Whispers of the Inner Word
1 Kings 17:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Biblical Context
1 Kings 17:8 records the moment the LORD's word comes to the prophet, signaling a fresh inward direction. The verse invites us to recognize divine guidance as an inner communication available to consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Elijah, the WORD from the LORD is not a distant command but the I AM speaking within your own mind. When 'Thus saith the LORD' comes, it is a reminder that every instruction begins as a state of consciousness you already inhabit. The word is not out there; it is awakened in you and through you, inviting a revision of what you firmly accept about yourself and your world. In Neville's light, this moment teaches that your present state is the vessel into which the word can be born; your imagination then breathes life into that word by treating it as here and now. The I AM behind the words is the unchanging self, the abundant presence that does not wait for future events but makes them possible by your interior alignment. If you hear it as a call to action, you are being reminded of the power you possess to choose the feeling that would accompany its fulfillment. Listen, assume the state, and you become the answer to your own prayer, moving in harmony with the inner commission that already resides in you.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Sit quietly and hear the word within as the I AM speaking to you now. Revise your state to match that word, and feel it real as though the guidance has already taken form.
