Inner Election: Faith, Hope, Love

1 Thessalonians 1:3-4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Thessalonians 1 in context

Scripture Focus

3Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;
4Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
1 Thessalonians 1:3-4

Biblical Context

The passage honors their ceaseless faith, loving labor, and patient hope. It also affirms their election as God's beloved.

Neville's Inner Vision

Remember that in Neville’s lesson, faith is a state of consciousness you inhabit, not a coin you toss. The words 'work of faith, labor of love, patience of hope' describe inner habits you cultivate through imagination and steady attention. The phrase 'in the sight of God and our Father' points to the one always present in you—the I AM—watching and recognizing your inner movements. Your 'election of God' is not a distant decree but the realization that you are already chosen by the divine self you identify as, the I AM within. When you stop seeking approval outside and stand in the certainty of that inner choice, the outer life tends to mirror the inner state: you endure with calm, act with love, and trust the unseen timing. The triad forms a victorious orientation that steadies your thoughts, purifies desire, and invites grace to flow. Through this inner reinterpretation, your present circumstances reveal the kingdom you already inhabit, arising as your consciousness shifts to the reality you affirm, here and now.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, assume you are already the one who works faith, labors in love, and endures in hope. Let that inner state color your day and rest in the certainty that you are the election of God in consciousness.
