Will Of God Within 1 Peter 4:2

1 Peter 4:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Peter 4 in context

Scripture Focus

2That he no longer should live the rest of his time in the flesh to the lusts of men, but to the will of God.
1 Peter 4:2

Biblical Context

The verse urges one to stop living by the lusts of the flesh and devote the rest of life to the will of God.

Neville's Inner Vision

Consider that the 'flesh' and its lusts are not external temptations but states of consciousness you wear. To live the will of God is to occupy a mental space where the I AM—your pure awareness—already agrees with divine purposes. When you say 'no longer to live... the lusts of men, but to the will of God,' you are not renouncing energy, you are choosing a higher alignment in imagination. The moment you accept a new impression of yourself—that you are the very instrument of God’s intention—you begin to feel a shift in your desires. The inner movements of fear, craving, or pride recede as you settle into the assumption that the will of God is your real motive, your continuous vibration. This is not a command from without but a re-declaration from within: you are now awake to a deeper pattern governing your life. As you persist in this inner alignment, your outer responses soften and your experiences reflect the new will you have assumed. You are not changing others or conditions; you are changing your state of consciousness, and reality follows.

Practice This Now

Assume the feeling 'I am the will of God now' and hold it for several minutes. When lustful thoughts arise, revise them by returning to that assumed state until it feels real.
