Ananias Inner Sight Awakening

Acts 22:12-13 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Acts 22 in context

Scripture Focus

12And one Ananias, a devout man according to the law, having a good report of all the Jews which dwelt there,
13Came unto me, and stood, and said unto me, Brother Saul, receive thy sight. And the same hour I looked up upon him.
Acts 22:12-13

Biblical Context

Ananias, a devout man according to the law, comes to Saul, lays hands, and tells him to receive sight. In that moment, Saul looks up and his sight is restored.

Neville's Inner Vision

Acts 22:12-13 becomes a teaching about inner awakening. Saul’s blindness represents a state of unseeing in the mind; Ananias is the inner messenger, the disciplined life within that speaks in alignment with the I AM. The reference to the law and the good report of the Jews shows how social conditioning and moral habit function as the outer shell of our consciousness. When the inner messenger speaks to Saul and tells him to receive sight, the response is immediate: the I AM within you answers, and the old self looks up with new perception. The healing is not a remote miracle but the mind's shift from fear or disbelief to the certainty of its own awareness. Faith here is trust in the inner law, a willingness to accept the instruction of the inner guide. The moment of looking up marks the instant your sense of limitation bows to the true vision that you are, in truth, the I AM and always aware. Thus the event becomes a parable of the inner restoration: you revise your self-image and let your inner sight arise as the natural state of being.

Practice This Now

Practice: Sit in quiet and assume the state I am seeing now. Picture the inner Ananias approaching, laying hands, and the command to receive sight; feel the old beliefs dissolve as inner vision dawns.
