Alma 58

This is the end of Helaman's epistle to Moroni that began in chapter 56. The armies are depleted and not being sufficiently re-enforced and resupplied. The situation is dire and the Nephites are left to pray for God's support and protection. They pray that they will be able to retain the cities they have taken back from the Lamanites that were theirs to begin with. The Lord answers their prayers and gives them assurance that he will keep them protected from the Lamanites. As a result, the Nephites are able to outfox the Lamanites and take back a key city, Mani, without shedding any blood.
