Mahanaim Within: Meeting Inner Angels
Genesis 32:1-2 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 32 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jacob travels and is met by the angels of God, whom he calls God's host, naming the place Mahanaim.
Neville's Inner Vision
Is this not your inner journey? Jacob’s path mirrors your present mood, and the angels are the awakenings of your states of consciousness. When he beholds them, he proclaims, This is God's host, and names the place Mahanaim. In the Neville Goddard sense, these angels are not outside beings but the I AM awakening to itself through your thoughts and feelings. The 'host' is the gathering of your faculties—perception, faith, courage, and protection—now conscious in one field of awareness. Mahanaim is the recognition that two streams of thought or two aspects of yourself stand in union, not in conflict. The event occurs when you stop looking for God elsewhere and acknowledge that God dwells as your I AM, here and now. Your life becomes a caravan of divine presence arranged as you imagine it. Imagination creates the meeting; belief in separation collapses. So, assume that you are already attended by this God-host; revise any sense of lack and feel the presence as real in your chest and nerves. The inner witness becomes the driver of your choices.
Practice This Now
Imaginative act: Close your eyes and silently declare, 'This is the host of God within me,' and feel the hosting energy surrounding you. Then revise a current concern by assuming the I AM is guiding it to completion with ease.
