Inner Repentance and Obedience

1 Samuel 15:11 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Samuel 15 in context

Scripture Focus

11It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night.
1 Samuel 15:11

Biblical Context

God regrets making Saul king because Saul turned away from Him and did not obey His commands; Samuel grieves and prays all night.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's posture, It repenteth me is not a historical lament but a vivid depiction of your inner state shifting. Saul embodies a belief in power and authority outside the I AM, a ruler who does not follow internal guidance. When you entertain the notion of an external king governing your life, you drift from following the inner lead and fail to perform the inner commands written within. The grief of Samuel and his night-long prayer symbolize your heightened awareness of misalignment and your inner longing to return to alignment with divine instruction. The remedy is inner revision, not seeking another external change: affirm that you are already governed by the inner law, the commands within you. As you assume the truth that you are the I AM, you cease seeking to appease an outer king and instead feel the inner governor guiding every thought and deed. This awakening—seeing repentance as a return to inner obedience—transforms regret into conscious alignment with your true source.

Practice This Now

Impose a rapid revision: assume you are already led by the inner command. Close your eyes, repeat 'I am guided by the inner law,' and feel-it-real that obedience to the inner command is your present reality.
