Dream of Inner Providence

Genesis 20:6 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Genesis 20 in context

Scripture Focus

6And God said unto him in a dream, Yea, I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart; for I also withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touch her.
Genesis 20:6

Biblical Context

Genesis 20:6 shows God acknowledging Abraham's heart integrity and protecting him from sin, revealing inward providence and mercy.

Neville's Inner Vision

I tell you, in this Genesis dream, the scene is not elsewhere but inside your own consciousness. God as the I AM declares that your every act springs from the integrity already planted in your heart. When you hear, 'I know that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart,' you sense that your desires are governed by a law of love within you, not by fear or impulse. The other figure in the story—the king of Gerar—stands for the surface thoughts that would push you to violate your principle; yet your I AM withholds the impulse, mirroring your inner refusal to touch what would harm the whole. The mercy spoken is not punishment but the natural mercy of your higher self, preventing you from stepping beyond your own spiritual boundary. Thus Providence operates as you remain loyal to the ideal you seek. Your present safety and blessing come from the fidelity of your inner state. You are not at risk; you are guarded by the law of your consciousness and by the I AM that never leaves you.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: In a quiet moment, assume the I AM-state of perfect heart-integrity and feel it as real. Revise any fear by stating, 'I am the I AM, and my heart is loyal to truth.'
