"God knows the end from the beginning. He is acquainted with the hearts of all men. He reads every secret of the soul. He knows whether those for whom prayer is offered would or would not be able to endure the trials that would come upon them should they live. He knows whether their lives would be a blessing or a curse to themselves and to the world. This is one reason why, while presenting our petitions with earnestness, we should say, “Nevertheless not my will, but Thine, be done.” [ Luke 22:42 .] Jesus added these words of submission to the wisdom and will of God when in the garden of Gethsemane He pleaded, “O My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from Me.” [ Matthew 26:39 .] And if they were appropriate for Him, the Son of God, how much more are they becoming on the lips of finite, erring mortals! GW 218.1"
"Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done."
Ellen White directly references Luke 22:42 in this passage.
"And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt."
Ellen White directly references Matthew 26:39 in this passage.
"For if our heart condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things."
Both passages highlight God's omniscience and the importance of submitting to His will, especially in prayer. 1 John 3:20 speaks of God knowing all things, which supports the idea that He knows what is best, as discussed in the EGW passage.
"The consistent course is to commit our desires to our all-wise heavenly Father, and then, in perfect confidence, trust all to Him. We know that God hears us if we ask according to His will. But to press our petitions without a submissive spirit is not right; our prayers must take the form, not of command, but of intercession. GW 218.2"
"Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."
The EGW passage directly reflects the principle of submitting to God's will in prayer, as expressed in Matthew 6:10. Both emphasize that our prayers should align with God's will rather than being forceful demands.
