Spirit Over Flesh: Inner Faith
Galatians 3:2-3 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Galatians 3 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Galatians 3:2-3 contrasts receiving the Spirit by faith with earning it by law, urging believers that they began in the Spirit and should not seek completion through the flesh.
Neville's Inner Vision
That question is a whisper to your inner state: has the Spirit been given you by the rules you keep, or by the trust you place in the unseen? The invitation here is not about external history but about your present awareness. Spirit is your awakening, the I AM that dwells as your true self. The 'works of the law' symbolize the mental habit of striving to earn wholeness through effort; the 'hearing of faith' is the inner listening to the conviction that you are already complete in God. Since you began in the Spirit, your daily life should not move back toward fleshly striving for completion. The law existed to point inward, but now you must live from that inner reality by means of imagination. Your outward experiences reflect your inner state: revise them by assuming you are whole, one with the I AM, and let the feeling-tone confirm it as you align your outer world with the truth you hold inwardly.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, and deliberately affirm, 'I have received the Spirit by faith; I am one with the I AM now.' Then feel as if the cheif reality of your life is this inner truth, and observe how your perception shifts.
