Inner Prophecy Awakening
1 Samuel 19:23-24 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Samuel 19 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
In 1 Samuel 19:23-24, Saul travels to Naioth and the Spirit of God comes upon him, leading him to prophesy; he strips off his clothes and lies naked, signaling a radical break with ego before Samuel, provoking the question whether Saul belongs among the prophets.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this pivot, the inner Saul steps into the inner Ramah where God’s Spirit is already present. The outer journey mirrors an inward arrival: when the Spirit of God rests upon him, consciousness expands beyond ordinary self-identity and revelations spill forth as prophecy. The stripping of clothes and the naked lay-down are symbolic acts of ego-shedding, a surrender to the I AM that knows no defenses. What you witness publicly—Saul prophesying before Samuel—is the inner psychology made visible: a man whose inner state has shifted so profoundly that his outward acts wear a prophetic robe rather than a royal cloak. The question, Is Saul also among the prophets? reads as a description of your own life when you reinterpret your self-image; others notice the change because you have become a different level of awareness, a new mode of feeling and acting that aligns with the divine. This is not miracle in isolation but the natural result of a consciousness intentionally held in the Spirit, where imagination becomes reality and the true kingdom begins within.
Practice This Now
Sit in stillness, declare I am the I AM, and imagine the Spirit enveloping you; see yourself shedding ego and prophesying truth from your inner Samuel-like witness, feeling the presence as real.
