Blessing Over Vengeance Within
1 Peter 3:9-11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Peter 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Peter urges not to repay evil with evil, but to bless, for you are called to inherit a blessing; guard your speech, eschew evil, and seek peace so your days are good.
Neville's Inner Vision
Beloved, the scripture does not speak of changing others, but awakening the I AM within. When you refuse to render evil for evil, you are training your consciousness to entertain a higher vibration—the blessing you are called to inherit. The tongue becomes a pen of light, not a weapon; guile and railing dissolve as you identify with the indwelling I AM that loves life and seeks what is true and good. To love life and see good days is a decision you rehearse in imagination: you refrain from negative speech, you eschew evil, and you do good because your inner state already knows peace. In this light, 'pursue peace' is not a command to chase after outcomes, but a movement of awareness that settles into your being. The world outside merely reflects the inner state you persist in. So assume the feeling of being blessed, and let that belief reform your relationships, your speech, and your days.
Practice This Now
Sit quietly, imagine the I AM you are, and bless the person who has wronged you; mentally say, 'I bless you, I release judgment.' Then feel the calm certainty that your days are already good.
