The Inner Election Of God

1 Thessalonians 1:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 1 Thessalonians 1 in context

Scripture Focus

4Knowing, brethren beloved, your election of God.
1 Thessalonians 1:4

Biblical Context

The verse speaks to believers knowing they are elected by God, emphasizing a trusted, intimate relationship rather than external works.

Neville's Inner Vision

In the teaching of 1 Thessalonians 1:4, the 'election of God' is not a distant decree but a present state of consciousness. You are not waiting to be chosen; you are already chosen in the I AM, the awareness that you are beloved by God. Providence and guidance flow from this inner recognition; the events of your life unfold as you imagine and align with divine intention. The path of salvation and grace becomes a daily realization: you awaken to your true identity as the elect, not by outward merit but by inner acceptance of your God-consciousness. Practice entails revising any sense of separation, affirming, 'I am the elect of God now,' and feeling the reality of that truth as your constant companion. As you persist, the outer world reflects the inner election, and life becomes a demonstration of divine affection and purposeful direction.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and repeat, with feeling, 'I am the elect of God now.' Let the sense of being beloved and guided fill your chest; sit for a few minutes, revising any lack with this truth until it feels real.
