Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner light of Neville Goddard, Acts 4:22 speaks not of a distant event but of a shift in consciousness. The man’s age—over forty—symbolizes a fixed, long-standing pattern of limitation in body or habit, now altered by the I AM presence within. The miracle is not something happening to an external object, but the inner realization of wholeness, a realization you can live into. When you acknowledge that you are the I AM—the awareness shaping your world—you awaken the same healing force that produced the demonstration described. The outer sign, the healing, follows the inner update: a state of consciousness that you have assumed into being, not a condition waiting to change first in the body. Therefore, embrace the end you seek: you are already healed in imagination. Maintain steady faith in that inward truth, and allow the body to reflect your revived state. Trust the inner movement; let the appearance of healing come as evidence of your realized state.

Practice This Now

Practice: close your eyes and declare, I am healed now; feel the wholeness as a living reality. Stay with that sensation for a few minutes, then proceed through your day in the certainty of your restored state.
