Neville Goddard on Acts 3:22-26 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Acts 3 in context

Scripture Focus

22For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.

23And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.

24Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.

25Ye are the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.

26Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

Acts 3:22-26

Biblical Context

Peter cites Moses’ prophecy of a coming prophet and explains that those who don’t hear him are cut off; you, as descendants of the prophets and the Abrahamic covenant, are blessed in turning away from iniquities through Jesus, raised to bless you.

Neville's Inner Vision

This passage is not a past event but a map of your inner life. The 'prophet' Moses speaks of is the state of consciousness you must inhabit; to hear him is to yield your mind to a higher command and allow your thoughts to move in harmony with that command. When you align with the inner voice, the old self—fear, limitation, separation—recedes as the blessing flows. You are the children of the prophets, heirs to the covenant with Abraham, meaning your inner lineage carries a seed that blesses all aspects of your life. Jesus, raised up, represents your own I AM—an awakening presence that blesses you by turning you away from iniquities, not through judgment but through the restoration of belief. As you hold this awareness, the outer world becomes a mirror of your inward turning, and your life reorganizes to reflect the truth you choose to hear. The prophecy becomes your lived reality when you revise your inner script and hear the voice that liberates you from old patterns.

Practice This Now

Practice: Close your eyes, assume you hear the inner prophet speaking to you now, and feel the turning away from old limitations as the blessing of your true I AM floods your awareness. Feel it real by dwelling in that sensation for a moment and notice the shift in your thoughts.
