BE STILL AND KNOW: SILENCE, PRAYER & THE PRESENCE OF GOD – JOEL S. GOLDSMITH | MYSTICAL TEACHING

BE STILL AND KNOW: SILENCE, PRAYER & THE PRESENCE OF GOD – JOEL S. GOLDSMITH | MYSTICAL TEACHING

In this deep contemplative message inspired by Joel S. Goldsmith, you are gently invited out of mental struggle and into the transforming mystery of the words: “Be still, and know that I am God.”

This video is not about learning more concepts about God. It is a living exploration of spiritual stillness, the kind of silence in which the Presence of God reveals Itself as the very life of your being. Joel S. Goldsmith’s Infinite Way understanding shines through every line: God is not a distant power to be persuaded or summoned. God is the infinite, invisible Presence that has never been absent, already functioning as your own consciousness of being.

You will be led step by step to see why so much ordinary prayer feels unanswered. It is not because God withholds, ignores, or sometimes refuses to act. Rather, as this talk explains, many of our prayers arise from fear, anxiety, and a belief in separation. We beg, plead, and mentally strive, unconsciously declaring that God is “out there” and must be brought “in here.” In doing so, we stay in the restless activity of the human mind—the one place where true spiritual realization cannot occur.

Joel S. Goldsmith’s teaching in this message shows that:

True prayer is not asking, but awareness.
Not persuading God, but quietly recognizing God already present.

The human mind cannot perform spiritual work.
Thought can point to truth, but it can never produce truth. The mind must grow quiet so divine consciousness can reveal Itself.

“Be still” is not a technique, but a surrender.
It is the release of the belief that you can think your way to God, fix life by effort, or “use” truth to change appearances.

Spiritual healing happens in silence.
Not by affirmations, denials, or mental arguments, but when the practitioner becomes still enough to let the one Presence announce Itself. In that realization, disease, lack, and fear are seen as illusions, shadows with no real power.

You will also be guided into a very practical way of living this stillness:

How to begin the day with a few quiet moments of receptivity, without trying to force an experience.

How to handle thoughts gently—letting them pass like clouds—so a deeper wordless awareness can emerge.

How to pause during a busy day for just a second, silently acknowledging: “God is here.”

How this simple, repeated turning within allows grace to flow into relationships, work, finances, and health without strain.

Over time, as Joel S. Goldsmith explains, this practice of inner stillness becomes a way of life. You respond less from fear and urgency, and more from a quiet center. You discover that life is actually living itself through you, that there is a divine activity guiding your decisions, softening your reactions, and arranging your steps.

The video culminates in a return to pure silence—the recognition that the real teaching is not in the words but in the Presence they point to. You are reminded that this Presence is closer than breath, nearer than thought, and that in any moment of turning inward, you can rest again in the truth:

God is the life of my being, and in the stillness, I know.

If you are drawn to mystical Christianity, the Infinite Way, contemplative prayer, or a deeper experience of “God within,” this message with the voice and spirit of Joel S. Goldsmith will help you move beyond techniques and into living realization.
