Silence Before Vision

Daniel 10:15-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Daniel 10 in context

Scripture Focus

15And when he had spoken such words unto me, I set my face toward the ground, and I became dumb.
16And, behold, one like the similitude of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spake, and said unto him that stood before me, O my lord, by the vision my sorrows are turned upon me, and I have retained no strength.
17For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, straightway there remained no strength in me, neither is there breath left in me.
Daniel 10:15-17

Biblical Context

Daniel 10:15-17 portrays the inner man prostrating, becoming dumb, and then touched by a vision that awakens speech. In the raw moment, strength and breath seem stripped away, hinting that true power comes from the higher I AM.

Neville's Inner Vision

Daniel's scene is a mirror of your own consciousness. The act of setting the face toward the ground is a renunciation of the old self, a surrender to the higher idea that you are more than form. When the lips are touched by the similitude of the sons of men, a new speech awakens—the voice of the vision moving through you rather than from fear or effort. The sorrow that overwhelms you is the old self reeling before a truth it cannot own; strength and breath disappear as you yield to a higher order. Yet this appearing weakness is not failure but the ignition of power: you are being aligned with the I AM, the unchanging awareness that makes all manifest. The question, 'how can the servant talk with this lord?' dissolves as you remember you are one with the vision. If you dwell in that unity and revise from the crown of your head to your heart, you will speak with the authority of the higher self, not the old ego, and your world will bend to your stated reality.

Practice This Now

Sit quietly, close your eyes, and adopt the I AM as your only speaker. Assume you are already delivering the vision through your lips, and feel strength returning as you repeat, 'I speak from the vision now.'
