Awakened Spirit, Inner Kingship
1 Samuel 11:5-6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Samuel 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Saul hears tidings about Jabesh, and the Spirit of God comes upon him, stirring his anger.
Neville's Inner Vision
Saul’s outward news is the trigger that wakes the inner king. The field and the herd symbolize quiet, untested consciousness, and the tidings about Jabesh awaken the I AM within. When this awareness receives a meaningful report, the Spirit of God rises inside and anger becomes energy—an intense, constructive flame that moves the mind toward action. It is not a punitive emotion but the alchemical fire by which inner potential is converted into decisive direction. In Neville’s sense, you do not beseech God to come; you awaken to the truth that the I AM already is present, and news—good or alarming— is a message to realize more fully who you are. The presence of God is the living awareness that shifts you from passive witness to active co-creator, aligning impulse with a higher purpose. Saul’s moment shows that authority follows when you let the Spirit speak through you, transforming fear into resolve, division into unity, and possibility into concrete plans. Your king is the I AM, visible as you act in harmony with the good you envision for all.
Practice This Now
Imaginatively, assume you already are the I AM who acts; when tidings reach you, feel that inner Spirit rise and respond with decisive calm. Practice by repeating, 'I AM awake and in charge' until it feels real.
