Milk of the Word Within
1 Peter 2:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Peter 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Peter speaks to believers as newborn babes who must crave the sincere milk of the word in order to grow. The nourishment is not physical but a state of attentiveness and trust in the truth you now carry.
Neville's Inner Vision
See the verse as an invitation to shift your inner state. The 'newborn babes' are your current states of consciousness awakening to truth. The 'milk' is the living Word you already carry within as I AM. When you desire it, you aren't chasing something outside; you are choosing to feed on the truth of your own consciousness. Growth 'thereby' means your awareness expands to behold more of who you truly are. Practice by revising: affirm that you are now nourished by the Word, that you are the Word in expression, and feel it real. Let that feeling settle into every breath. As you linger in that state, perceptions align with this truth and your life mirrors your inner growth.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and repeat: 'I am nourished by the Word.' Hold that assumption for a minute, then observe any soft felt sense of growth and calm.
