Inner Courtroom of Awareness
Acts 22:30 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Acts 22 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
On the next day, the commander frees Paul from his chains and directs the council to appear before him. Paul is brought forward to be questioned by the Jewish leadership.
Neville's Inner Vision
Imagine the scene as your own inner courtroom. The Sanhedrin are not distant men, but the crowd of thoughts and judgments that rise within you, demanding proof and alignment. When the commander loosens Paul’s bonds, he is announcing a shift in your state of consciousness: you have decided to know the certainty of your true being, and you release the imagined restraints of fear, lack, and doubt. The I AM—the great awareness you embody—steps forth to present you before the tribunal, not to be condemned by it, but to show that those judgments exist to reveal and refine your truth. The questions, the charges, and the concern of the council become tests of your inner faith. You answer from the knowledge that what is true within becomes true without. This is the spiritual law: an inner certainty manifests as outer circumstance when you refuse to be defined by the bonds of limitation.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe, and assume you are already free. Silently declare, 'I am free now; the bonds are loosened by my inner certainty.' Visualize the inner council dissolving into light as you stand in your own power.
