WHY YOUR PRAYER FAILS – And How ONENESS Changes Everything | Joel S. Goldsmith

What if everything you were taught about prayer is the very reason it seems not to work? In this profound teaching inspired by Joel S. Goldsmith, we explore a radical shift: prayer is not begging a distant God to change outer conditions, but awakening to the presence of God already within.

This video gently but firmly challenges the traditional idea of praying to a God outside ourselves. As Joel S. Goldsmith explains, the moment we believe in two powers—God and the problem, good and evil, spirit and matter—we step out of spiritual reality and into illusion. We then spend our lives pleading with God to remove fear, heal disease, supply our needs, or fix our struggles, all the while unconsciously declaring those conditions to be real powers.

Here, you’ll be led into a deeper understanding of true prayer:

Prayer as recognition, not request.

Prayer as awareness of oneness, not a struggle against a second power.

Prayer as listening, not speaking.

Prayer as resting in presence, not striving to make God act.

You’ll hear how Joel S. Goldsmith points to the great inner turning where prayer ceases to be human effort and becomes divine revelation. Instead of saying, “God, fix this,” we begin to see that “there is no power apart from God,” and that what we called a problem was only a shadow before the light of realized oneness.

The message guides you through the simple but life-changing practice of stopping—brief pauses throughout the day where you turn inward, let the mind grow still, release all attempts to control life, and softly acknowledge: “I and the Father are one… Thou art here… The place whereon I stand is holy ground.” In these moments of quiet recognition, a new atmosphere begins to form within you: peace replaces anxiety, assurance replaces fear, and grace begins to flow without your effort.

As you carry this awareness into everyday life—washing dishes, standing in line, talking with family—you discover that God is not visiting you in special moments, but is the very life living as you, through you, and in you. This is the essence of the Infinite Way as shared by Joel S. Goldsmith: a life lived in ongoing God-consciousness, where prayer is not to bring God into your situation, but to realize that God never left.

If you have ever wondered why your most sincere prayers seemed unanswered, this teaching will invite you into a completely new dimension of spiritual living—where prayer is no longer about getting something, but about awakening to what already is.

Watch to the end, and let this message draw you into a silence where the true answer to every prayer is revealed: the recognition of one power, one presence, one life.
