Inner Covenant Leadership
Genesis 18:19 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 18 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
God states He will guide Abraham to lead his family in the Lord's ways, enacting justice and judgment. Through that leadership, God will fulfill His promises to Abraham.
Neville's Inner Vision
Abraham is not a distant patriarch but a state of consciousness you may assume. The Lord’s claim, 'I know him,' is your recognition that you can govern your inner atmosphere. This state will command your inner household—habits, beliefs, impressions—to walk in the LORD's way, which is the way of justice and discernment. When you rule from that authority, obedience becomes a natural habit, not a forced rule; it is a steady alignment of seeing rightly, choosing rightly, and feeling rightly. That alignment prepares the soil for the promises to mature. The clause that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which He hath spoken of him is the assurance that as you hold this inner order, your outer life begins to reflect it. Your world arranges itself to mirror the dominant state you nurture. If you desire fulfillment, you do not seek it externally; you revise the inner scene, strengthen the image of a just, discerning mind, and live from that reality.
Practice This Now
Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and declare, 'I am the Abraham within; I command my inner household to keep the way of the LORD.' See the mind and feelings align to justice and discernment; dwell in that knowing until it becomes your standard.
