Inner Waters Create Life

Genesis 1:20 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 1 in context

Scripture Focus

20And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Genesis 1:20

Biblical Context

God speaks and commands the waters to teem with life and birds to fill the sky. Creation begins with a spoken decree that sets life in motion.

Neville's Inner Vision

In Neville's view, the 'waters' symbolize the currents of your subconscious. When you say 'Let the waters...' you are fashioning a state of consciousness that births becoming. The 'moving creature that hath life' and the 'fowl that may fly' are images of vitality and freedom arising as you entertain a new, solid assumption. The 'open firmament of heaven' is the clear, unblocked awareness—the I AM where possibilities move. God said, and it was; thus imagination creates reality: you awaken God within, your awareness, and declare what your world will be. The key is to choose a complete, affirmative state that covers feeling and belief, and to hold it by mental rehearsal until it feels present. The verse invites you to bring order by command, replacing lack with abundance, limitation with lift, and fear with faith.

Practice This Now

Close your eyes and assume, 'In me now, the waters move with abundant life.' Feel it, see it forming, and rest in the conviction that your world is already ordered by that life.
