Inner Declaration Of The I Am
1 Kings 18:39 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 18 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse shows the people falling on their faces and declaring that the LORD is God after a demonstration of divine power. It signals a collective turning toward true worship.
Neville's Inner Vision
Observe that the scene is not merely an ancient drama; it is a picture of your inner state. The 'God' revealed is the I AM acknowledged as the governing reality in consciousness. When the mind witnesses a demonstration and people fall into reverent acknowledgment, it is your own recognition of the I AM declaring 'God is God'—and nothing else. In Neville’s terms, the inner conviction of the I AM replaces former images with truth that you are that I AM. The crowd’s confession is your own confession achievable through imagination and faith: you stop worshiping a distant power and begin worshiping the one Power within. Therefore, do not seek God outside; re-identify yourself with the I AM as the sole ruler of experience. Hold that state and persist in the feeling of its reality until it colors every perception and event.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes, repeat silently, 'The LORD is my God,' and feel the certainty as if it already is. Let that I AM-state govern your sense impressions for the next hour.
