Neville Goddard on Esther 8:7-9 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Esther 8 in context

Scripture Focus

7Then the king Ahasuerus said unto Esther the queen and to Mordecai the Jew, Behold, I have given Esther the house of Haman, and him they have hanged upon the gallows, because he laid his hand upon the Jews.

8Write ye also for the Jews, as it liketh you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring: for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse.

9Then were the king's scribes called at that time in the third month, that is, the month Sivan, on the three and twentieth day thereof; and it was written according to all that Mordecai commanded unto the Jews, and to the lieutenants, and the deputies and rulers of the provinces which are from India unto Ethiopia, an hundred twenty and seven provinces, unto every province according to the writing thereof, and unto every people after their language, and to the Jews according to their writing, and according to their language.

Esther 8:7-9

Biblical Context

The king grants Esther and Mordecai permission to issue a new decree in the king's name, sealing it with the king's ring so it cannot be reversed; the decree is written across all provinces and languages to protect the Jews.

Neville's Inner Vision

Esther 8:7-9 beckons your inner sight to see the king as the I AM, governing authority within your own consciousness. The phrase written in the king's name and sealed with the king's ring is your potent word—an irrevocable decree issued by awareness itself. Haman, who attempted to destroy the Jews, stands for every old belief you choose to release; his removal by hanging is your release from fear-based conditions. The call to write for the Jews, to the lieutenants and rulers of the provinces, signifies that your new certainty reaches every quadrant of your mind—every thought, memory, and sensation—across languages and appearances. Once this decree is established in consciousness, it cannot be reversed by a contrary thought, for the written word is the law of your inner court. Providence then appears as the alignment of intention with truth, and salvation becomes the recognition that your life moves within the sovereign will you declare. The kingdom of God is here now as a vivid, purposeful awareness whose decrees are written in spirit and felt in flesh.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Pick a belief you want reversed. In a quiet moment, declare in the name of I AM that this belief is replaced by a new decree, seal it with the ring of truth, and feel it as already done.
