"And it came to pass that I, Nephi, beheld the power of the Lamb of God, that it descended upon the saints of the church of the Lamb, and upon the covenant people of the Lord, who were scattered upon all the face of the earth; and they were armed with righteousness and with the power of God in great glory."
This is the scripture for troubling times. It speaks of covenant people accomplishing good works (righteousness) while having the (protection?) and efficacy of Christ's power, with the end result being glorious. This is not defeat, nor captivity. It is the opposite, and it is well worth pursuing.
In verse 17, it says that when there are wars and rumors of wars throughout the world, then will "the work of the Father shall commence, in preparing the way for the fulfilling of his covenants, which he hath made to his people who are of the house of Israel."
