Thessalonians Inner Prayer Practice
1 Thessalonians 3:10-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 1 Thessalonians 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Paul petitions tirelessly for the believers, asks God to direct his approach to them, and desires their love to increase; he wants their hearts established in holiness for Christ's coming.
Neville's Inner Vision
Think of this text as a map of your own inner states. Night and day praying exceedingly is the persistent movement of your I AM toward the awareness of your wholeness, seeking to see your face, the image you carry of your fulfilled state, in which faith is complete. When Paul asks to perfect that which is lacking in their faith, he is pointing to your own revision of lack into presence, to the inner correction by which your attention blends with the already real reality of your being. God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you translates to the truth that your higher self redirects your circumstances when you assume the feeling of completion and trust, not doubt. The Lord make you to increase and abound in love becomes the inner acceleration of your heart toward all, dissolving separation as you recognize that love is your essential function. Finally, establish your hearts unblameable in holiness is the fortification of your consciousness you are found in holiness the moment you refuse to judge your experience as separate from God, awaiting the coming of Christ as the realization that you already are that arrival.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit in quiet and, as you breathe, assume you already possess the faith and love described; see your heart steadied in holiness; declare mentally that you are the I AM directing your life toward love and unity until it feels real.
