STOP ASKING GOD — TRUE PRAYER IS RECOGNITION: “BE STILL & KNOW” | Joel S. Goldsmith

STOP ASKING GOD — TRUE PRAYER IS RECOGNITION: “BE STILL & KNOW” | Joel S. Goldsmith “Before they call, I will answer.” If that is true—and scripture insists it is—then anxious prayer collapses on the spot. This teaching (in the spirit of Joel S. Goldsmith and The Infinite Way) begins with a radical shift: we do not start prayer by asking, because the moment we ask, we quietly assume absence and accept lack. Instead, we begin where truth already stands: God is present now. In this message you’ll hear why prayer is not a journey upward, not a search for the right words, not an attempt to persuade God, and not a technique for getting results. “Your Father knoweth what things ye have need of before ye ask.” That means prayer cannot be informing God, convincing God, or moving God into action. God does not intervene like a distant ruler who sometimes decides to respond. God constitutes—“In Him we live and move and have our being.” If there is nowhere to go from God’s presence, then prayer is not an ascent. It is an awakening—a yielding inward. Stillness is the doorway—not as a method or discipline, but as surrender: the relinquishment of the belief that something must be done before God can be present. “Be still and know.” Knowing is not thinking. Knowing is awareness. This is the “secret place of the Most High” that is not visited through effort but revealed when effort ceases. When we approach prayer with questions—“Will God heal me? Provide? Help?”—we step outside the sanctuary and accept two powers: the problem here, the solution there. But scripture is uncompromising: “The Lord our God is one.” One means one. From there, the teaching exposes why so much sincere prayer produces so little peace: because it’s often fear talking to hope—fear of disease reaching for health, fear of lack reaching for supply. Yet fear and hope live at the same level of consciousness: the level that has not fully recognized God as all. True prayer is not a lever. It is not repetition. It is not mental treatment trying to make harmony happen. True prayer is listening: “Speak, Lord, for Thy servant heareth.” Not words to God, but consciousness yielding to God—until asking dissolves and gratitude becomes natural. The dividing line becomes clear: there are two states of consciousness from which prayer arises—asking and knowing. Asking assumes lack and postpones good into time. Knowing rests in the eternal IS: God is, life is, harmony is. And here comes the startling freedom: asking can delay healing because it keeps attention on the condition and quietly grants it reality. Recognition releases attention from the problem and rests it in God—where the appearance loses authority and peace “that passeth understanding” remains. This is the heart of Joel S. Goldsmith’s message: prayer ends as effort and becomes communion—not to make something happen, but to see what already is. No formula. No strain. Just the quiet recognition: God is—and that is enough. Keywords (30, comma-separated; includes Joel S. Goldsmith) Joel S.
