Conditions of Answered PrayerIn order to be purified and to remain pure, Seventh-day Adventists must have the Holy Spirit in their hearts and in their homes. The Lord has given me light that when the Israel of today humble themselves before Him, and cleanse the soul-temple from all defilement, He will hear their prayers in behalf of the sick and will bless in the use of His remedies for disease. When in faith the human agent does all he can to combat disease, using the simple methods of treatment that God has provided, his efforts will be blessed of God. {9T 164.1}

Betingelser for at blive bønhørt
For at blive renset og forblive rene må syvende-dags adventister have Helligånden i deres hjerter og i deres hjem. Herren har oplyst mig om, at når vor tids Israel ydmyger sig for ham og renser sjælens tempel for al besmittelse, vil han høre deres bønner for de syge og velsigne brugen af de lægemidler, han har givet mod sygdom. Når det menneskelige redskab i tro gør alt, hvad han kan for at bekæmpe sygdom, idet han bruger de enkle metoder, som Gud har vist os, vil hans bestræbelser blive velsignet af Gud.
