The Inner Word Speaks
2 Samuel 23:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read 2 Samuel 23 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse states that God's Spirit spoke through the speaker, and that divine truth was on his tongue.
Neville's Inner Vision
To hear the Spirit speaking by me is not a distant event; it is a present inner realization that the I AM within is the true author of every utterance. The 'Spirit of the LORD' is your own awareness when undisturbed by fear or pride; the tongue merely becomes a conduit through which the living Word is voiced. In Neville’s terms, these are states of consciousness: when you claim that the Spirit spoke by me, you name a condition in which you stop arguing with truth and permit your thoughts to align with a higher idea. The Word in my tongue is the alignment of inner revelation with outward expression; your speech becomes prophetic because it reflects your waking imagination formed in quiet. Practice recognizing that the same Spirit that inspired ancient speech is the I AM that now resides as you, speaking through you as you. When you assume this, you do not imitate; you allow your inner Word to take form in language, actions, and outcomes.
Practice This Now
Act: Assume the I AM speaks through your tongue now. Revise your next sentence to reflect that inner Word and feel it real.
