Neville Goddard on Exodus 17:10 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 17 in context

Scripture Focus

10So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill.

Exodus 17:10

Biblical Context

Joshua obeys Moses' command and engages the Amalekic threat; Moses, Aaron, and Hur ascend the hill, symbolizing elevated consciousness and prayer guiding action.

Neville's Inner Vision

Joshua is the man of action inside you, hearing Moses' word and stepping forward to meet the 'Amalek' of limitation. Amalek, the long night of doubt, rushes at the edge of your dream; yet the hill where Moses, Aaron, and Hur stand is your inner Hill of Awareness. Moses speaks the command from the I AM: go forth, fight, do not yield to fear. Aaron and Hur, the two leaning points of your awakened consciousness, lift the mind in prayer, keeping the vision steady as you move. When you realize that the hill is your own higher state, you see that the war is not 'out there' but in your decision to remain faithful to the inner light. As you align action with prayer, the appearance of struggle begins to resolve and your reality bends toward victory. The I AM—the presence you call God—does not change; your consciousness awakens to acknowledge that what you seek is already yours.

Practice This Now

Assume the hilltop of your consciousness now; imagine Joshua arising in you to meet the challenge as you obey the inner command. Feel the victory already yours as you stand in the I AM and sustain the scene with prayer.
