President Russell M. Nelson said, “I promise that increased time in the temple will bless your life in ways nothing else can.”

Here are five blessings of temple worship that he has shared over the years.

1. Confidence and Clarity

“Regular temple worship will enhance the way you see yourself and how you fit into God’s magnificent plan” (“Rejoice in the Gift of Priesthood Keys,” April 2024).

2. Spiritual Strength

“Each person who makes covenants in baptismal fonts and in temples—and keeps them—has increased access to the power of Jesus Christ” (“Overcome the World and Find Rest,” October 2022).

3. Life-Changing Lessons

“Construction of these temples may not change your life, but your time in the temple surely will” (“Let Us All Press On,” April 2018).

4. Divine Direction

“You will learn how to part the veil between heaven and earth, how to ask for God’s angels to attend you, and how better to receive direction from heaven” (“The Temple and Your Spiritual Foundation,” October 2021).

5. Protection and Promptings

“I promise you that over time, the temple will become a place of safety, solace, and revelation” (“The Temple and Your Spiritual Foundation,” October 2021).
