Neville Goddard on 2 Corinthians 6:7-10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read 2 Corinthians 6 in context

Scripture Focus

7By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left,

8By honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report: as deceivers, and yet true;

9As unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed;

10As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing all things.

2 Corinthians 6:7-10

Biblical Context

Paul speaks of enduring trials with truth and power, wearing the armor of righteousness. He shows paradox: outward appearances of lack or attack, yet inward reality of life, abundance, and fearless joy.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture your life as the field where the word of truth has power, and the spirit of God furnishes you with righteousness as real as your hands. The seeming opposites—honor and dishonor, deceit and truth—are not enemies, but signs of your inner state. When you assume the consistent presence of the I AM, that armor becomes your natural condition, not a pose. Dying and being chastened are simply symbolic of old patterns dissolving; living is the ever-present manifestation of your divine nature. Sorrow may visit, yet you rejoice because you know you possess all things in God. Your condition of poverty or wealth is a mirror of your current inner conviction; change the conviction, and the outer world shifts accordingly. Trust that you have been made rich by the Spirit, and your outer reports bow to your inner certainty. By the word of truth and the power of God, you walk as one known to God, unseen by the crowd, yet the truth you bear makes you visible.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and affirm, 'I am the I AM, rich in every blessing.' Dwell in that state until the sense of lack dissolves and the world aligns with your inner truth.
