"The Sabbath Service Sabbath, March 7, was a day of deep solemnity. In the forenoon Elder Haskell spoke on the world-wide proclamation of the gospel. As in the apostolic age the gospel was proclaimed in its purity, with a power which carried it into all the world, so in the last days God is to bring out every ray of light in the everlasting gospel, and send it with the power of His Spirit into all the earth. LS 314"
"And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come."
The EGW passage directly echoes the sentiment of Matthew 24:14 regarding the worldwide proclamation of the gospel, especially in the last days. It's more than a thematic parallel; it's a direct application of the principle.
"responsible positions should go to God as often as did Daniel in earnest supplication for divine help. LS 314.2"
"Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime."
The EGW passage uses Daniel's prayer life as an example for those in responsible positions, drawing a clear parallel between their need for divine help and Daniel's consistent prayer life. The connection is strong and meaningful.
