Read Genesis 21 in context

Scripture Focus

2For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Genesis 21:2

Biblical Context

The verse says Sarah conceived and bore Abraham a son in his old age, fulfilling God's promise at the appointed time.

Neville's Inner Vision

To the mystic, the birth of Isaac is the moment your I AM confirms reality to a long-awaited promise. Sarah's 'old age' represents a mind bound by doubt; the set time is when inner assurance activates the promise. God spoke within, and the 'son' becomes the manifestation of a persistent image your imagination has nourished until it takes form. Providence and guidance appear as harmonies of your own awareness aligning with your chosen image. Faith is the daily, unhurried trust that the I AM has already realized the end in the present moment, not by denying evidence but by rewriting it with consciousness. When you recognize that conception occurs in consciousness, you stop chasing outer events and revise your assumed state until it resonates as lived truth. You and the story of Abraham and Sarah become one in imagination, and creation becomes your conscious activity rather than a distant event.

Practice This Now

Imaginative Act: Close your eyes and assume the end as present now; feel the set time of your promise and dwell in the sensation of it as if already real.
