One Portion Above Brethren
Genesis 48:22 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Genesis 48 in context
Scripture Focus
Biblical Context
The verse speaks of a divinely given portion set apart for you, higher than your fellows. It signals an inner inheritance rooted in God's provision.
Neville's Inner Vision
Genesis 48:22 speaks in the language of the inner kingdom. What is given is not a possession for the ego, but a state of awareness that stands apart from the crowd of thoughts and fears. The inheritance is the recognition that you already possess the I AM, and that this 'one portion above thy brethren' is your higher center, reached not by struggle alone but by alignment: you imagine in the quiet you are the conqueror who took the Amorite's sword and bow in the hand of your own mind. The sword and bow symbolize the disciplined faculties—will and visualization—used by the I AM to clear a path. When you assume you are the chosen one, you let go of scarcity and claim a sovereignty that is always present as consciousness. You are not seeking a prize, you are becoming the ruler of your inner land, where Providence acts through your inner consent. The outer appears to shift only as the inner governor authorizes it.
Practice This Now
Close your eyes, breathe, and silently assume, I AM, I CLAIM my portion above all others now. Feel the inner throne as your daily reality until it shows up in your world.
