Inner Reception Of Spirit
Acts 19:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 19 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Paul asks if they received the Holy Ghost since they believed; they reply they had not even heard of the Holy Ghost.
Neville's Inner Vision
Acts 19:2 invites us to notice what belief has not yet awakened: the inner recognition of the Holy Ghost as the I AM within. In Neville Goddard's view, the Holy Ghost is not a distant fact but the living awareness of God in you now; the question reveals a state of belief without felt consciousness. When you identify as consciousness rather than as a body or a collection of doctrines, you realize you have not 'received' Spirit until you assume the feeling of that reality. The moment you decide, 'I have received the Holy Ghost,' you shift from lack to the felt presence of God within. The inner miracle is not a future event but a changed state of awareness, a aligning with the I AM that governs you. Practice turning belief into living consciousness by repeatedly re-creating the sense of spirit now, in this present moment, until it feels undeniable.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and declare, 'I have received the Holy Ghost now.' Feel the I AM within as a warm, quiet presence filling you.
