed the way whither we should go into the wilderness.

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 18:2

Now I, Nephi, did not work the timbers after the manner which was learned by men,

neither did I build the ship after the manner of men;

but I did build it after the manner which the Lord had shown unto me;

wherefore, it was not after the manner of men.

1 Nephi 18:4

And it came to pass that after I had finished the ship,

according to the word of the Lord,

my brethren beheld that it was good,

and that the workmanship thereof was exceedingly fine;

wherefore, they did humble themselves again before the Lord.
