Neville Goddard on Exodus 9:29-30 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Exodus 9 in context

Scripture Focus

29And Moses said unto him, As soon as I am gone out of the city, I will spread abroad my hands unto the LORD; and the thunder shall cease, neither shall there be any more hail; that thou mayest know how that the earth is the LORD's.

30But as for thee and thy servants, I know that ye will not yet fear the LORD God.

Exodus 9:29-30

Biblical Context

Moses declares that after he leaves the city he will lift his hands to the LORD and the storm will cease, proving the earth belongs to the LORD. He also foreknows that Pharaoh and his servants will not yet fear the LORD.

Neville's Inner Vision

All that unfolds as thunder and hail is a figure of your inner weather. Moses is not a historical figure apart from you; he is the awakened state of consciousness you can assume. When he says he will spread abroad his hands unto the LORD, he is modeling your act of releasing the subconscious into the authority of God within you. The earth being the LORD's is the inner fact that your awareness is sovereign over appearances; storms and judgments arise to test your faith in that sovereignty, but they bow to the I AM that you are. Pharaoh and his servants stand for persistent habits of fear, resistance, and doubt; you know they will not yet fear the LORD God, yet your inner witness remains unshaken. The practical effect is that, as you inhabit the truth—'the earth is the LORD's' and 'I am that LORD'—the outer weather shifts to reflect your certainty. Providence is not a distant event but a present perception: your awareness acts, your life follows, and the light of this truth dissolves the illusion of separateness.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and, in the present tense, step from the city of doubt. Raise your hands and say, 'The earth is the LORD's,' and feel the inner storm quiet as your awareness asserts sovereign rule.
