"“Your success is in your simplicity. As soon as you depart from this, and fashion your testimony to meet the minds of any, your power is gone. Almost everything in this age is glossed and unreal. The world abounds in testimonies given to please and charm for the moment, and to exalt self. Your testimony is of a different character. It is to come down to the minutiae of life, keeping the feeble faith from dying, and pressing home upon believers the necessity of shining as lights in the world. LS 202.1"
"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
EGW explicitly mentions the necessity of believers 'shining as lights in the world,' which is a direct allusion to Matthew 5:16. The context of letting one's light shine is also similar.
"“God has given you your testimony to set before the backslider and the sinner his true condition, and the immense loss he is sustaining by continuing a life of sin. God has impressed this upon you by opening it before your vision as He has to no other one now living; and according to the light He has given you, will He hold you responsible. ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.’ ‘Lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and show My people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.’” Zechariah 4:6 ; Isaiah 58:1 . LS 202.2"
"Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts."
Ellen White directly references Zechariah 4:6 in this passage.
"Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins."
Ellen White directly references Isaiah 58:1 in this passage.
"to light and happiness. I knew that help had come from God. This manifestation appeared to me like a miracle of God's mercy, and I will not be ungrateful for His loving-kindness. LS 202.3"
"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."
Both passages connect God with light and good gifts. EGW's statement about help coming from God and being grateful for His loving-kindness echoes the sentiment of James 1:17, which emphasizes that every good and perfect gift comes from the Father of lights.
