Inner Grace Beyond Works
Ephesians 2:9 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ephesians 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Salvation is not earned by human deeds. No one can boast about their merits.
Neville's Inner Vision
In this reading, the verse unveils a truth about your inner life: God is not a distant rewarder but the I AM within you, the living awareness that never depends on outward performance. If you identify with doing, you are leaving your true status as your own; yet the law of grace says your being is already complete. Not of works does not condemn effort, it redefines it: works can spring from a realized state rather than conjure the state. When you stop measuring yourself by deeds and shift to the inner I AM, you release the need to boast. Faith becomes trust in the inner movement of grace, a current that flows from your true identity, not from what you try to prove. Your salvation, seen through Neville's lens, is a present-tense realization: you are the beloved, already justified by the consciousness that you are, not by what you do. Allow imagination to disclose this inner kingdom, and let gratitude confirm that the self you are now is the one God honors.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and assume the state of grace as already yours. Say, 'I AM the I AM; I am saved by grace, not by works,' and let that feeling settle into your body.
