Inner Cleansing and Calling
Acts 11:9-10 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 11 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Heaven declares that what God has cleansed should not be called common. The vision repeats three times, guiding the consciousness to ascend to a higher state.
Neville's Inner Vision
Viewed through the living I AM, this text is a ruling about your inner state. The voice from heaven is the whisper of your own awareness announcing that the 'cleansing' God performs is not external reform but a redefinition of what you call yourself. When you believe you are common, you limit your birthright; when you awaken to what God has cleansed, you cease to label yourself as ordinary. The threefold repetition is not a historical tally but the mind’s insistence, a counter to doubt, until you are drawn up into heaven—the rich, quiet realm of certainty. You are asked to align your self-image with the truth that every perceived 'unclean' trait is already made clean in the divine image, enabling you to enter new fields of witness and grace. The inner shift precedes any outward result; the world follows the consciousness that believes it is cleansed and no longer common.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, and softly affirm, 'What God has cleansed, I call not common' until the feeling sits in your bones. Then imagine yourself ascending into a luminous heaven of certainty, letting this new self-image guide your daily actions.
