Raising Power: Exodus 9:16

Neville's Inner Vision

Exodus 9:16, in the Neville Goddard sense, teaches that the I AM, the inner awareness, has raised a condition to show its power and to make its name known in the earth. Pharaoh stands not merely as a man, but as a state of consciousness—stubborn resistance, fear, and seeming external authority—that the I AM permits to rise so that the power within may be felt and recognized. The call here is not punishment but demonstration: by consciously assuming the reality that you are the I AM, you allow the outer scene to testify to that power. When you grasp that your life is the stage upon which your inner identity acts, you become a witness, and the outer world follows the rhythm of that inner declaration. The earth listens for the name you carry—the divine name—when you live from the awareness of being the I AM. This is true worship: recognizing God is within, and that every circumstance is raised to reveal that presence.
