Super Bowl 54 and the Prophecy of the Chiefs!

I completely forgot to share something in the video that was in my notes. I had wanted to mention that on Sunday we watched an episode of Little House on the Prarie that was titled "Injun" and was about a Native American boy who was trying to assimilate into the white man culture and the local kids were making it very hard on him and being cruel. The underlying theme was that instead of forcing someone to conform to the norm, allow them to be who they really are. At the end of the episode the teacher agreed to call him by his Sioux name "Spotted Eagle" instead of his new white name "Joseph". Then when I heard that the Chiefs had won the Super Bowl after we watched this episode, I began to feel that we are entering the time spoken of in Doctrine and Covenants 49:24 -25

25 But before the great day of the Lord shall come, Jacob shall flourish in the wilderness, and the Lamanites shall blossom as the rose."

25 Zion shall flourish upon the hills and rejoice upon the mountains, and shall be assembled together unto the place which I have appointed.

The prophets of the BOM foretold of the European exploration of America (1 Ne. 13:12-15), the American Revolution (1 Ne. 13:16-19), and the gathering of Israel (1 Ne. 22; 3 Ne. 20-22). They warned of deceptive practices among religionists, including priestcraft, and secret combinations here in America in our day.
In the Journal of Discourses Orson Pratt 3:3 he says,"

"Zion must be redeemed before that day; the temple must be built upon the consecrated spot, the cloud and glory of the Lord rest upon it, and the Lamanites, many of them, brought in, and they must build up the NEW JERUSALEM! It is true, so says the Book of Mormon, that inasmuch as the Gentiles receive the Gospel, they shall assist my people the remnant of Jacob, saith the Lord, to build the New Jerusalem. And when they have got it built, then we are told that they shall assist my people who are of Jacob to be gathered in unto the New Jerusalem."

And lastly regarding prophecy of the "Chiefs", in the Journal of Discourses Wilford Woodruff 15:35 he said,

"The Lamanites will blossom as the rose on the mountains. I am willing to say here that, though I believe this, when I see the power of the nation destroying them from the face of the earth, the fulfillment of that prophecy is perhaps harder for me to believe than any revelation of God that I ever read. It looks as though there would not be enough left to receive the Gospel; but notwithstanding this dark picture, every word that God has ever said of them will have its fulfillment, and they, by and by, will receive the Gospel. It will be a day of God’s power among them, and a nation will be born in a day. Their CHIEFS WILL BE FILLED WITH THE POWER OF GOD AND RECEIVE THE GOSPEL, and they will go forth and build the new Jerusalem, and we shall help them. They are branches of the house of Israel, and when the fullness of the Gentiles has come in and the work ceases among them, then it will go in power to the seed of Abraham."

WE ARE LIVING IN EXCITING AND REMARKABLE TIMES! ❤️ 

(Side note: I had read an article that this was Super Bowl 33 and I quoted that in the video. Clearly that is incorrect. It was not Super Bowl 33).
