An Exalted Privilege . God is the Teacher of His people. All who humble their hearts before Him will be taught of God. “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” The Lord wants every church member to pray earnestly for wisdom, that he may know what the Lord would have him do. It is the privilege of every believer to obtain an individual experience, learning to carry his cares and perplexities to God. It is written, “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you.” {TM 478.2}

Et ophøjet privilegium
Gud er sit folks lærer. Alle der ydmyger deres hjerter for ham, vil blive lært af Gud. »Hvis nogen af jer står tilbage i visdom, da skal han bede om at få den fra Gud, der giver alle gavmildt og uden bebrejdelser, og så vil den blive ham givet.« Herren ønsker ethvert menighedsmedlem skal bede alvorligt efter visdom, så han kan vide hvad Herren vil have ham til at gøre. Det er enhver troenes forret at opnå en personlig erfaring og lære at føre sin bekymringer og forviklinger til Gud. Der står skrevet »Hold jer nær til Gud, så skal han holde sig nær til jer!«
