Redeeming Time, Inner Will
Ephesians 5:16-17 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Ephesians 5 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verses urge you to redeem time by choosing how you respond in the present; do not be unwise, but understand the Lord's will as your inner awareness.
Neville's Inner Vision
To Neville, redeeming the time is not a stopwatch task but a turning of consciousness. The days are evil only as they reflect a scattered mind. The command not to be unwise invites you to cultivate a state of understanding—the readiness of the I AM to direct each moment. The will of the Lord is your own awareness in alignment, the steady posture that says I AM and I know what I desire and what is true. When you identify as the I AM, time bends to your steady command, for events are inner movements of consciousness, not external misfortunes. Discernment arises as you stop wandering and ask, What is the will I am choosing now? Your true will is not an object to seek but a state to inhabit—confidence, clarity, calm. Each choice to align with that inner will reduces the sense of chaos and reveals a path forward. The evil days mirror your current inner state; reform that state and the outward hours reveal their flow.
Practice This Now
In the next moment, assume you are the I AM in charge. Revise an anxious thought by declaring I am the will of the Lord in this moment, and feel it as real.
