Lifting Inner Hands Hebrews 12:12
Hebrews 12:12 - A Neville Goddard interpretation
Read Hebrews 12 in context

Biblical Context
Hebrews 12:12 invites you to raise what is weak in spirit—your drooping hands and feeble knees—through inner restoration. It points to renewing strength by turning inward and aligning with your higher I AM.
Neville's Inner Vision
From the Neville Goddard vantage, these words do not command a physical lift alone, but a mental reorientation. The 'hands that hang down' and 'feeble knees' symbolize a state of consciousness worn by fear, doubt, or weariness. To lift them is to assume a new state of being. The verse is a directive to respond as if you already live in the power you seek; you are the I AM, the awareness that cannot be broken by circumstance. When you imagine yourself steadfast, your body follows—the limbs become steady because your inner state has shifted. The writer does not urge external effort but the inner revision: imagine the power that raises your hands; feel the texture of conviction coursing through your arms, knees, and spine. The act of lifting is your reaffirmation that you are not a victim of events but the author of them through imagination. Your ascent is not later but now, in the present mood of I AM, faith, and perseverance.
Practice This Now
Assume the state 'I AM strong now' and feel your hands rise and knees steady as you breathe. Hold that feeling for 2-3 minutes, then revisit the scene in imagination whenever doubt returns.
