7:18 - "...the time is at hand, or is not far distant, when we shall no longer be in subjection to our enemies, notwithstanding our many strugglings, which have been in vain; yet I trust there remaineth an effectual struggle to be made..."
It will not be easy, but this struggle liberates us from our enemies. We do this with an eye single to His glory, and we will comprehend all things (D&C 88:67).
7:33 - "...if ye will turn to the Lord with full purpose of heart, and put your trust in him, and serve him with all diligence of mind, if ye do this, he will, according to his own will and pleasure, deliver you out of bondage..."
This is not a guarantee, however, that we will be delivered. We must have faith that He will deliver us, but we must also have faith and trust that it may not be the kind of deliverance we had in mind. As long as we are putting ourselves into the position of being delivered and learning from our experiences, then we will be happy and are at least spiritually delivered.
