The Inner Word Arrives Now
2 Kings 20:4 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Kings 20 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse shows the word of the LORD coming to Isaiah in the moment before he leaves the court, signaling that divine guidance can arrive in the present. It conveys that prophecy and guidance are available here and now, not only through distant signs or ritual.
Neville's Inner Vision
Within the scripture, the 'word of the LORD' is not a distant command but an inner realization coming to Isaiah in the exact moment of transition in the middle court. The middle court symbolizes the inner liminal space between outward action and inward knowing. God says 'the word of the LORD came to him'—that is, the I AM in you speaks when you are still enough to listen. The emphasis is on immediacy: the divine message arrives not after you finish a ritual but in the now, whenever your heart is attentive. This is the foundational Neville principle: you are the place where God speaks; your state of consciousness is the vessel through which prophecy unfolds. When you accept this, every moment becomes a doorway to a new decree—healing, direction, promise. To apply: acknowledge I AM as present tense speaker; assume you are hearing a direct instruction; revise any sense of waiting for a sign; feel the truth of the message as already given.
Practice This Now
Assume you have heard the word now and feel it as real; revise any sense of delay; trust that the I AM is speaking within your consciousness in this moment.
