Inner Liberty in the Spirit
2 Corinthians 3:17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Corinthians 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse states that the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit is, freedom is found within. Liberty arises as a shift in consciousness, not in external conditions.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the Neville ear, 'the Lord' is the I AM within you, and 'that Spirit' is your own awareness functioning as God. Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty, because when you acknowledge that your inner awareness is the Spirit, you are no longer bound by fear, limitation, or appearances. Liberty is not a future event but a present recalibration of what you accept as real. The Spirit within dissolves resistance by presenting you with a compatible state of consciousness—a way of living that matches freedom. The mind that believes in separation remains in bondage; the mind that remembers itself as the Spirit lives in liberty. Your job is to assume the feeling and the seen-outcome as already yours: peace, abundance, courage, and creative power radiate from your inner presence. In this sense, deliverance is a quiet restoration of your oneness with the Source, a return to the awareness that God, not circumstance, is king in you.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare, 'The Lord is the Spirit within me; I am free now.' Then revise a current situation by feeling the liberty as already present.
