Those Who Do Missionary Work
(These promises were gathered by Bob Gay, David Wingate and Clayton Christensen.)
In the Doctrine and Covenants the Lord makes these promises to those who preach the gospel:
Power and strength while you serve the Lord
None shall stay you (1:5).
You will have the power of God unto the convincing of men (11:21).
The gates of hell shall not prevail against you (17:8).
Receive “strength such as is not known among men” (24:12).
I myself will go with you and be in your midst. Nothing shall prevail against you. (32:3).
Your mouth “shall be filled” and you shall “become even as Nephi of old” (D&C 33:8).
You’re arm will be God's arm. He will be your shield and buckler; He will “gird up” your loins; and put your enemies under your feet (35:14).
Power shall rest upon you. You shall have great faith. I will be with you, and go before your face (39:12).
Your enemies will not have power over you (44:5).
The Lord will stand by you (68:6).
No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper (71:9).
I will uphold you (93:51).
I will bear you up as on eagles’ wings; and you shall beget glory and honor to yourself and unto the Lord’s name (124:18).

A hair from your head shall not fall to the ground unnoticed (84:80, 116).
Teaching and Speaking
Your words shall be scripture; shall be the will of the Lord, shall be the mind of the Lord, and shall be the voice of the Lord, and the power of God unto salvation (68:4).
It shall be given you in the very hour that portion that shall be meted unto every man (84:85)
You shall have power to declare my word (99:2).
You will not be confounded and it shall be given in the very moment what ye shall say (100: 5).
The Holy Ghost shall be shed forth in bearing record of all things, whatsoever ye shall say (100:8).
By thy word many high ones shall be brought low; and by thy word many low ones shall be exalted (112:8).
The Holy Spirit Will Be With You
I will send upon you the Comforter, which shall teach you the truth and the way whither you shall go (79:2).
There will I be also, for I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left, and my Spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up. (84:88).
