[Apostle Wilford Woodruff Journal] 25th Sunday I met with the saints. Spoke A short time. Was followed by Brother Grover Page & others. I then Confirmed 3 persons. One was my Father in Law Ezra Carter. We partook of the sacrament was Administered. I spoke A few moments upon the power & influence of the spirit & work of God in heaven & on Earth. In heaven the Lord had power over Lucipher son of the Morning & on Earth the Lord has power over the devil & so has his servants when they have the spirit of God in them. And if A man does his Duty his house will be a house of salvation. All men the righteous & wicked that come beneath his roof will feel the influence of the spirit that reigns in that house.
I held A meeting Also in the Evening & had a good time.
