Inward Resurrection: David to Christ

Acts 13:36-37 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Acts 13 in context

Scripture Focus

36For David, after he had served his own generation by the will of God, fell on sleep, and was laid unto his fathers, and saw corruption:
37But he, whom God raised again, saw no corruption.
Acts 13:36-37

Biblical Context

David stands for a consciousness that serves God but ends in decay. The risen Christ within is an incorruptible life that endures.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within this brief record, the apostle names a life that begins in an inner decision: David serves his generation by the will of God, then sleeps. The Gospel of your inner drama teaches that death and corruption are not external facts but a phase of your own consciousness. When you awaken to the truth that God raised Jesus, not in a distant heaven but in your own awareness, you recognize the inner person that cannot decay. David's end is the last breath of a limited self; the 'rise' is the moment you affirm that your true nature is incorruptible. The word 'raised' is not a historical event happening to someone else; it is the moment your dominant assumption shifts from mortality to immortality, from law to grace, from fear to faith. You do not cling to a past state but dwell in the feeling of the risen Christ here and now. To practice is to assume the end: see yourself already whole and incorruptible, and let your present thoughts prove it through steady, unshakable trust in the will of God within.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, take a breath, and assume the end you desire: you are the incorruptible life already. Repeat: 'I am raised in incorruption; the old self dies and is laid to rest in the will of God within me.'
