I Am Over Saul's Offering
1 Samuel 13:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Samuel 13 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Saul fears Philistine attack and acts before seeking the LORD, offering a burnt offering in lieu of true waiting. The text shows how fear masquerades as duty, while obedient trust asks for inner alignment with the I AM.
Neville's Inner Vision
Saul’s act reveals the inner dynamics of your own mind. The Philistines are not a tribe at the border, but the fear-thought pressing upon your Gilgal—the instant you decide and move without consulting the LORD within. When he says I forced myself, the I AM watches the ego’s urgency as if it were Law. The true obedience is not a burnt offering, but an inner alignment with the I AM, a cool, confident acceptance that the situation is already resolved in consciousness. The event unfolds according to your state; change the state, and the scene itself shifts. Therefore, do not seek to appease the outer storm by ritual, but revise the assumption that you must act from fear. Close your eyes, feel the I AM as your constant presence, and declare: I am at peace, I am guided, the situation is right now under divine awareness. Imagination is your tool; rehearse the surrender, the quiet trust, and let the inner affirmation generate the outer response.
Practice This Now
Practice: Sit still and revise the scene, assuming the feeling of the wish fulfilled—'I am in perfect alignment with the I AM; fear is dissolved.' Feel that peace for 60–90 seconds, and let the mind rest in that consciousness.
