Any answer to prayer that conflicts with Scripure is not from God.

I don't think you or I have the authority to dictate to God what He is allowed to tell someone. Besides, we are talking about clarifying meaning, not overruling what is written. You are inflating your personal distaste of the possibility that God may have used alliteration (apparently without checking with you first to see if you would allow Him to do so) into an empty argument that He is not allowed to even help someone understand what He meant.

Scripture is the ultimate authority as far as it is revealed to us. If anyone believes anything that contradicts scripture, that person is engaging in heresy. The Bible claims itself to be the Word of God.

I see, so the bible doesn't mean what it says? God is saying one thing but it is tricky so that you have to be a God-hating naturalist to understand it? I am the one taking scrpture at face value, you are the one reading weird things (like NATURALISTIC science) into it. Hmmm....
