First Day Prosperity Practice

1 Corinthians 16:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Corinthians 16 in context

Scripture Focus

1Now concerning the collection for the saints, as I have given order to the churches of Galatia, even so do ye.
2Upon the first day of the week let every one of you lay by him in store, as God hath prospered him, that there be no gatherings when I come.
1 Corinthians 16:1-2

Biblical Context

Paul instructs churches to arrange a weekly collection for the saints, letting each lay by in store on the first day of the week according to how God has prospered him, so there will be no gathering when he comes.

Neville's Inner Vision

Take that instruction as a map of inner provision. The outward collection is but the symbol of an inward habit: on the first day of the week, you align your inner accounts with the truth that you are prospered by a boundless Source. When you imagine your life as consciousness, 'the saints' become the aspects of your own being to bless and sustain through your attention. To lay by in store is to make space for abundance in your mind, to honor the flow rather than the fear of shortage. If you feel drawn to revise a lackful belief, revise it now: you do not allocate from scarcity but from a given abundance that God hath prospered you in. Your assumption creates the conditions—the means appear as you hold the vision of prosperity and release your energy in a measured, grateful way. The timing—the first day—is not a calendar rule but an inner cue to begin anew each week, a practice that aligns your consciousness with Providence and renders gatherings unnecessary because you have already supplied the needs in imagination.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume you have already laid by a portion of your prosperity on your inner store. Feel gratitude and abundance as the feeling-it-real.
