Rulings

If Answered Prayers becomes a creature but you haven’t controlled it continuously since your most recent turn began, you won’t be able to attack with it.

2019-06-14

Once Answered Prayers becomes a creature, you’ll still gain life whenever a creature enters the battlefield under your control.
