"The mighty power that works through all nature and sustains all things is not, as some men of science represent, merely an all-pervading principle, an actuating energy. God is a Spirit; yet He is a personal Being; for so He has revealed Himself: MH 413.1"
Direct citation 95% John 4:24
"God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth."
EGW directly references the concept of God as a Spirit, which is the core message of John 4:24. She builds upon this by clarifying that this doesn't negate His personal nature.

"And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you."
Both passages address the nature of God. Exodus 3:14 reveals God's self-existence and eternal nature, which supports EGW's statement about God being a personal being, not just an abstract principle.
"He is the living God, and an everlasting King: ... The gods that have not made the heavens and the earth, Even they shall perish from the earth, and from under these heavens.” MH 413.2"

"And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the most High, and I praised and honoured him that liveth for ever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation:"
Both passages emphasize God's eternal reign and kingship. The EGW passage even includes a direct quote that echoes the sentiment found in Daniel.
"“Let us worship and bow down: Let us kneel before the Lord.” “In His hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the mountains are His also. The sea is His, and He made it; And His hands formed the dry land.” Psalm 95:6 ; 95:4, 5 , A.R.V. MH 413.6"
