“Be Still And Know That That I Am God,”
Says The Almighty

By
The Man Who Saw God Face To Face
Raphael Okechukwu Nweze

1. Enter the silent palace of God and see Him face to face.
2. Enter the heavenly kingdom and enjoy the blessings and treasures therein.
3. To trust in the Lord and reap abundant benefits, instead of striving from day to day without fruition (gains).
4. To listen to the voice of silence and hear the words of the Holy Spirit, which speaks to man always.
5. To open the door for the manifestations of the omnipotence, omniscience and omnipresence of God.
6. Every day activities and boisterous occasions cannot give freedom and salvation or eternal life to man.
7. To open the seven spiritual centers in man, to activate them and utilize them for our physical and spiritual wellbeing.
8. To free one's spirit from this world of illusion and be able to visit the heavenly kingdoms, even while a person is still living on earth.
9. Observe quiet times and God will manifest himself to you.
10. Silence is the abode of God, and quietness, the gateway into His presence.
11. It is by silent meditation that people grow in spirit and in truth, to become perfect like God.
12. To overcome the world, you have to attain spiritual equilibrium, the calm supremacy of the mind over life’s changing situations.
13. Accustom yourself to quiet environment, for your spiritual potentials to become manifest and functional.
14. Ensure silence in temples and holy places. People are free to associate and converse, but not at a noisy level.
15. Avoid every form of noisy vibrations, booming sound and bombarding music.

1. Observe Quiet Times.
   Observe periods of silence, quietness, solitude and meditation.
   


2. Control Your Thoughts.
   By so doing, you stop the mind from wandering from one thought to another. Do not allow your mind to wander. Keep it blank, not thinking of anything, just as if you are about to fall sleep.
   


3. Control The Senses.
   Control the senses of sight (eyes), hearing (ears), taste (blood, tongue), touch (body) and smell (nose). Do not let them see, hear or touch everything they want to. Bring them under control.
   


4. Avoid Sensations.
   Sensations are flashy or attractive things or places. For an example, if a lady teacher goes to the class room with attire that is too gorgeous and flamboyant, the students are likely to pay more attention to her dressing than to her teachings. The same thing applies when you allow sensation all around you. Your mind, spirit and heart will focus attention on the objects of sensation, instead of meditating on God, life or heaven.
   


5. Avoid Noise.
   Unfortunately, humanity dwell in noisy environments, out of spiritual ignorance. People do not know what they lose because of noise. Everyday, noisy sounds and vibrations are added to the already alarming and discomforting noisy level. Noise is detrimental to our spiritual growth, and it is a nuisance to people’s health.
   


6. Avoid The Habit Of Worrying.
   Do not allow the cares and worries of every day life to disorganize your spirit, heart or mind. Worry does not solve problems. Rather, it worsens health condition.
   

1. Watching television from morning till night.
2. Watching streams of videos films all through the night.
3. Humanity are expected to develop in spirit and in truth through silence, meditation, calmness, etc. But, the ever changing scenarios on the television and video deprive people such an important spiritual development. The result is that everyday, people are spiritually straying away from God without knowing it.
4. From day to day, people become more and more of spiritual dwarfs instead of becoming spiritual giants.
5. Noisy vibrations, booming sounds and bombarding music. The loud speakers were never made for everyday use. Today, the video and music shops use loud speakers to disorganize spiritual harmony within the environment, and thereby prevent people from growing in spirit, without people knowing it.
