Inner Horn, Inner Peace
Daniel 8:25 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Daniel 8 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Daniel 8:25 describes a ruler whose craft and self-exaltation prosper, who destroys many under the guise of peace, and who stands against the Prince of princes but is broken without hand. Spiritually, this is the ego's inner policy—an outward vitality that collapses when the I AM within you is acknowledged as the true ruler.
Neville's Inner Vision
Imagine the 'little horn' as a state of consciousness—the ego's policy of cleverness and self-importance, a mental habit that feels powerful while masking fear. When this attitude takes the stage, it magnifies itself in the heart and channels energy into craft that appears to prosper. It cloaks itself in peace, but that peace is a subtle weapon meant to quiet others and to secure its own position, not harmony. The line about standing against the Prince of princes is an inner rebellion against your highest Self—the I AM within you that knows you are one with divine reality. Yet the horn has no true substance; it thrives on separation and the belief that you are apart from the Source. The prophecy ends with the horn broken without hand—an inner collapse when you awaken to your true state. Your world bends to the assumption you hold in consciousness; thus, to turn the wheel, replace the horn's claim with the reality of I AM, and the imagined power dissolves.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly, breathe, and revise the scene by declaring I AM the I AM, the Power behind all policy. Feel the calm of alignment and imagine the desired outcome as already real.
