The Sons of Mosiah were asked to go preach the gospel unto the Lamanites (their enemy). That would be a scary task knowing how much the people you were supposed to convert hated you and wanted you dead. And yet you wanted to obey God and do as He asks.
They would have to have had a lot of Faith not only in their father but in their Heavenly Father to keep them safe and allow everything to go okay.

Satan tries to influence Gods people and to get wicked leaders in leadership so that he can better bring our his plan. It's amazing though that we forget sometimes that really our Father in Heaven is in charge and regardless of who is in leadership no one can do anything contrary to God's will without some kind of punishment.

God has his plan and it will be executed to bring good to His people.
God blesses us as He sees fit, we must keep doing as He asks and continuously be looking for and recognizing the blessings He gives us each day, especially the days it's harder to notice them.

Blessing- Heavenly Father blesses us even when we don't deserve it.

The Lord has said it is our duty to teach our children in their youth, and I prefer to take His word for it rather than the words of those who are not obeying His commandments.. I may know that the gospel is true, and so may my wife; but I want to tell you that your children will not know that the gospel is true, unless they study it and gain a testimony for themselves. Parents are deceiving themselves in imagining that their children will be born with a knowledge of the gospel." (Richard O. Cowan, The Church in the Twentieth Century, p. 319)*...

Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We all do a lot of studying, but most of us don't do much meditation. We don't take time to think. I'd like to suggest that next fast day . . . everybody in this hall set aside an hour or two. Sit by yourself. Go in the bedroom and lock the door. Go out in the yard under a tree. Go in your study if you have one and shut the door, and think about yourself and your worthiness. Read from this great book [Book of Mormon]...There's a great word that's used, 'ponder.' "'Ponder.' What do we mean by 'ponder'? Well, I think it simply means kind of quietly thinking things through. Ponder what you have read. Ponder your life. Are you worthy, are you living the commandments...?" (Church News, 01/06/96) -Christ commanded them to; 1. " ponder upon the things which I have said, 2. ask the Father, in my name, that ye many understand, 3. prepare your minds for the morrow ," (3 Nephi 17:3) -The thing...
