Inner Sustenance for Forty Days
1 Kings 19:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Kings 19 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Elijah rises, eats, and travels forty days and nights toward Horeb. The verse reveals that nourishment comes from inner provision, shaping outward movement.
Neville's Inner Vision
In the Neville Goddard register, the scene is not a history of a man but a drama of consciousness. The meat that feeds him is the conviction that the I AM is his supply; when he rises and eats, he is aligning with a state of assurance. The forty days and nights are not a timetable but the length of an accumulated inner state that sustains action until it becomes natural. Going to Horeb, the mount of God, is going to the seat of awareness where God's presence is felt as inner reality, not distant event. Providence shows up as the reliability of your inner assumption. Trust becomes a habit, and the journey is the demonstration of faith: you are already where you hope to be; the energy of your belief sustains you. Practice the simple shift: identify with the assurance that you are supplied; revise any sense of lack; feel the power as if the journey is already taken.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume you are nourished by inner food. Feel it real and move forward, as if you have already reached the mount of God.
