Be Still and Know || Sam Goulet
In this episode, Samuel explores the foundational role of solitude and silence in prayer, emphasizing how true intimacy with God begins when we separate ourselves from distractions and embrace stillness. Drawing on biblical examples and verses—including Jesus’ teachings and the exhortations of Psalms and Lamentations—Samuel discusses the challenges and fears that often accompany being alone and quiet before God, such as anxiety and restlessness. He encourages listeners to build a regular practice of spending quiet, solitary time with God, noting that such moments not only deepen our knowledge of God but also reveal the voices and patterns influencing our lives. Samuel offers practical advice for scheduling time for solitude and silence, reminding us that spiritual growth unfolds as we break through discomfort and consistently seek God in the secret place. This teaching is a call to cultivate spiritual maturity by knowing God personally, apart from others, and pressing on even when it feels awkward or difficult.
