I Am Lord Within: Awakening Your Minister

Acts 26:15-16 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Acts 26 in context

Scripture Focus

15And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.
16But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee;
Acts 26:15-16

Biblical Context

Acts 26:15–16 presents Paul’s encounter with Jesus, who identifies Himself as the Lord and commissions him to rise and become a minister and witness to both what he has seen and what will be revealed.

Neville's Inner Vision

Picture the scene as a moment your own consciousness is asking, 'Who art thou, Lord?' In Neville’s terms, the I AM answers: I am Jesus whom thou persecutest — I am the very idea by which you have measured your life and misread your trials. The persecution is not outer hostility but the inner resistance to change, the old self clinging to a limited story. When he says, 'rise, and stand upon thy feet,' the inner directive rings clear: assume full footing in awareness, don't cower before the next revelation. The appearing is for a purpose: to make thee a minister and a witness of these things seen, and of those things which I will appear unto thee. You are called not to travel a distant road but to witness from within, to align your thoughts, feelings, and actions with the perception you now hold. As you accept this call, your being becomes the stage where future appearances unfold, and your world begins to reflect the minister you have accepted as true.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes, breathe, and declare: I am the minister and witness to the visions I have seen and will yet see. Sit with that certainty for a moment, revise any doubt into aliveness.
