Neville Goddard on Genesis 14:13-14 - Mystical Bible Interpretation

Read Genesis 14 in context

Scripture Focus

13And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram.

14And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.

Genesis 14:13-14

Biblical Context

Abram hears that his brother has been taken captive and he mobilizes 318 trained servants from his household to pursue the captors. This shows how inner resources, when activated, bring deliverance.

Neville's Inner Vision

Genesis 14:13-14 becomes your inner map of power. The escaped messenger is a whisper of awareness that a near state of being—your inner alliance—is not external but ready within your consciousness. Abram, the I AM at the center of your soul, mobilizes his trained servants—habits, disciplines, and beliefs born in your own house—three hundred and eighteen—into bold action when danger arises. They move through the mind to Dan, crossing boundaries you once believed real, until liberation is secured within. The outer rescue is the symbol of an inner deliverance already complete in consciousness. Providence does not arrive from without; it unfolds as you revise the scene in imagination, aligning thought, feeling, and choice with a victorious outcome. The message is simple: you are the I AM, and when your imagination is lived as fact, the world must conform to the picture you hold.

Practice This Now

Assume Abram’s role now: in a quiet moment, affirm that all needed support is already at hand in your inner house, and feel the victory as a present fact; then move forward with this revised scene in daily life.
