Inner Petition, Outer Salvation
Esther 4:7-8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Esther 4 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Mordecai informs Esther of the plot and the decree to destroy the Jews. He also gives her a copy of the decree to show and instructs her to plead with the king for her people.
Neville's Inner Vision
Esther 4:7-8 is the inner drama of your consciousness. Mordecai appears as the quiet discernment within you, naming the events and the price demanded by fear: the decree to destroy the Jews is the inner record of limitation pressed upon your life. The copy of the decree is a fixed idea you have accepted as truth, a script that would crush your sense of wholeness unless revised. Yet Esther arises within your being as the I AM—your living, aware self capable of choosing the next movement. Going to the king is not a matter of a distant sovereign but of aligning with the inner authority that can grant a new outcome. The king represents your higher state of awareness that can hear a petition when you enter with conviction. By presenting your petition, you are not appealing to a man but to the law of consciousness that creates by assumption. The result is redemption: once you revise the inner atmosphere, the external threat loosens its grip and you awaken a new deliverance.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes and imagine you stand before the I AM, the inner king. Declare your petition for deliverance as already granted and feel the relief as truth.
