What he was modeling for others and recommending they do, was to cultivate a pristine faith and belief in us. That is the key, always, for obtaining a human-divine partnership that is an effective interplay to gain something advantageous by the human involved. It is a high standard, indeed, and any negativity may be enough to limit what we can do, at least in the short term, to answer prayers. For example, we always go to work on what is happening in answer to a prayer, but the efforts underway will likely be on other timelines because there is insufficient energy to change the existing life course directly and swiftly. So the prayer will seem to have fallen flat, remaining unanswered even though that will not be the case. It is difficult for humans to know, let alone believe, that every prayer is answered, at least to the extent allowable. So what you are asking about this divine individual in terms of his level of belief, especially, compared to the average person, reflects how very important a seemingly simple distinction can be, but it is easier said than done. Just as the concept of perfection may be well understood in a given context but will prove to be tantalizingly out of reach much more so than not, his life is a good illustration of the value of striving for perfection in forming a partnership with us. Perfection is not required, but imperfection will be a negative influence to some extent, unavoidably.
