Right Hand of Blessing: Inner Alignment
Genesis 48:13-15 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 48 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
Jacob brings Ephraim and Manasseh close, guiding their heads with his hands; he invokes the God of Abraham and Isaac as he blesses Joseph, affirming divine provision.
Neville's Inner Vision
Israel represents the state of awareness within you; his hands show how to order inner forces. Ephraim, the younger, on the right, stands for a fresh possibility you consciously favor, while Manasseh, the elder, on the left, marks habits and memories you do not need to resist but place in proper perspective. Jacob’s crossing of the hands illustrates that true blessing comes from inner alignment rather than outward order. By placing the right hand on the newer form and the left on the older, you mobilize Providence through faith and imagination. The blessing invokes the God before whom your ancestors walked, signifying that your present I AM is the continuation of that inner-guided life. You sustain yourself by imagination and trust; your life becomes the embodiment of a consciously decreed blessing. This is how you claim your future by aligning inner acts with the divine I AM.
Practice This Now
Act now: sit quietly, imagine you are blessing a future outcome by placing your 'right hand' of belief on its head, while your 'left hand' honors a past pattern you choose to release; feel the warmth of the blessing and declare, 'God precedes me; I am fed and guided by Providence.'
