Accessing Spiritual Understanding Through Stillness and Meditation
God is Spirit, and humanity was created in His image. We are spirit beings with souls living in physical bodies. The body relates to the physical world, the soul processes thoughts and emotions, while the spirit connects with God and spiritual truth. Many people read the Bible yet struggle to understand it because they approach spiritual words with the mind alone. Jesus said His words are spirit. I believe deeper understanding comes when we become still and meditate on God’s word. While travelling in a tricycle on August 31, 2026, I repeatedly heard the words, “Be still and know.” This led me to reflect on Psalm 46:10 and the role of quiet meditation in receiving wisdom. Scripture encourages believers to keep God’s word in their hearts, meditate on it day and night, and allow it to guide them. Stillness creates room for spiritual reflection. When you read a Bible verse, pause, quiet your mind, and meditate on it. Through the Spirit of God, the scriptures can become clearer and more meaningful. Do not hoard knowledge; share it.
