Inner Law And Life's Consequence
Genesis 38:10 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 38 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse says the act displeased the LORD, resulting in death. From Neville's perspective, this signals an inner misalignment with the divine order and its life-suppressing consequence.
Neville's Inner Vision
To the reader, the line 'the thing which he did displeased the LORD' speaks not of a judge outside you, but of a dislodged state of consciousness. The act is a picture of refusing the inner law by attempting to control life's flow for personal gain. In Neville's tongue, the 'Lord' is the I AM within you, the living principle that sustains every act. When you act from a split mind—hiding, manipulating, or evading rightful obligation—the inner atmosphere sours and vitality ebbs; you 'slay' the life-energy within your own consciousness. The remedy is simple: revise your interpretation of circumstance to reflect the one living spirit in you, align with the divine pattern, and feel your life being governed by law. Assume you are obedient to the higher order of life, and the energy that would have been used for manipulation is now flowing in truth and multiplication. Repeat, feel, and dwell in the certainty that you are always seen, provided, and kept by the I AM.
Practice This Now
Sit in quietness and assume the state: I AM the life of God within me; I align with divine order now. Feel the inner energy rise as you accept responsibility and let life flow unmanipulated.
