Hidden Birth of the Inner State
Exodus 2:2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Exodus 2 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Exodus 2:2 tells of a mother conceiving a son, recognizing him as good, and quietly concealing him for three months. This hints at an inner, protective incubation of a desired state within consciousness.
Neville's Inner Vision
Remember, the woman's body is your consciousness, and the child is a state you wish to realize. The conception is the moment you affirm a need or aspiration into the living tone of I AM. To see him as good is to acknowledge the inherent value of your new state, not its present appearance. The hiding for three months is inner incubation: you refrain from forcing results, you shelter the image, nourish it with imagination, and feel its truth. In Neville's terms, the only reality is the state of awareness you maintain. What seems external is merely the effect of your inner assumption. So you do not chase outcomes; you keep your ideal in the secret chamber of your mind until it has grown strong enough to manifest. Then, like the newborn, it emerges into tangible life when the inner readiness matches outer conditions. Trust the timing of I AM and the law that imaginal acts precede appearances.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Sit quietly and conceive your desired state as a goodly child in your inner womb. Declare 'I AM that I AM' and feel it real, then carry that image in consciousness for a fixed incubation period each day.
