Honoring the I Am Within
1 Samuel 2:29-30 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Samuel 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
God laments that sacrifices are despised when the heart honors human honors more than the divine; those who honor the Lord are exalted, while those who despise Him are slighted.
Neville's Inner Vision
Interpret this not as a history of indignation on a distant altar, but as a map of consciousness. The 'sacrifice' you offer is your attention, your time, your loyalty. If you place the 'sons' of your personality—your fear, your ego, your outward status—above the I AM within, you impoverish your inner temple and invite lightness rather than fullness. The Lord's declaration that your house should walk before Him forever is a reminder that your inner state can endure only as you keep faith with the inner law. Those who honor the I AM are honored by the life that follows; those who despise Him are lightly esteemed in experience because their thoughts and beliefs are out of order. Thus the remedy is not to change the externals but to shift the center of gravity. Make the assumption now: I am the I AM, and I honor that Presence above all else. Feel the warmth, the certainty, the quiet power of alignment, and observe your world bending to reflect that inner allegiance.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: for five minutes, assume the inner I AM governs your life and feel its honor saturating your chest; revise any belief that external ritual is the source of blessing.
