Genesis 16:8 Inner Flight

Genesis 16:8 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 16 in context

Scripture Focus

8And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.
Genesis 16:8

Biblical Context

Hagar asks where she came from and where she will go; she says she is fleeing from Sarai.

Neville's Inner Vision

From the Neville lens, the scene is not about geography but about the state of your own consciousness. Hagar represents a part of you that feels exiled by old conditions, Sarai symbolizing control, judgment, or the identity you learned to wear. The questions 'whence camest thou' and 'whither wilt thou go' are internal inquiries of the I AM, asking you where your sense of origin resides and toward what state you are directing attention. Her reply, 'I flee from the face of my mistress,' is the confession of a mind convinced it must escape condition to feel safe. Neville's method asks you to invert this by presuming the end state now: you are not fleeing; you are inhabiting a sovereign, liberating presence. Repeat, feel, and dwell in the awareness that governs your life. Let the inner movement that once cried for escape settle into stillness as you align with the I AM, the unchanging observer. In that alignment, external conditions dissolve, and you experience deliverance as a steady sense of right order, guidance, and liberation.

Practice This Now

Assume the end state now: I am free and guided by the I AM. Feel it real as you breathe, letting the old fleeing narrative dissolve into inner certainty.
