What does Ellen White write about...
Adventistische Schriften über: "All problems should be solved with prayer!"
Answer
In every difficulty and challenge believers should see a call to prayer and bring all their worries, plans, and needs trustfully before God. When we seek the Lord daily, obey Him, and ask Him for wisdom, He promises to resolve confusing problems and provide assistance. At the same time Ellen White emphasizes that prayer and active, faithful action must go hand in hand for God's guidance in life to become fully effective.
Understanding Every Difficulty as a Call to Prayer
»The path of men who are appointed as leaders is not easy. Yet they should see a call to prayer in every difficulty. They must never fail to consult the great source of all wisdom. Strengthened and enlightened by the Master Worker, they will be enabled to withstand unholy influences and to distinguish right from wrong, good from evil.«
Confusing Problems Are Solved Through Devotion
»If you seek the Lord and turn to Him daily, if you are freely and joyfully in God by your own spiritual decision, if you follow His gracious call with the joyful consent of your heart and bear the yoke of Christ—the yoke of obedience and service—then all your murmuring will cease, all your difficulties will be removed, and all the confusing problems that now confront you will be solved.«
Entrusting Everything to God in Prayer
»Pray, pray; be persistent in prayer. Commit everything to God in prayer—your business worries, your disappointments, your joys, your fears. Do this ... and you will have an awareness of God's presence, and gratitude and thankfulness will flow from your heart and lips in audible praise.«
Prayer and Faithful Work Must Work Together
»The power gained in prayer to God, combined with personal effort to train the mind toward mindfulness and care, prepares a person for daily duties and keeps the spirit in peace under all circumstances, however testing they may be. ... Yet reflection and prayer cannot take the place of faithful, earnest use of time. Work and prayer are both required to perfect the Christian character.«
What Human Power Cannot Achieve, Prayer and Faith Accomplish
»Prayer and faith will accomplish what no power on earth can achieve. We are rarely in the same situation twice in every respect. We must constantly experience new scenes and new trials, in which earlier experiences cannot provide sufficient guidance. We need the constant light that comes from God.«
