Inner Affection Through Obedience
2 Corinthians 7:15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Corinthians 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The passage says the inner teacher’s affection toward you grows as you remember the obedience you showed. It recalls how you received his guidance with reverent awe.
Neville's Inner Vision
I am the I AM within you, the living whisper you call God, and I notice when you remember obedience to the inner word. Your obedience draws forth my inward affection, not as punishment but as warmth released into your thoughts and feelings. When you align with the inner guide and let your attention rest on that truth, you open the space where imagination begins to work. The fear and trembling you once wore are the reverence that true seekers feel before a living law; they are not resistance but surrender to the one command that holds all things in order. Therefore, your present state of faith—your willing receptivity to the inner cue—becomes the bridge by which I come near. The more faithfully you act from that inner call, the more abundant my affection manifests in your experience, shaping perception, mood, and circumstance from within. Remember: the outer world mirrors the inner discipline; your inner obedience is the portal through which affection flows.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes, breathe, and silently say, 'I have obeyed the inner word; the I AM now draws me into its affectionate presence.' Then feel a warm glow expanding in your chest as you dwell in that alignment.
