I checked both rsc.byu.edu and josephsmithpapers.org for a source connected to spiritual promptings, personal revelation, and deepening covenant relationships. I found a relevant article on rsc.byu.edu that directly addresses the nature of personal revelation and its reception, which aligns well with today's topic.

This article, "Receiving Revelation: The Gift of the Holy Ghost" by Robert L. Millet, explains that receiving personal revelation through the Holy Ghost is a continuous process available to all faithful members of the Church, not just prophets. It discusses how the Holy Ghost communicates truth and guidance to individuals, often through thoughts, feelings, and impressions, helping them understand the gospel and receive direction for their lives. The author emphasizes the importance of worthiness, study, and prayer in preparing oneself to receive and recognize these divine communications.

1. How does understanding the Holy Ghost as a constant companion for revelation, rather than just an occasional manifestation, change one's approach to daily decision-making and seeking divine guidance?
2. Considering your morning intention to diligently listen for spiritual promptings and act on received guidance, what specific adjustments might you make to your routine or mindset to better prepare yourself to receive and recognize the promptings of the Holy Ghost as described in this source?
