Ready by Inner Alignment

2 Corinthians 9:3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read 2 Corinthians 9 in context

Scripture Focus

3Yet have I sent the brethren, lest our boasting of you should be in vain in this behalf; that, as I said, ye may be ready:
2 Corinthians 9:3

Biblical Context

Paul sends the brethren so his boasting of the Corinthians won’t be in vain, keeping them ready. The verse shows that outer readiness flows from an inner state that is already prepared.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within Neville's lens, the 'brethren' are inner messengers of consciousness—your steadfast I AM and the images you hold. The warning against vain boasting is a reminder to align belief with fact: to claim readiness now, not hope for it later. Paul dispatches these emissaries to calibrate the mind, so the proclamation about the Corinthians rests on a living inner certainty. When you imagine yourself already prepared, you are not conjuring vanity but establishing a present state that makes the future possible. Readiness becomes a persevering discipline of consciousness, not a desperate wish. The future then witnesses your present I AM as its source; the act of sending forth the brethren mirrors the righteous sending of your inner faculties to secure the scene you intend to realize. Endurance arises simply from remaining attached to the truth of your claim, allowing the outer scene to reflect what your inner assumption has already authored. Thus the Corinthians' readiness is the inner witness that transforms intention into demonstration.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, and assume, 'I am ready now.' Then picture the inner brethren arriving, delivering the message that the situation is prepared, and feel the relief and confidence flooding your chest.
