Rejoicing in Inner Confidence
2 Corinthians 7:16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Corinthians 7 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse expresses a joy-filled confidence in the Corinthians, asserting the speaker’s inner trust in them in all matters.
Neville's Inner Vision
Consider the line as a declaration of your inner state. I AM rejoices in the conviction that confidence operates in every area of life. The 'you' is not a distant other but the image I hold in consciousness of those I relate with. By choosing to rejoice, I am choosing to dwell in the assumption that trust, truthfulness, and reliable response are already present within the field of awareness. This is not about flattering others but aligning with the truth that imagination creates reality. When I hold this inner image and feel its truth—steady, loving, and true—my awareness emits a vibration that invites corresponding expressions in the world. Confidence becomes a universal attitude, nourishing hope and a future that reflects the steadfastness of my inner state. In this light, the verse becomes a map: confidence is born of inner knowing, not of external proof, and will be mirrored back to me as I continue to inhabit the I AM in me.
Practice This Now
Practice: Sit quietly, close your eyes and imagine a scene where you feel unwavering confidence in someone. Repeat the present-tense affirmation 'I am confident in you in all things,' and breathe the feeling of trust into your chest until it becomes your habitual state.
