The Fourth in the Fire

Daniel 3:24-25 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Daniel 3 in context

Scripture Focus

24Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.
25He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.
Daniel 3:24-25

Biblical Context

Three men are cast into the fiery furnace, yet Nebuchadnezzar sees four men walking unharmed. The fourth resembles the Son of God, signaling a divine presence within the trial.

Neville's Inner Vision

Daniel 3:24-25 is not a history lesson about three companions burned in a flame, but a vivid illustration of your inner state. The furnace is the crucible of circumstance, and the three men bound within it symbolize the old alignments of fear, resistance, and the sense of separation from the I AM. Yet the record declares that a fourth man appears, unbound and walking in the fire, and that this figure is like the Son of God—a clear symbol that your true self, the eternal I AM, is present within you as awareness. When you read this, you are being shown that your consciousness, not your surroundings, determines what happens externally. The unhurt condition is not a miracle of outside power; it is your inner perception witnessing itself as safe, intact, and guided. If you entertain the vision of the Fourth, you align your state with its reality; the fire ceases to threaten and becomes a symbol of transformation. Trust in Providence: the inner presence is always walking with you, even through fire, and your outer world will reflect that inner alignment.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: In a quiet moment, assume the feeling of the I AM presence walking beside you in your current challenge; picture the Fourth within you unbound and moving through the situation unhurt.
