Inner Covenant of Grace

Hebrews 8:6-7 - A Neville Goddard interpretation

Read Hebrews 8 in context

Scripture Focus

6But now hath he obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much also he is the mediator of a better covenant, which was established upon better promises.
7For if that first covenant had been faultless, then should no place have been sought for the second.
Hebrews 8:6-7

Biblical Context

The verses declare a now superior ministry and covenant, established on better promises; if the first covenant were faultless, a second would not be needed.

Neville's Inner Vision

Notice that the 'ministry' and the 'covenant' in Hebrews are not external contracts but inner states of consciousness. The 'mediator' is the I AM within—your constant self-awareness that bridges old lack to a new reality. When it says a better covenant established on better promises, hear it as an invitation to live from a higher state rather than chase external favor. The first covenant—the old pattern of striving—helped awaken longing, but it was not flawless; it pointed you toward a second covenant that you can now inhabit. The promises are not distant conditions but the vitally felt truths you begin to feel as real: grace that sustains you, security that cannot be shaken, redemption from fear, revelation of your true nature. By assuming and feeling as if this new covenant is already true, you let the inner mediator revise memory, revise lack, and revise future events. Your imagination is the altar; your mood is the flame; your I AM is the high priest who blesses every moment with assurance. In that inner alignment, the promised reality becomes your daily experience.

Practice This Now

Imaginative_act: Close your eyes and assume the I AM—the mediator within—and declare, 'I am under the better covenant now.' Feel the grace as present and allow one small circumstance to reflect that inner state.
