In D&C 94:12, the Lord commands that a house be “wholly dedicated unto the Lord from the foundation thereof.” Revealed in 1833, this verse teaches that sacred purpose must guide every effort—whether building, creating, or serving. When we work “according to the pattern” God gives, our actions become holy, our foundations strong, and our lives aligned with divine purpose.

In D&C 94:8–9, the Lord commands that no unclean thing enter His house, promising that His glory and presence will dwell only where holiness prevails. Revealed in 1833, this powerful principle reminds us that purity—both physical and spiritual—invites divine power. When we keep our homes, temples, and hearts clean, God’s glory fills them with peace and light.
